Inman Park’s Restaurant Week lasts through September 27^th with participating restaurants offering a  three course menu for only $35.  Unfortunately, those of us with celiac disease often avoid those fixed price dinners because everything tends to be prepared ahead of time, making it more difficult to ensure gluten-free options.

Here’s the good news!  Shaun’s Restaurant’s menu for Restaurant Week has noted what’s gluten free on their menu and each course has a GF option.  These items include:

Eggplant soup with garlic pickles and organic micro basil

Grilled Scottish Salmon with mustard mashed potatoes, organic okra, and creole sauce

Micro brew root beer float with homemade vanilla bean ice cream

Sounds delicious!  I would still make sure to tell the manager when you call for reservations about your dietary needs and remind your server once you arrive.  You can never be too cautious!

I also checked out Wisteria’s Restaurant Week menu which is another celiac friendly restaurant.  Their menu has about five choices for each course so I think they would be willing to accommodate as well.  (The more options, the better on a fixed price menu.)

Certain items on Wisteria’s menu that look GF or modifiable to be gluten free include the arugula and grilled apple salad, the pork tenderloin and the shrimp and grits.  Definitely make sure that you ask about gluten-free preparations when you call to make you reservations.  When I’ve been to Wisteria in the past, they’ve been great about meeting my needs and making me whatever I wanted.

Let me know if you hear of any other Restaurant Week locations that are gluten free!
