STORES & RESTAURANTS NEWS
A fellow gluten-free comrade from "down south" (by Black Diamond, WA) wrote
to share some of the GF resources available in that neck of the woods, in
case you are traveling this summer. Thanks to Mikey for sharing the information!
In case you travel South, Nature's Market in Kent, WA is a fantastic place
to shop and purchase all sorts of GF items. They also have several GF Food
Festivals which allow you to taste their products. Just down the road from the
market is an incredible new GF Bakery called Haley's Bakery
_http://www.haleyscorner.com_ (http://www.haleyscorner.com) that has amazing pastries, cookies
& cakes. Sunny Valley Wheat Free is another bakery in Maple Valley that makes
some very tasty scones, amaranth chips and bread-like items.
Sojo Foods has frozen dinner entrees that are gluten-free. They are a local
company (Enumclaw, Washington) _www.sojofoods.com_ (http://www.sojofoods.com)
. They do sell some of their foods to some Fred Meyers, Top Foods, Whole
Foods and a Co-op in Bellingham. They are also open to direct buying.
The Basil Cafe in Bayview has an extensive GF menu. Be sure to check them
out!
The Mad Crab Restaurant in Coupeville has gluten-free menu items. Be sure to
ask!
Also Christopher's in Coupeville was able to make accommodations for special
needs, although I am not certain if a specific gluten-free menu is available.
Pilgrim's Vitamins store in Oak Harbor is now selling Dowd & Rogers cake
mixes made with Italian Chestnut Flour, plus the pure flour. Check them out for
their other gluten-free product lines.
