A couple of friends have emailed me in the past week about Lazzaroli Pasta in Germantown. They have a Spelt Pasta that is made without semolina and subsitutes Light Spelt Flour. Check them out at 1314 5th Avenue North * Historic Germantown * Nashville and let me know what you think!
Lenny’s Sub Shop fills the Philly cheesesteak void
November 19, 2008 By Leave a Comment
So, I haven’t been eating out at all recently so sorry no updates! I did run out to lunch today though and grabbed one of my favorite things, the grilled steak salad at Lenny’s. I use to love philly cheese steaks and well, not I miss them. Thanks to Lenny’s, now I can basically have one, just without the bread. After a year of not having a philly cheese steak… you won’t miss the bread at all!
Matteo’s Gluten Free Pizza in Nashville
September 28, 2008 By 4 Comments
So I finally was able to try out Matteo’s Gluten Free Pizza out in Cool Springs. While I truly appreciate the trouble they went through to create this and know they use top quality ingredients, I have to say it is far from my favorite. I had the Italian sausage one and my wife had one with black olives. The sausage was large pieces, I generally prefer crumbled. The crust reminded me of a thick whole wheat crust, I prefer thin crust. So all in all, it was not a hit with me. I do, however, think this would be perfect for children or a party that you need to get something together quick for. If you truly want a great pizza in Nashville, I still think you need to take the time to go to Whole Foods and grab a pizza crust to make your own or go to Dad’s Gluten Free Pizza.
Gojo Ethiopian Restaurant… mmmmm

So, for the first time last night I had Ethiopian food. We ate at Gojo at 415 W. Thompson Lane in Nashville. I have to say it was great. The staff was great and very helpful with my gluten issue. Their injera bread is made with teff (which is gluten free) but they do mix it so stay away. The meats are great though and they were able to suggest things that I could have and made sure mine was separated from the other folks I was eating with. I highly recommend them!
Gluten Free Beer

Where has it gone? New Grist was my favorite and you could find it at Whole Foods and Frugal McDoogal’s, now you can’t find it anywhere. I saw it a month ago at Whole Foods and they raised the price to almost $10/ 6 pack. They have RedBridge now, which is OK I guess but definitely not worth $8. Anybody know where New Grist gluten free beer has gone in Middle Tennessee?
