Solare Restaurant in San Diego

 I can not say enough good things about Solare Restaurant


Start with Antipasti

The homemade GF bread with EVOO for dipping is delicious

Move on to salads

Trust me you can not go wrong with the Pear and Gorgonzola salad.

They have pasta and pizza, both which can be made GF

And lots of entrees

My favorite is the tomahawk pork chop

Be sure to save room for dessert.

I always get the mousse.

The staff is super knowledgeable and almost everything can be modified to be GF if it is not marked on the menu. I have eaten here dozens of times and never had any issues.

Enjoy!

Mountain Mike's Pizza

Pizza. One of the things we GF folk miss is pizza, grabbing a slice, ordering a pie, delivery pizza at home. It has been two years since the GF Food Expo in San Diego where I met the owner of the two local  Mountain Mike's Pizza.   He told me a story about his daughter, who has to be GF, and how his restaurants offer safe GF Pizza.  I kept thinking I would stop in - its been two years.  Sam Golding owns the shop in Clairemont Mesa and I believe another in San Carlos. Its not far but not close, so I didn't venture down to the Clairemont shop.  And, I'm apprehensive about new places.  I hate getting sick from contamination. This is the Gluten Free Menu. Let me tell you it was a great experience.  The girl behind the counter knew what she was talking about, they have a good GF menu - not just pizza (they even have three GF beers), and the pizza was delicious. The GF crusts are small, 10 inch.  They are GF, soy, egg and dairy free. ...

Ghostfish Gluten Free Beer

I noticed that I have been slacking on the blog updates.  I do have some recipes to add and a bunch of new GF products that I have found.  But, one of the best new additions I have found was another dedicated GF Brewery out of the incredible Pacific Northwest.  Home to beautiful mountains, rivers, steelhead, salmon and GF Beer.  My other favorite GF beer is just south of these guys in Portland, Oregon - Groundbreaker Brewing  (The brew pub is also a block away from my favorite GF Bakery - New Cascadia Traditional. I found out about  Ghostfish Brewing  after hearing about all of the medals they won at the 2015 Beer events.  They are another dedicated GF Brewer located in Seattle, Washington.  Three guys making great GF beer. I was able to get my hands on three of their beers.  They did not last very long because they were all very good. Grapefruit IPA This won the Bronze Medal at the 2015 Great American Beer Festival.  Its...

Gluten Free Lipstick?

Yes, Lipstick.  No, I do not wear women's makeup, but my wife does.  In a way to prevent me from getting contaminated I looked into Gluten Free lipstick to match some of her colors for stocking stuffers. Well, not that easy.  I first looked on websites - not that great.  I emailed some more companies and the responses were all over the board. This is what I can summarize for you. Dior give the okay that none of their lipsticks contain gluten and are not produced on lines that contain gluten. Estee Lauder okay except signature Hydra Lustre which has wheat. The Bobbi Brown rep of Estee was extremely helpful and responsive.  This is what she sent Lip Color - Ingredients derived from Soy and Corn. Rich Lip color SPF 12- contains ingredients derived from Soy and Corn. Creamy Lip Color - Ingredients derived from Soy and Corn. Metallic Lip Color - Ingredients derived from Corn and Soy. Treatment Lip Shine SPF 15 - Contains ingredients derived from Wheat,...
