Petition to add bread sauce to the list of acceptable festive fries toppings? I told y’all I wasn’t saving all the good stuff til after “the big day” this year and I wasn’t lying! Cant stop won’t stop 🥳

You asked for it! I’m really hoping this list isn’t exhaustive so let me know if I’ve missed any gluten free festive fries out there.

📍 BRAE - Ballygowan
Somewhere we’ve wanted to try for so long and a bit of a disaster in timekeeping on our anniversary gave us the opportunity to turn lemons in to tartar sauce.
The Christmas chips had to be done and that whack of Turkey breast there was super impressive! I wish we had pulled over and just ate in the car but even after the half hour to get home everything was still super tasty even though the crispy items had soften a bit. 8/10 only losing points because I’m a dark meat girl and a lack of stuffing 😉

Here’s a question though, I don’t like sharing places I haven’t tried in proper posts or reels but would y’all be interested in hearing about the gluten free Christmas chips around NI that I’m aware of but haven’t fully vetted yet?

I was not in the mood to come across this today. We nipped to Holywood exchange to grab some gf essentials but the fridges were broken (it happens) and no one had any clue about where the unspoiled stock was being kept or if there were any plans to put them in to a temporary bay. That’s just not good enough. The free from gluten,nuts, and dairy ranges are not “nice to haves” they are medical necessities and as such should be given priority. Did you know that you we can register for priority service repair in case your electric goes out? Because we often cannot just go to a different shop and section. Gluten free food is medicine and access to safe chilled items is not as trivial as it may sound.

Welcome to the crew hun! We don’t have badges (yet) but we do have way too much knowledge about all of our inner workings 😅

If you don’t know Alison from Passions & Preening is one of the OG NIblogger gals who I’ve known since way back in another life, her coeliac journey is just starting so might be of interest to you all especially up in the north coast area and I’m sure she’ll be searching out all the good spots.

1_at_causeway_st is the new child of the amazing team behind thetidesportrush and The Newbridge and you know I love these restaurants and recommend them loads
They all have their own vibe and food style and now with me just being diagnosed coeliac a few weeks ago I’ve been asking local restaurants about not only their gluten free food but also their cross contamination safety etc and when I spoke to Ruth at 1 causeway I am blown away by the menu and the care they are taking to be super inclusive

I’ve looked at quite a few menus round the north coast the past few weeks and honestly this blows them outta the water, they haven’t gone for the big standard GF offerings they’ve really thought about giving people who either choose gf or must eat gf for health reasons an amazing menu
I can’t wait to visit soon!! Lots of luck guys with the new venture
