I generally don’t go out for Sunday lunch because, as a coeliac, what’s on offer is rarely as good as I can make at home. We tend to have a roast most weekends – usually chicken, beef or pork, sometimes with Yorkshire puds and stuffing (which are rarely gluten free in restaurants), always with mountains … Continue reading

It was hosted by the Coeliac UK Sheffield Group at their usual meeting venue, St Mary’s on Bramall Lane. Sarah started by telling us about Sheffield’s leadership in coeliac disease … Continue reading

There were five families in all, with children, and out of nineteen of us, an impressive four are gluten free.

The first time I tried some filled GF tortellini I totally overcooked it, and it turned to mush, so I’ve not bought any for a … Continue reading

Schär’s dietitians are answering questions about symptoms, diagnosis, and gluten free food all this week. Pop over to their Facebook page for more info. Continue reading
I haven’t been in the Devonshire Cat for years. It’s a real ale pub on Wellington Street in the city centre’s Devonshire Quarter, operated by the local Abbeydale Brewery. It had quite a big refurb in 2014, so it has a fresh, modern look. The Dev Cat has just launched a new food menu with a … Continue reading
