This week I heard of yet another Sheffield restaurant with a great report of gluten free food, via @MalSannie on Twitter. Akentannos is a restaurant and bar on Sharrow Vale Road specialising in Sardinian food and their website says they have a strong reputation for gluten free dishes. Apparently, the chef is coeliac, which is reassuring … Continue reading

Banana bread
Bananas generally get scoffed in our house. I like them a bit under-ripe, so they have a bit of bite, then there’s usually a window of opportunity of a few days when the boys will eat them, before they start to go brown. After that, we usually keep them to make pancakes at the weekend. … Continue reading
Where can I get a pint?
I was recently asked to recommend pubs in Sheffield that serve gluten free beer. I couldn’t easily answer because frankly I don’t get out enough, but I’m also more of a wine or gin girl. I thought I’d best find out where’s good to go, so very unscientifically, I got in touch with a few … Continue reading
New gluten free menu at Browns
I’m always very excited to hear about local eateries with a dedicated gluten free menu as it’s so lovely to feel you have options when deciding what to eat. It’s no fun to be confronted with all the enticing menu items you can’t eat or even worse, when you have to study the dreaded allergen list in the ring … Continue reading
Cello cafe, Greenhill
I recently had the pleasure of meeting Chris Badham, the chef/owner of Cello cafe in Greenhill, who’s recently been diagnosed coeliac. Which means, of course, that he’s got an excellent understanding of safe catering for coeliacs, so his cafe should be a really great place to go! The cafe doesn’t have a website, but has … Continue reading
Cafe review: Made by Jonty
I’ve been meaning to go to this well reputed cafe on Sharrow Vale Road for ages now. We finally got round to going last Saturday while the boys were busy. Made by Jonty is a very popular, bustling little cafe in Sharrow, next door to Sheffield legend Pete McKee’s gallery. We had to wait for … Continue reading
Fresh gluten free bread in Sainsbury’s
It’s been an exciting week for coeliacs in Sheffield* as our local big Sainsbury’s stores started selling freshly baked gluten free bread! And we all raved about it because it’s extremely good. It was Sunday afternoon when we made it to our local Sainsbury’s (Archer Road) so the shelves were rather decimated, but we were … Continue reading
Home made southern fried chicken
I spend quite a lot of time looking for nutritious recipes to cook for the family, but it’s also nice to make comfort food. I’ve been meaning to try this for a while now as I had some buttermilk in the freezer, but there are hundreds of recipes to choose from online. I chose this recipe by … Continue reading
Pub review: The Doctor’s Orders
We were looking for somewhere to go for a Sunday lunch with my mother in law, who lives in Broomhill, and Tripadvisor suggested The Doctor’s Orders, which is right next to the Hallamshire hospital on Glossop Road. We’d always thought it was just a student pub, but it has very good reviews on Tripadvisor for … Continue reading
No more BBQ at The Hop :-(
I’m sorry to say that the BBQ Collective has left The Hop bar in Sheffield. Thanks to @impything for letting me know via Twitter. According to their website, the residency at The Hop was fixed term, and it has expired. However, they hope to come back in 2017 with some exciting new ventures. Continue reading
