It’s been a while since I’ve had the opportunity to have lunch at Nourish, but I was in town doing a bit of Fathers’ Day shopping, so I dropped in with my 4 year old. I love eating at Nourish. It’s one of the few places where I don’t have to even mention that I’m coeliac, … Continue reading
I’ve had some fun this afternoon making retro fairy cakes using a gluten free Vanilla Sponge Mix from Sheffield company Delicious Alchemy, who have very kindly sent me a few samples to try. I’m hoping there will be a few left to share at my little boy’s friend’s birthday picnic on Monday… I started with … Continue reading
I recently made a discovery that there’s a fab gluten free food company on my doorstep, in the centre of Sheffield. Delicious Alchemy was set up by coeliac Emma Killilea, who discovered she was coeliac after having a bad reaction to some wheat that had become stuck in her sock! According to the company website, Emma was … Continue reading
There’s a new kid on the block in the form of Gluten Free Sheff, a website and resource about being coeliac in Sheffield. The author is Gemma Clear, a student living in Sheffield, who was diagnosed last year. She’s put together a really nice looking site that focuses on local places to eat where the … Continue reading
Hubby and I decided to make the most of a child-free couple of days during half term, and booked a meal at Brocco on the Park, a restaurant & hotel at Hunter’s Bar. We’d been looking forward to it for ages, and having browsed their rather slick website, I knew they catered for coeliacs, so … Continue reading

I’ve seen on their website that Lokanta have introduced their first entirely gluten free menu, having found that much of their food naturally lends itself to being gluten free. This is their new early bird menu, and they’re planning to add a gluten free symbol … Continue reading
Looking at my recent posts, we seem to have eaten out a lot recently! Last weekend I finally made it to Eten Cafe in Sheffield, a cafe/bistro I’ve been intending to get to for some time. We had some visitors for the weekend so hubby, the kids and I took them on the train into Sheffield … Continue reading
This is nothing at all to do with food but I wanted to share it anyway. It’s just the ice that had formed on my car windscreen this morning. I wish I understood how this comes about. It was so pretty and feather-like, and it reminded me how remarkably beautiful the world can be. Then … Continue reading
I took my boys for a half term treat to the National Emergency Services Museum in Sheffield city centre this week. They had a great time climbing in and out of the fire engines and ambulances and trying on the fire fighters’ helmets! I searched for somewhere for lunch within (the kids’) walking distance from … Continue reading
Great news! The Carluccio’s Italian restaurant chain is going to try to work with Coeliac UK to gain the gluten free accreditation. Last week, I wrote about my trip to the new Carluccio’s restaurant on Eccy Road in Sheffield – see my previous blog post. I had a great time, but subsequently found their disclaimer … Continue reading
