Little Saigon makes me wish I had two stomachs

Ok,
That was legit. 

I am still digesting that glorious meal and I just had to post about it.

How have I never had this place?  Several of you have probably mentioned this place to me and I must have had headphones in because SERIOUSLY it is incredible. 

The pork and shrimp spring rolls were sweet, crunchy and almost fooled us into believing we were eating healthy.  We absolutely loved the sweet fish sauce and bathed them in it. 

That same fish sauce went quite well with our meals. 

I had something boring called like, "chicken with noodles" or something like that.  Although it was not boring.  It was glorious.  They had gluten free soy sauce as well.  My wife had Pad Thai, which was also great.  The meat was tender, the vegetables offered the perfect compliment and there is one thing I still need to mention. 

The food is basically served in bath tubs.  How in the world they can afford to feed me for my next six meals is beyond me, but $8.50 seems downright cheap when you see the portions.  Please, please frequent this place.  The staff has varying levels of knowledge about gluten but they are all willing to ask. 

Go there now. 

A toasted gluten free sandwich at Jason's deli

The wife and I recently got a gift card to Jason's deli and decided it was time for another visit.
The gentleman helping us suggested us trying the bread toasted.  Instead I had to whole sandwich toasted.  It was incredible.  It didn't fall apart this time.  That is the way to go in the future.

Oh yes, it tastes better than it looks!

Best of Wichita 2010

Best gluten free Grocery Store- Food For Thought.
You cannot beat the selection.  The frozen food section is vast.  They have aisles of gluten free stuff.
Runner up- Green Acres.  Great selection.





Best gluten free Asian food-  PF Changs, seriously the food is amazing and they treat you like royalty.
Runner up- Pei Wei.  I wish we had one on the east side.
                          Hu Hot kinda scares me every time.  So much cross contamination.



Best gluten free Fast food-  Five Guys!- Greasy and not the cheapest but incredible.
Love that dedicated fryer.
Runner up- Wendy's.  Meh...

Best gluten free BBQ-  Hog Wild Pit BBQ-  It's messy, sweet, tangy, spicy and very good.  But don't be late they close at eight.
Runner up- Dolci and Joe's.  They make their own BBQ sauce.

Best gluten free Sea Food- Bone Fish Grill- Pretty good.
Runner up- If you can get Yia Yia's to make those crab cakes for you.

















Best gluten free Italian-  Yia Yia's-  My wife likes the gluten free pizza.  I like the pasta.
Runner up- NONE, try harder Olive Garden and Godfather's....gross, Carino's is closed.
                     I've never had Carrabba's but the menu has no pasta, blech.






Best gluten free Mexican-  Tie for first Pablano- It is like Chipotle only better and cheaper.
Also tied for first is Carlos O' Kelly's- I do like the  cheesy enchilladas.  I love the chips and Salsa.
Runner up- Chipotle- expensive but good.   I've never tried Abuelo's. Too expensive.


Best gluten free Americana meal-  Jason's deli- Gluten free bread and great service.
Runner up- Red Robin- Don't forget to leave off the seasoning.
Chili's got my order wrong and made me wait a long time once.  Haven't been back.














Best gluten free Dessert- Baskin Robins-  Yum, yum, yum.
Runner up- Dairy queen.
 I love Orange Leaf but they have no idea whats in their food.  I am not including the awesome dessert at PF Changs.  There is also a fun one at Outback Steakhouse.  Wild Thyme Cafe is great but I've only had people bring me stuff from there.


Do you guys have any other favorites in Wichita?  Post them please! I would love to share and support them.

As always, every time you go somewhere check with them to make sure things are gluten free.  I have been stupid in the past and I will again.
