Here is the first story (complete with pictures) I received as a response to my request for gluten-free finds from our readers. This sweet story will warm your heart.
A little over a year ago, my parents decided to open a restaurant in North Conway, NH. Around this same time I was diagnosed with celiac disease. My parents witnessed first hand how difficult it was for me to have a pleasant dining experience at most restaurants, so it became their mission to learn how to cook gluten-free for me and their other customers. My uncle is the head chef at the restaurant and went above and beyond to learn how to cook gluten-free and avoid cross contamination. I live in the Boston area, so I don't get to North Conway as often as I would like, but it is one of the few places that I can get fried foods, pasta dishes, pizza and dessert all in one place! I am not simply writing this to plug my parents restaurant, but I am writing this because this is one of the very few places that I truly feel comfortable and confident that I am getting a safe gluten-free meal. I cannot thank my parents or uncle enough for all of the research and hard work that they have done in order to make this happen.
So if anyone is ever in the North Conway area I strongly suggest you check out Rafferty's Restaurant & Pub. They have TVs to watch sports, it's family friendly, and they are happy to accommodate other dietary needs.
Sincerely,
Jenn Rafferty
You can almost hear them saying, "We love you, Jen!"
Anyone else been to Rafferty's?
