Gluten-Free Restaurants NYC: Petit Cafe

Please welcome Tim Mitchell, the second dude confident enough to guest blog here at Celiac Chicks! ~Kelly

Remember being able to go out for French toast on Saturday morning?  Well, at Petit Cafe you can do just that.  Though Petit Cafe has always offered some gluten free items since opening two years ago, they have now started offering gluten-free French toast served at any time daily.  You can choose between white or multi-grain breads, served with either a maple, blueberry, or strawberry syrup.  Though the menu is not strictly gluten free, there is also a variety of sandwiches that can be prepared with gluten-free bread, a daily gluten-free soup, and they have gluten-free cookies and brownies as well.  They will also soon be offering a gluten-free mac 'n cheese.

Pala Pizza Adds Rice Balls To Their Gluten-Free Menu [NYC]

UPDATE 2/26/09: Edena wanted me to let you know that they are no longer making these with the vegan cheese. People kept asking for them to be made with real mozzarella. These also aren't made in a separate gluten-free fryer, so eat at your own risk.

Delicious gluten-free arancini, or rice balls, are now available at Pala. These little darlings are not only gluten-free, but they are also casein-free, dairy-free, corn-free--and vegan! Most importantly though, they are DELICIOUS. 

Pala also serves Bard's Tale gluten-free beer now too!

Thank you, Pala!
