It is really warm out today (I am not complaining) so I wanted something light for lunch. I picked up the Chicken Salad Salad from Panino in Montecito. This was incredibly tasty and filling. If you ever go wine tasting up near Los Olivos, they have a location up there that is the perfect place to get salads to go and have a picnic on one of the winery properties! (And for your gluten-eating friends and family, they have great sandwiches to choose from too. Now if only we could get them to carry GF bread…)

Last week, I ordered the special halibut from @cadario_ristorante which was delicious. It came with a tomato, olive and caper sauce that was 🔥. It was gluten-free as is but I still made sure that it was made on a clean surface.
I had seen @alessiapatisserie post about having some gluten-free items, so I decided to check it out. They are located in the Presidio neighborhood where Sojourner Café and and Miso Hungry were, both spots that were super GF-friendly.
Yesterday, I celebrated Taco Tuesday with some shrimp tacos from @lurefishhouse - they were gluten-free as is, but I needed to request to have them made on a clean surface to ensure no cross-contamination. I chose to have mine with the cilantro corn salad which went great with the tacos! I have always found the staff at Lure to be knowledgeable about cross-contamination. When ordering, the waitress was quick to inform me that the tortillas were GF but that they were made in a facility with gluten. It is so nice to have all of the pertinent information so that I can decide for myself what I am comfortable with eating.
Last summer, we discovered the easiest recipe for no churn ice cream from @spendpennies - we’ve experiment with lots of tasty add-ins over the past year like @kinnikinnickgf KToos, @free2bfoods mini sun cups and Nutella. This week my daughter had the idea of mixing in brownies so we bought one of the @lilacpatisserie brownie mixes and got to work. The result was delicious and there were plenty of brownies left over to enjoy on their own!
To celebrate Italy’s win yesterday, we got takeout from @oliosantabarbara - I had the Burrata con Prosciutto to start which was GF as is. I then had the Favorita salad as my main dish which was also gluten-free. Both dishes were sizable so I found myself quite full at the end of the meal.
We ordered takeout from @opal_sb for dinner last night. I had the Chilean Seabass with a Jalapeño Cilantro Cream Sauce. It came with risotto, veggies and a roasted corn and wild mushroom salsa. The dish is naturally gluten-free, but I was able to confirm that they prepare it in a clean pan with clean tools rather than any shared surfaces.
