There may not be a restaurant in Santa Barbara loved by both locals and tourists alike as much as Brophy Brothers. With views of the harbor and mountains, it is a great spot to grab a drink and some seafood. There was a group of 5 of us and it was a beautiful day, so we knew there would be a little bit of a wait. We were told 35 minutes, but it ended up being a little over an hour. When we were finally seated and I had a chance to check out the menu, I noticed they had gluten-free buns. After talking to our waitress about cross contamination with the bun, I ordered the tuna melt. It had a heaping amount of tuna with melted, gooey cheese. It typically comes with fries, but they are made in a contaminated fryer. I turned down salad as a side since I figured the tuna melt would be plenty of food, which it was.

My son was adamant that he didn’t want a traditional Thanksgiving meal. We compromised by having turkey burgers with mashed potatoes and green beans. For dessert, we had pumpkin pie from @locavivantkitchen and apple pie from @lilacpatisserie . I hope you all had a wonderful day surrounded by people you love and with delicious food free from gluten!
If there was a perfect day to have a big bowl of soup, this would be it. My husband and I picked up some soups from @organicsoupkitchen after I found out that they were all gluten-free, nut-free (excluding coconut) and sesame-free. I had the Tuscan white bean and kale soup and enjoyed it with some @canyonglutenfree bread.
Just before Halloween, my daughter had her next round of appointments @socalfoodallergy . This time we stayed in Los Angeles rather than the Long Beach area.
Fall weather is finally here! Today, I enjoyed lunch @bettinapizzeria with a friend. After finding out that their potato and leek soup and kale salad were both naturally GF, I ordered them. The salad was definitely tasty but the soup… holy moly. Do yourself a favor and get this soup before it gets swapped out for a different seasonal offering. It was so incredibly delicious. They surprised us with a naturally GF passion fruit pavlova for dessert which also blew my mind as it was so flavorful!
If you are looking for a good happy hour, look no further than @islandssb - their happy hour menu includes these cheese fries which you can specify to be made in a dedicated gluten-free fryer. I also had the Cobb salad without the blue cheese (preference). Now that hockey season is starting, I can see a lot more of these cheese fries in my future while watching the @nyrangers on one of their huge TVs!
Today’s special from @lilacpatisserie was potato leek soup and a panzanella salad. The garlicky croutons were fantastic. I also got some baked goodies to bring home. If you don’t get a box of treats to go, you aren’t doing it right!
