A couple of weeks ago I brought you information on a new cookbook by Robert Landolphi called Gluten Free Every Day Cookbook geared towards those suffering from Celiac Disease and those looking for a Gluten-Free Diet.

May has been designated as Celiac Awareness Month and restaurants across the U.S. and Canada are hoping to help you make better choices while dining out.

Chef to Plate: Celebrating Restaurants Serving Up Gluten-Free Awareness is an international awareness campaign initiated by the Gluten Intolerance Group of North America and endorsed by organizations and companies in the US and Canada. The campaign celebrates restaurants that currently offer gluten free menu options. Many restaurants held a special recognition event on Sunday, May 3. Others will display posters and table tents throughout the month of May.

“We are thrilled by the level of participation. It shows a commitment from restaurants to serve the gluten intolerant community,” says Cynthia Kupper, Executive Director of the Gluten Intolerance Group of North America (GIG).
