Gluten-free pizza party video

We came we ate it was delicious.  I went along with the North Texas GIG to taste the new gluten-free pizza at Uno Chicago Grill in Fort Worth.  Check out my video about the experience!

Gluten-Free precautions at Uno Chicago Bar & Grill

Yesterday I spoke with a manager at the Fort Worth Uno Chicago Bar & Grill.  He said several interesting things about their new Gluten-Free pizza crust:

• They also serve Redbridge Beer - which is GF
  
• The crust is made in a gluten-free kitchen which is off site
  
• The crusts are brought into the restaurant in  a completely sealed container and are stored far away from any of the flour crusts.
  
• There are usually plenty of crusts on hand, but if you're driving a long way, you might want to call ahead and make sure they have some in stock.
  
• The crusts come individually wrapped with their own pans.
  
• They only use clean tools to prepare the pizzas.
  
• They use separate gluten-free toppings - cheese and pepperoni only at this time. They are working on a way to keep all of their toppings free of cross contamination, but they haven't figured it out yet.
  

Countdown to Gluten-Free Pizza Party!

The Gluten-Free pizza party at Pizzeria Uno Chicago Bar & Grill is this Thursday at 7PM at Uno's, 300 Houston Street, Fort Worth, 76102.  Click here for more information. I'm going this afternoon to speak with a couple of the managers to find out what kind of precautions they've taken against cross-contamination.  I'll write more tomorrow about what they said!  

Gluten-Free Pizza Party in Downtown Fort Worth

It's really happening, Uno Chicago Grill is working with the North Texas Gluten Intolerance Group to throw a Gluten-Free pizza party.  Below is the information if you would like to attend.

Please respond if you are interested in meeting for a night out at Uno's Chicago Grill for a gluten free get-together. The manager would need to know in advance how many GF pizza crusts he would need to have on hand if it's a large group.

If you can meet on Thursday, January 29 at 7PM at Uno's, 300 Houston Street, Fort Worth, 76102, please let me know. If there is enough interest, I will make the reservation. He only keeps about 20 GF pizza crusts on hand and would have to order more if our group is larger than 20 people.

Let me know right away please.
