I spent yesterday at the Nourished Food Blogger Conference. I could write for weeks about what I learned there. I probably will. For now I am going to start with something utterly selfish. If you live in Chicago or nearby, be on the lookout for a new restaurant opening later this year. The place is called Senza. It is true fine dining from a gluten-free kitchen. Think food like you would have found at the closing Charlie Trotter’s. The Curried Zucchini Cream Soup (coconut cream) was astonishing. There were duck rilletes on toast points with quail egg and hollandaise. There are other places with great food now, but fine dining like this I have not seen before. Wow. I cannot wait until they open.
Here is the link to their website.
I agree! I am used to them either being fluff or being a good substitute for hockey pucks and those were just like the gluten ones!
I was at Nourished too and was also gaga for the Senza food. I’m going to have to think of reasons to go to Chicago to eat there. LOVED the English Muffins–gluten-free and perfect texture, flavor, and nutritional “feel.”
