The Search for the Most Celiac-Friendly Destination...Submit your Reviews of Your Favorite Gluten-Free Restaurants and Grocery Stores Now!

Have you ever wondered what areas of the world are the most Celiac-Friendly? Do you think your particular state, province, or country deserves the honor? 

Now you can share your thoughts with our sister site, GlutenFreeTravelSite.com, where we are having our first annual contest to select The World's Most Celiac-Friendly Destination. Please submit reviews from some of your favorite places. Simply go to GlutenFreeTravelSite.com to Submit a Review of some of your favorite restaurants, grocery stores -- even hotels, resorts or cruise lines. The geographic location with the most submissions by December 31, 2008 will be awarded the official title of World's Most Celiac-Friendly Destination and get special coverage on the website. Help show appreciation for all the places you've dined on great gluten-free food -- whether it's in your hometown or someplace you've traveled. You'll be helping other Celiacs learn about them, too. 

Right now, as many might suspect, New York is in the lead, with plenty of restaurants, especially in New York City, gladly accommodating the growing group of gluten-free diners (read New York reviews). But other places around the world -- including some you might be surprised about -- are also meccas of wonderful gluten-free dining. Take Italy, for instance...although it might be one of the places you think would best be avoided, due to the prevalence of pasta, especially in the southern regions, you'd be wrong. Italy has one of the highest rates of Celiac Disease in the world -- and restaurant owners and chefs are therefore very in tune with gluten-free cooking. Smart Celiacs have discovered this can actually be one of the most enjoyable places to travel if you're following a gluten-free diet. But you be the judge...Submit Your Reviews today. As an added bonus, all review submissions are always entered into a monthly contest to find a particularly useful review to showcase the next month on our Featured Review  page. The winner receives a free copy of Triumph Dining's Essential Gluten-Free Restaurant Guide, a $23.95 value, and gets their review prominently showcased on GlutenFreeTravelSite.com!
