Glutarded Take-Out

 

Sometimes you just need delivery…

Lately I feel like I have been a slave to my kitchen.  Not that I don’t enjoy cooking and sharing my creations with all of you.  It keeps my culinary skills in check and cuts down on my heating bill since my rocket ship of an oven makes my little apartment feel like Costa Rica. 
So what does a glutard do when he’s tired of cooking gluten free?  Break out your smart phone and call for delivery, baby! The only problem is that your options are limited in the world of take-out.  Well, I am here to help you navigate it in style.


I went on GrubHub, my favorite way to order food without dealing with people, and searched for gluten free to see what came up.  I settled on a place called The Quick Fixx, which is located at 15th and South.  They have a cool gluten free pasta option, in which you select your pasta, sauce, and topping to create your own dish.
*Warning- Do not do this when you are intoxicated.  Ordering with the drunk munchies (or munchies of any kind…) will lead to strange flavor combinations and a hefty bill.  Trust me…*


I chose their gluten free cheese ravioli as my base.  Then came the spicy tomato sauce, smoked bacon, sundried tomatoes, sautéed mushrooms, and gorgonzola cheese.  What the hell was I thinking?  Well, 30 minutes later I was very pleased with my choices.  Pasta smothered in goodness.  The portion size was great and the toppings were plentiful. After all the toppings, delivery fee, and tax I spent about $20 on my little ravioli rendezvous.

I also found in my search that Dominos now has a gluten free 10 inch crust on their menu.  Way to step it up there, Dominos.  I decided to give it a whirl (on a different night than the pasta…I am not that much of a fat kid!) and see what it was like.  Turns out their thin, crispy gluten free crust is much more appealing to me than their regular crusts.  Just be warned, when you order online you will receive this terrifying disclaimer:


Personally, I didn’t have any reaction to the pizza.  As it says, depending on how sensitive you are, you should exercise caution.  Who would of thought ordering pizza would be this dangerous?

What other take-out should I try?

Glutardedly Yours,
