We hosted our first gluten free tasting event on the 17th of November, presenting our new gluten free menu to some of our favourite gluten free bloggers and customers. Although a cold and rainy day, it made for a lovely evening spending time in good company, sampling some of the gluten free delights and discussing the menu. It proved to be a helpful way of getting valuable feedback about things that could be improved upon and was also comforting to know that our services were much appreciated.
I am not Coeliac so I couldn’t imagine what it must be like to have gluten allergies, but getting together on this evening was a kind of first hand education. What struck me most from our conversation was when I learnt that anybody could be diagnosed with Coeliac at any point in their lives. This would then open up a whole new dimension to food and cooking, one that doesn’t have to be bland or boring, but on the contrary, quite innovative and inviting. I have noticed a trend in gluten free diets becoming popular in general. Whether it may be a fad or not, it arose from an important need, and with the help of our chefs, we at Naturally Chinese have made it a priority to serve that need with our separate gluten free menu continually working to keep it fresh and delicious.
I’ve had some wonderful write ups about the food that I wanted to share. Please take a look when you have a moment.
