I frequented my favorite pizza places in the Jericho area, on Long Island without a care in the world. My order was always the same, “Two slices please, cut up in small pieces.” Then I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease and this food that I enjoyed so much with my friends on a Saturday or at a birthday party was quickly eliminated from my diet.
It was not until recently that two pizzerias on Long Island, Fanatico and Café Dolce Vita, both added gluten free pizza to their menus. What’s nice about these places is that they are both very casual and are are great to grab a quick slice with your friends/children or sit down for a nice meal. The manager at Café Dolce Vita was a pleasure to deal with. I spoke with him and although they cook the gluten free pizza in an oven used for all pizza, they take the precaution of cooking gluten free in a separate pan to ensure there is no cross contamination.
Again, make sure to always ask questions as you having nothing to lose and everything to gain. Restaurants that have gluten free items on their resume was your feedback and want to make sure that you are enjoying your meal.
