Gluten Free? Wheat free? Visiting Chicago?

This is by no means a complete list.
I just haven't gone out as much as I'd like because I spend most of my time working and traveling. But, in the time I've spent in this city - I have met some really kick ass people and eaten some tasty gluten free yummies.

Someone, who is suitably named, but shall remain nameless *wink* sent me a message a few hours ago asking about places to check out in Chicago when she comes into town.
So - here is it - the start of a living list of the Chicagoland GF noteworthy.

My suggested resources for Chicago are as follows:
* Lou Malnati's - My favourite GF Pizza in Chicago, if not the US. NOT for vegetarians or those watching their waistlines. The crust is made of sausage...yeah. Awesome.

* Marcello's & Sons - Another awesome GF pizza spot in Chicago (scroll down to read GF options) >>> https://marcellos-northave.foodtecsolutions.com:9443/

* Bruce Zarlengo is passionate and adorable - as well as a restaurant reviewer for Celiac Sprue Association (CSA). You can get his reviews if you are a member (I think) ...http://csagc.park-ridge.il.us/restaurantlist.html

* I LOVE THIS CHICK! This woman is pure love, my favourite GF/Special Diet resource in all of Chicago. Lisa, of Lisa Cooks Allergen Free, is as beautiful in spirit as she is knowledgeable. She also hosts regular gourmet dinners showcasing restaurants that cater to "us". >>>http://lisacooksallergenfree.com/

* Jen Cafferty, founder of the Gluten Free Expo >>> http://gfreelife.com/

Let me know if there someplace you've found that is also worthy of note. Spread the word!!! It helps EVERYONE!
