They also have take home freezer packs of fish fillets, prawns, calamari rings, potato cakes and more. Everthing is cooked to order so is really fresh and good quality.

In honour of the unofficial start of summer with this hot weather I’ve started a page dedicated to gluten free fish and chips in Melbourne – check it out here – and please let me know if you have any more to add to this list!

It’s a little cafe on Glenferrie Rd, a few doors down from Cerone’s, that looks like a converted house – nice big dining area at the front, middle has a smaller dining room and at the back there’s a really cute courtyard – perfect for a nice sunny weekend.

You get a really nice comfortable feeling at this place, like you’re hanging out at someone’s house. The waiters are very friendly and very helpful with gluten free requests (you need to ask them what is gluten free).

The menu (presented in really cute frames) is quite small but there’s a few gluten free options, including soup, salads and some breakfast meals. I had the Green Eggs – scrambled eggs with pesto, spinach and cheese, with gluten free toast – which was really really nice and very filling.

I love Japanese food but even if you’re not familiar with most Japanese dishes, Wagamamas has a good selection for both the cautious and the adventurous. A lot of their menu can be made gluten free, you just have to let the waiter know when you order. For a full list of what can be GF go to http://www.wagamama.com.au/food/dietary/wheatgluten

They have 2 locations in Melbourne:
83 Flinders Lane in the city Wagamama Flinders Lane and Chadstone Shopping Centre Wagamama Chadstone
