During this time some things may be reshuffled and also some other things may be missing temporarily, like comments. We’re working to restore everything and will post more information when it’s done.

Today’s deal was a half-off coupon for Powell’s Books. Find the new service, here: Google Offers

There is a new blog on gluten-free travel which has some articles on Portland, here: Gluten Free Will Travel

A new blog on gluten-free beers and where they can be found, nationwide. They have a list for Portland.

Next resource is also not gluten-free, but is Oregon-specific: The Good Stuff NW blog by Kathleen Bauer, which covers foodie news, gardening, local farms, cocktails, and lots of other interesting things in Oregon. The whole left column of their blog is an events calendar, which is worth a visit in itself.

Speaking of events, and continuing with the “not gluten-free specific” topic here, we were contacted about a benefit dinner which is happening in September. They’re looking to get the word out, so tweet and blog post away. Rather severely edited for brevity, here is part of the press release.

We wanted to give a shout and link to Kelly of Stella Blue Photography, who is an amazing dog photographer here in Portland. Check the link to see some of her photos.

We’re going to toot our own horn, for once. Don’t miss our Gluten-Free Restaurant List and also don’t miss our gluten-free bread machine resource page.

Last, I have to apologize for being behind on our email correspondence and blog posting. Life has been very busy recently. Those of you who have sent us restaurants for our restaurant list, we’re working to get you added soon!

We also got a nudge to make our site more mobile-friendly from one of our friends who is also a reader (Hi Heather!) So this weekend I installed a new plug-in which seems to be doing a good job of making Gluten Free Portland run mobile. Let us know if you have any comments!

I’m also going to take a moment to apologize for the lack of restaurant reviews lately. Due to various factors, we haven’t been able to get to any restaurants in a while. Luckily, this is a temporary situation and I’ve got some ideas for new features in the future, so stay tuned.

Those days are over and (as of this posting) there are fifteen pizza places in the Portland Oregon Metro area offering gluten-free pizza. As a result, we have decided to split the pizza places onto their own gluten-free restaurant list.

So the original gluten-free restaurant list is still available above. The new gluten-free pizza restaurant list is available here.

A large number of these places are offering gluten-free pizza on a crust made by Nugrain Foods. We plan to check this out and let you know what we think as soon as we can.
