Allergy Friendly
Bronwyn Lipka
As a foodie, I love all different kinds of cultural foods. Surprisingly enough, American food is the least allergy friendly of them all. So I’ve made my way into many restaurants all around Michigan, searching for the yummiest, and most allergy friendly food out there.
Of course everyone loves food. Eating is fun and it brings people together.

Kwong Tung Chop Suey
Kwong Tung Chop Suey - 23 Mile Road, Shelby Charter Township MI
Most of the employees I have spoken too are very familiar with allergies because the owners daughter has many. They keep everything separate so customizing dishes is easier.

Anyone else with a gluten allergy knows Italian restaurants are the most difficult. Here the owners wife is GF so EVERY SINGLE DISH can be made GF! They even have gluten free bread!

Has the most gluten free options I've ever seen in a Chinese restaurant, they even label which dishes are GF or Vegan and which ones can be customized!

The only hibachi place that doesn't leave my stomach feeling uneasy. They use GF soysauce! Hibachi food is also very customizable for eating preferences.

Flint Crepe Company
Flint Crepe Company - Saginaw Street, Flint MI
Their menu is catered to people with allergies, rather than to people without. Everything is catered to people with eating preferences. They even have a special GF batter!

Thai Nation Bistro
Thai Nation Bistro - Saginaw Road, Flint MI
Best thai food in the area. Perfect for GF people. But because it is the only thai place in the area, it is always busy so make sure to call 1 hour ahead.
