How are you gluten-free community?? Cooking more than usual? Doing more dishes than normal? Trying to come up with creative ways to use random ingredients in your house? Yep us too! Share your stories, struggles and suggestions! . . We have been staying at home for a few weeks now so we only have the gf selections close to our homes or what we can find online. This has led to a lot of cooking from scratch. . . This bread mix can be found on Japanese Amazon for ￥389 and can make two loaves of bread in a bread machine. It has a decent crust and toasts well compared to others around. If you can't find bread locally, this is a good option! . . Let us know how you're doing and if you have any questions! ❤️ . . #gfguidejapan #glutenfreequarantine #glutenfreejapan #glutenfreebaking #glutenfree #グルテンフリーパン #quarantinecooking #japan

New blog post: part two in our series on snacking in Japan! This one focuses on the most common convenience store chain, 7-11, but most of the snacks mentioned can be found at other big chains too. Now you know what to bring to your cherry blossom 🌸 picnics! You may have noticed that many cherry blossom festivals are being canceled which means food stands probably won’t be open, so definitely bring some munchies. In terms of safety: the government has recommended that people don’t do cherry blossom picnics this year, but we’re pretty sure people will do it anyway. Use your best judgment, read your government’s safety tips, and read publications like @timeouttokyo_ @thejapantimes @jpninfo and @tokyocheapo to learn about cancelations and closings.

Due to the spread of the coronavirus, most tourists sites are closed until mid-March. Some restaurants have also announced their closures, including those that provide gluten-free meals. . . How can you be prepared?? Check the social media of restaurants before visiting to make sure they are open. Also, bring plenty of gluten-free snacks, alcohol gel or wipes and masks from your home country. . . The good news is many places aren't so crowded and the weather is getting warmer. So cherry blossoms, parks, and temples are still free to enjoy!👍 . . Have you been traveling in Japan and have had trouble finding gf food due to the coronavirus? Let us know so we can share the info! . . #japantravel #gfguidejapan #glutenfree #gftravel #japan #tokyo #travelwithkids #グルテンフリー

We had a great lunch at Cafe Perry Berry this weekend! The curry and brulee pancakes were delicious. It was my first time to try souffle pancakes. ❤️ The cafe is located on a charming canal with old buildings and a museum of local history. . . . Shimoda is a popular beach destination famous for its surf spots and the bluest water anywhere near Tokyo. The town center also hosts many buildings and museums dedicated to the arrival of the American Navy in the 1850s. . . #gfguidejapan #glutenfree #glutenfreepancakes #soufflepancake #glutenfreetravel #shimoda #beach #グルテンフリー #下田 #glutenfreejapan

Just cruised through Shibuya Scramble Square and Hikarie with munchies on my mind. The shops change frequently, so it can be tricky to stay on top of what’s there. There are a couple GF or GF-friendly take out and snacking options: In Shibuya Scramble... Peace cafe @peacecafehawaii_jp has GF granola and vegan GF bentos/deli items and sushi! Kinokuniya Gourmand Market upstairs is a big grocery with some GF items like energy bars and snacks. In Hikarie... There’s a rice ball shop called Iroha with allergens labeled but obviously not certified GF so be cautious. Upstairs, American Pharmacy @american_pharmacy_official has a pretty decent lineup of some GF munchies labeled clearly in English. Also they have a great selection of vitamins and supplements, not to mention American cosmetics if you’re looking. If you need more snacking info please check our blog as we’re working on a several-part series with snacking and convenience store tips! Questions?
