Getting gluten free food in Israel

Our friend Danny the Digger, an Israeli archeologist and tour guide, has put together this list of gluten free food and restaurants for travelling celiacs. That's some digging Danny! As always with these lists, proprietors change over time so it's usually a good idea to phone or email to check before rocking up. And of course, remember to take your Hebrew gluten free restaurant card.

If you do visit Israel, it would be great if you could send me a report to add to our Celiac Travel stories section. This part of the site is immensely helpful for travelling celiacs, and if we work together we should be able to make the world a safer place for celiacs all over.

I hope that this celiac travel story has helped you. You can help other celiacs travel more safely by telling me about getting gluten free food in your area - remember where you live is a destination too! Send me a report and I'll let thousands of celiacs know.
