One Stop Beer Shop Event (Greenpoint)

One Stop Beer Shop in Greenpoint goes out of its way to make GF folks feel at home, with GF beers, ciders, and eats. In fact, they contacted me about hosting the Brooklyn Gluten-Free Meetup for a gluten-free event back in November. The first event went so well, we're doing it again. Join us on Wednesday March 5th for burgers and beers! Details are over at the Meetup.

Please note: One Stop Beer Shop does not have a 100% gluten-free kitchen. Please see the Meetup event page for more info.

One Stop Beer Shop is located at 134 Kingsland Ave., Brooklyn NY 11222.

Blog (and This Blogger's) Background

I was always an avid home cook and restaurant-goer. From my teens on, my idea of "going out" generally involved some form of social eating. I grew up with a huge extended family that regularly dined together and I was in the kitchen helping my grandmother from an early age.

I often joke that I come from deli royalty, as my family owned one in Brooklyn for almost 30 years - so there was always a ton of good food around. Seemed only natural when I started working in restaurants in my early teens, though an accident with a dull knife and my left index finger ended my back of the house aspirations along the way. I've had pretty much every front of the house position at all types of venues, including a few years at Moosewood Restaurant. In my mid-20's, I started to work in healthcare, and have always maintained a love of food and eating well. In 2010, I melded my passions for health and food by completing a master's in public health nutrition.

After being diagnosed with celiac and DH back in 2003, I didn't go out to eat for three years! I don't even remember how long it was before I felt competent enough in the kitchen again to be a gf hostest with the mostest. But that was 10 years ago; I've changed along with the gf product/knowledge landscape. Back in NYC after many years in upstate NY, I'm committed to having a social eating life again, dishing up good eats at home and enjoying what gf vittles NYC has to offer. As any gf person can appreciate, this involves a fair amount of research and planning. Seems a shame to keep all that I've learned to myself; hence this blog.
