"Food is our common ground, a universal experience." — James Beard I would give the service a 10-STAR, and the gluten free crepes are a must try...they were soft, delicate texture and flavorful.

The most delicious desserts in the Triangle area. The atmosphere and the service is great too. Halal and gluten free options are plus!

I’ve been a regular at Kababish for years, and just getting around to posting a review. Their food is delicious - fresh and full of flavor… consistently. The staff, many of whom are family, are friendly and attentive. I have celiac, so I cannot eat gluten. They are aware of gluten free needs; most items are naturally gluten-free, and they can easily modify many dishes to accommodate many dietary requirements. This gem tucked in downtown Cary is my favorite in Cary - because of the food and the welcoming atmosphere. It’s my go-to for my birthday, and Mother’s Day as well! My favorite dishes are butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, kabobs, and lahora bhindi (okra). And of course the mango lassi!

I love to go here with friends for coffee and pastry. My favorite is the chocolate walnut cookie. It's a huge amount of walnuts held together with chewy, tasty chocolate cookie. It doesn't matter to me but it is gluten-free. Several of the items change seasonally. I have had excellent mini coffeecakes, scones and muffins in various flavors. Their plain croissants are my favorite in town. I often get a sandwich (usually on a croissant!) or salad to go for later. The quiche flavors change as well. Today was my first quiche from here. Not only was it a huge piece but the eggy part was so fluffy, the crust was flaky and the chunks of ham were a nice size. I'll be getting quiche again!! The only downside is the place is popular so parking and getting a table can be difficult at certain times. They do have outdoor seating so when the weather is good, tables are easier to find.

I’ve heard great reviews about SugarKoi and Asian inspired ice cream shop and my curiosity led me on a road trip to their location today. It’s tucked away in the Big Lots plaza in Cary, NC. Definitely a hidden gem! Such an adorable place with lot’s of yummy flavors to choose from such as Salty Caramel Truffle, Raspberry sorbet, Ube(Sweet purple yam), brown butter bourbon truffle, matcha tea and plenty more to choose from! The gentleman who waited on me and offered me samples was so kind and friendly, great hospitality and service. I had to try the Ube flavor and it was quite good and refreshing. They even had Gluten Free cones! Yum!

Delicious, gluten-free macarons and drinks in Downtown Cary. Mon Macaron is an adorable shop with food, beverages, and gifts. If you haven’t checked them out yet, you should.

This is a wonderful little shop full of amazing sweets and treats! There were so many fantastic looking options that we were a little overwhelmed, but Davina, the woman running the store, offered us full explanations of what every item was and explained what allergens were included in each, which was greatly appreciated as my girlfriend has celiac disease, and thankfully there were an enormous number of gluten free choices. We shared a pair of assorted treats and some great iced coffees, and enjoyed everything she had selected for us. While I don't live in the area, I'd highly recommend anyone who does to stop by and try as many sweets as they can! The service was friendly and beyond courteous and everything tasted great! They're a little hidden in the plaza where they're located, but it's definitely worth seeking out.
