The Sansglu take
The place
Brazilian comfort food spot built around a dedicated gluten-free kitchen. The whole operation runs separate from any gluten, with staff trained on celiac protocols from the ground up.
The gluten-free setup
Dedicated gluten-free kitchen with separate prep and storage. Dedicated fryer for GF items. Staff trained on celiac protocols. Gluten-free and gluten-containing ingredients kept fully apart.
What to order
Pão de queijo is the whole point: warm cheese bread made with mozzarella, Swiss, and parmesan, naturally grain-free and made in the same gluten-free kitchen. Chase it with a tapioca sandwich or the Monster açaí bowl if you're hungry.
The move
Tapioca, açaí, and pão de queijo are all naturally gluten-free, so Tap built an entire Brazilian café around them instead of adapting an existing one. They won't even let you bring outside gluten food into the shop, which tells you how seriously they take cross-contamination.
