Giribaldi's Italian Eatery Returns to Arlington Heights

Image
Cool mural at Giribaldi's new location at 1960 N. Arlington Heights Rd. Arlington Heights has a Giribaldi's again -- now located at the southwest corner of Arlington Heights Road and Rand Road. Michael Bagan opened the new restaurant close to the original Arlington Heights location, which was at Town & Country Mall (now Town & Country Shopping Center). Most recently the Arlington Heights Garibaldi’s was located on Golf Road, just east of Arlington Heights Road. The Golf Road restaurant had to close because of non-payment of sales taxes. Michael Bagan came in as a new investor, who was not responsible for the tax liability.

Fox News Chicago Finds Some Gluten-Free Experts with Some Helpful and Healthy Recipes

Celebrities Try Gluten-Free Diets - Will It Work For You?: MyFoxCHICAGO.com Celebrities Try Gluten-Free Diets - Will It Work For You?: MyFoxCHICAGO.com FOX Chicago News featured Gluten-Free diets that are apparently being tried by celebrities such as Victoria Beckham, Zooey Deschanel, Lady Gaga and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Chicago Bulls player Kyle Korver told Men's Health Magazine a gluten-free diet has boosted his performance, and made him healthier. Elisabeth Hasselbeck actually is required to eat a gluten-free diet because she suffers from celiac disease, often celiac sprue), which is an autoimmune disorder of the small intestine that occurs in genetically predisposed people of all ages from middle infancy onward. Celiac disease is associated with anemia, and malabsorption of vitamins and minerals. Even people without celiac disease can experience allergic-like reactions from gluten, such as bloating, abdominal discomfort, pain, or diarrhea; or it may present with a variet
