Mi Cocina, which has a location in our neighborhood at Preston and Forest, has rolled out a complete gluten-free menu after requests from several regular customers.

There are about 17 items to choose from, including queso, tortilla soup, the Rico Salad, fajitas, and brisket tacos to Tilapia Vera Cruz, huevos rancheros, and house-made Mexican flan.

In a trend that several local restaurants are adopting, the menu helps accommodate diners who have a gluten intolerance such as Celiac disease, which affects about 1 out of 133 Americans.
