Eating gluten-free in the Dominican Republic

So here's an idea, how about spending two weeks traversing a country whose primary language is Spanish.

No worries, I've spent time in Spain and took a couple trips to Mexico, I've totally got the necessities covered - beer, bathroom, and mumbling perfunctory greetings.

Gluten-free gems in Victoria B.C.'s funky neighborhoods

The sky is blue and the sun is shining - it's a beautiful day in Victoria and it's FINALLY CONCERT NIGHT! When Shawn and I travel our meal schedule gets all mixed up. We usually end up eating a late breakfast/early lunch then start foraging for food  again around 3ish. This day was no different. We started the day at West Coast Waffles, did some sightseeing, rested up a bit then headed to Canada's oldest Chinatown which happened to be just a couple blocks away.
