Hi all,

I'll be visiting the UK in October, and @MrsA2 and I thought this would be a perfect reason to meet up with fellow forum members!
We'll be going to Keto Bite in Frinton, where everything is keto and gluten free. :joyful: https://www.facebook.com/ketobiteuk

I've been there two years ago, and it's a lovely little place with a very friendly owner who is very passionate about his food. Very interested in my Libre results too, after pizza, a piece of cake, and a beer, all eaten without insulin.
I found it amazing to be eating out and be able to order anything they have without having to think about your diabetes, and I think it would be even more amazing to share the experience with a bunch of people who I've never met, but still talk to on a daily basis.

Anyway, long story short, who wants to join us?
Just reply to this thread if you're in, or if you're a maybe for now so we can make a list and know for how many we need to make a reservation.

The adress is 34 Connaught Avenue CO139PR Frinton-on-Sea.

They don't have a website so I copied a couple of picures from their Facebook page for the ones who don't do Facebook. :hungry:

Oh dear, please add me to the “ wish I could list,” wrong side of the Atlantic for me but I’ll be reading along enviously. Hope all attendees have a wonderful time, what fun.

A full report, pictures and all should be possible!
Too bad you can't come, I'd have loved to meet you.

Diet drinks - the artificial sweeteners taste vile.
Having to forswear foods I have loved all my life.
Trying to find low carb meals when eating out.
Do you have a firm date in mind?
For some reason my dance card is filling up quite rapidly for October.
I am keen to join you if I don't have the date booked.

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.
The definite date is 3 October!
Sorry I can't make it on that day. Used to live in Frinton a long while ago. Would love to go back but too expensive now. Have a super time.

Thought I had seen that, but then couldn't find it.


Do you have a definite time? :)
AAAAAARGH, I got the date wrong, I'm an idiot!

It's sunday 13 October, not 3!

Ummmm....that is a possible dance card clash so I can't firmly commit until I tie another date down.
Mark me as a definitely possibly maybe.

That food looks amazing and low carb to boot. However I don’t think I can cope with a six hour round trip drive just for lunch, a very fine looking lunch at that!
