GOOD gluten-free hamburger buns. Any in Hollywood?

I love burgers for the summer; salmon, turkey, veggie, grilled portobello. I eat them mostly with brown rice, on top of kale or wrapped in lettuce. Sometimes you just gotta have a bun. But its gotta be gluten-free and frankly, what is available in stores is really lacking. And I am not going to turn the oven on. Thanks!

    There's a big new gluten-free market on Magnolia Blvd. in Burbank ... probably worth a try:

    Pam MacD’s Gluten Free Market
    3516 Magnolia Boulevard
    Burbank, CA 91505
    (818) 935-5030 / (888) 664-5886

      I was at Sprouts Market in Thousand Oaks today and saw both GF hamburger buns and hot dog buns. - found under "specialty breads". The Culver City Sprouts opened this week. Check it out! They may have an opening discount...

        You can get Ener-G hamburger buns at "Full O' Life" grocery store on Magnolia in Burbank. They are excellent toasted. They have wide selection of gluten free bread and rolls!

          I'll second the vote for The Sensitive Baker in L.A. — their buns are fantastic. Whole Foods also carries their own brand — The Gluten-Free Bakehouse, these are very good as well. Great flavor and texture.

            Thanks all. So far at TJs, Whole Foods no buns. I might try the english muffins that I saw at WF, that seems to be the closest for an occasional bun hankering.

                Thanks I know about them. They are in Culver City, thats why I specifically stated Hollywood - but thanks anyway they are great, but a drive.

                  sorry... i knew you said hollywood, but that's the first place and closest that came to mind.

                  you might try Ener-G brand at Whole Foods, or if you would consider ordering online, try The Grainless Baker http://www.thegrainlessbaker.com

                    Thanks - Ener-G, I've seen a lot of their products, no buns so far. If I do find I'll post and let you know! Thanks!

                      Haven't tried them, but Amazon sells Ener-g hot dog & hamburger buns in bulk. Amazon's gluten-free selection in general is pretty great. Good luck!

                MAYBE at Locali at Franklin and Canyon Dr. Frozen, not fresh if they have them. It's sorta a Veggie mini market deli
