*One of the best dining experiences yet was my last night in Whitefish. We went to an old historic lodge filled with taxidermy bears, elk and mountain goats (Love). Ladies and Gentleman, let me tell you about The Grouse Mountain Lodge. We made reservations late in the evening and had the back patio to ourselves that overlooked the Whitefish lake golf course. We dined on Rare Prime Rib with Grilled Asparagus and Potatoes, Elk Carpaccio, Homemade Soup, Crab Cakes and Spice Rubbed Sake Tuna with Jicama Slaw as we sipped on Nobilo Savingnon Blanc from Marlborough, New Zealand.
*BLT's and Hard Swamp Water for lunch at The Red Caboose Diner.
*We cooked a Hutterite chicken! The freshest most delicious chicken I have ever tasted. Love these people even though I never got to see one in the flesh. They just walked into the local bar with chickens and peas (kind of like our tamale people). Brilliant. Loved this home cooked meal, shared with friends and included all the usual fixings: Biscuits with Gravy, Mashed Potatoes and Salad.
*Sunday leisure for a few hours at The Boat Club at The Lodge with the local paper and Mediterranean Flatbread, Clam Strips and a Cheese Burger with Huckleberry Cocktails.
*Katie's pasta bake. Will get the recipe and stop trying to do it myself.
Check out the new August-September issue of Zocalo. I have a recipe in there called Summer in Recession Rolls. These are all I have been eating this summer. Actually, I am eating some right now... love taking them to work to munch on. They are light, healthy, and easy. Whipped these guys (all 4 of them) out this morning and it took no longer than 15 minutes.
