The Adirondacks and
the Lake Champlain Valley of Upstate New York and Vermont have long been known
for their truly unique and varied cuisine ranging from fresh caught native brook
trout cooked over an open campfire to world class dining at five star resorts.
In the internationally acclaimed Olympic Village of Lake Placid, diners can choose
from over fifty exciting restaurants with menus featuring everything from spicy
Mexican foods to hearty homecooked meals. If romantic candle light dining in a
Great Camp setting appeals to you, the beautiful Saranac Lake region offers an
unparralled experience. Because of the abundant fish and game found throughout
the Upstate New York and Lake Champlain Region visitors have the opportunity to
sample such native culinary delights as smoked venison, roast duck, and fresh
rainbow trout. We invite you to browse our exciting selection of restaurants featured
below. Enjoy your visit and Bon Apetit! 
| Selecting
a Place to Dine Choosing an appropriate dining spot for a given evening would hardly qualify as one of life's major decisions. Like all of life's decisions, however -- whether great or small -- choosing wisely has its rewards... choosing poorly its punishments. Those who approach restaurant dining with a "life's a crapshoot" attitude are living a self-fulfilling prophecy -- in other words, they're likely to "crap out" more often than not. Restaurant dining should be an immensely pleasurable experience. But hoping for the best doesn't make it so -- some careful planning does. A crapshoot life may well be, but that doesn't mean you can't stack the odds heavily in your favor. One suggestion for choosing an eatery comes immediately to mind: Give a friend a call and ask for a recommendation. Word of mouth is all well and good... provided, of course, that the mouth in question happens to be trustworthy. Since asking for a personal recommendation is somewhat akin to playing Russian roulette with your innards, I would offer the following rule of thumb: No matter how reliable you consider the person making the recommendation, no matter how closely you feel his/her tastes coincide with your own, when sailing off into uncharted culinary waters, it pays to do your own reconnaissance. If possible, make it a point to stop by the establishment in question for a cocktail after work, or at least for a brief look-see. Strike up a conversation with the bartender. Peruse the menu, the wine list... and don't forget to take a gander in the restroom before departing. You'd be surprised what a sharp pair of eyes and ears and an acute sense of smell can tell you about a restaurant -- even before settling in at table. Perhaps a great many people consider it a waste of time and effort to pay a visit to a restaurant beforehand. Obviously it is not always possible or necessary to spy out the land in advance. On the other hand, if you are planning a uniquely romantic and/or outlandishly expensive evening, doing so is most certainly a sine qua non. No matter how glowing the recommendation, there is no substitute for seeing a place in the flesh. Even if the establishment passes muster, you may still deem it unsuitable for the particular occasion you have in mind. Better
to spend a little time and effort at the outset than to make a reservation sight
unseen and arrive at the appointed hour expecting fish... only to find fowl. |
