Foodie road trip: Deer Valley Ski Resort offers a culinary 'lift'
"The seafood tower was something else: the base held sweet and briny king crab legs. Next level up: massive shrimp and a cooked and cracked-for-us lobster - the kind we are accustomed to as residents of the northeast. On top was a perfect caviar service. We clinked our glasses of champagne and dug in. Such a seafood feast implies a meal with an ocean view. However, this was our slopeside ski day lunch in a trailside yurt."
"Fireside: Back in 2001, Deer Valley's food and beverage team had a brilliant idea: Transform the resort's Empire Canyon Lodge into a European flare dinner spot and use the many huge fireplaces to prepare each course. It worked. To this day, Fireside is offered Wednesday through Sunday nights each week and is hugely popular; enough that you'll want to reserve way in advance."
A decadent seafood tower — king crab, massive shrimp, a cracked lobster and caviar — was served slopeside in a trailside yurt with champagne. Deer Valley Ski Resort pairs top-tier lifts, grooming, lessons and newly expanded terrain with an expanding array of on-mountain dining options. Fireside at Empire Canyon Lodge offers a European-style four-course fireplace dinner featuring raclette, meats roasted over open fire, desserts, cocktails and an extensive wine list, with sleigh or shuttle access and advance reservations recommended. Chute 11 provides a lively yurt atmosphere with a DJ and surprising, elevated ski-day dishes.
