The Best Three Dollar Chocolate Experience in the WorldBy Madelyn Miller, the Travellady.com
There are many good reasons to go to Utah’s Stein Eriksen Lodge. Most people love skiing, hiking or biking on the mountain trails, enjoying the outdoors and gorgeous vistas, or relaxing in the spa. And, of course, there is the Lodge’s German Chocolate Popsicle. If there is one thing I enjoy as much as chocolate, it is a good bargain. So imagine how thrilled I was to discover a chocolate dessert at the Glitretind, the renowned restaurant at the AAA Five Diamond Lodge, for less than five dollars. Actually, the German Chocolate Popsicle, which consists of German chocolate ice cream dipped in milk chocolate and pecan pieces, is a palate-satisfying pleasure for only three dollars.
Yet if some people would walk a mile for a Camel, I now know I would go even further for a chocolate popsicle. Visitors to the Lodge can also indulge in the Lodge’s fabulous hand-made chocolates. The chocolate genius behind these is Raymond Lammers, executive pastry chef. Lammers works closely with the executive chef to create savory, world-class desserts that compliment the Lodge's menus. These delectable chocolates can be enjoyed at the Lodge or ordered online at http://www.steinlodge.com/dining/chocolate_order_form.php. The chocolates come in a Curry |
