The Smokehouse Barbecue Food Cart & The NOMAD Chefs Food Cart…read more Wilmington, Vermont Around the time that I moved to Vermont , I started hearing about An Incredible Team Of Chefs Called "The Nomad Chefs"Founded By The Great Brandon Ruble. They were Featured Each Week At That Time At The Wilmington Inn For Their "Wicked Wednesday" Events & They Always Got Rave Reviews. Each Week Mr Ruble Would Change Up The Menu With New & Delicious surprises with flavors and tastes from all Around the globe. And each Time I Went, The Food Was perfection. It wasn't long before Brandon Ruble Was The Talk Of The Town and Over the last two years or so, he went on to purchase a food truck for "Nomad Chefs" & Everybody Loves It. And Not long ago, I heard he had a brand new Food Truck & Started A Whole New Brand Called "The Smokehouse". They are currently at the River Valley Market & I'd been dying to go but kept missing it for one reason or the other, but last week I got there at just the right time. I even Got A Chance To Meet Brandon Ruble himself & He Was Just As Sweet As He Is Talented. It's easy to see how hard he works & How Well. A true master at what he does. A seasoned professional. Dan Took my order and he was awesome. Funny, sweet & Very Accommodating. His sweet tea was out of this world & Some of the best I've ever had. I Ordered the Brisket with Sides Of Coleslaw, Baked Beans & Homemade Cornbread. I Was Hesitant to order the brisket as my recent experiences doing so at other establishments didn't turn out so well. It takes a special touch to get brisket just right and not over or under cooked. Usually people miss the mark one way or the other. But The minute I opened my to-go box, I knew this wouldn't be the same. You could literally see how juicy it was & The meat was so tender it was almost falling apart In Your Mouth. To say that it was perfection would be an understatement. And the Flavor? Sooooo delectable. Rich & Full Bodied. Just perfect. Holy smokes was that delicious ( No Pun Intended). This was hands down The best brisket I've Ever had in all my life and I'm no spring chicken. Theres such a huge difference in the taste when its made by someone who is a true artist. Someone who puts thought, and time into all of the dishes that he adds to his menu. Someone like Brandon Ruble. I would highly recommend this food cart 100%. It Is Without A Doubt, The Best & Most Delicious Meal You'll Find & even The Fairest Price. Not Only Will You Love It, You Will Leave Full And Happy & You'll want to come back & So will your whole family. As You Eat Or Wait For Your To-Go Order, You'll Smell The Two Extra Large Smokers Going The Whole Time. The menu has something For Everyone, including Chicken Wings, Burgers, Fries & Even Hush Puppies. The main attraction though is the smoked platter. You choose your meat , IE Brisket, Pork Etc & pick two side dishes. No matter what you pick it'll be delicious. You will be very happy. I guarantee it. I went back a few days later with a friend of mine who's usually the hardest critic and doesn't like to to try new things. He sticks with the places he knows and goes there habitually. But even he went crazy over "The Smokehouse". His quote exactly was "This Is Better Than Any Place In Town". And THAT is the hugest statement of all in a place like vermont where there's delicious food everywhere. I highly recommend "The Smokehouse" Food Cart, In Addition to The "Nomad Chef's" Food Cart & Or Anything Else Brandon Ruble Puts his hands on. This man is absolutely gifted. The meal that I Had At "The Smokehouse" is only one of the many incredible creations that we've all come to know & expect from Mr Ruble When He Puts His name on Something. As far as I can see, there's nothing this man can't do. 5 stars

All of our entrees were also huge portions and delicious. I would say the only complaint was the burger lacked basic seasonings a little salt and fixed no problem.

We stopped in during their opening month to see if it lived up to the hype, and it's safe to say this is exactly what the valley needed. The Atmosphere The first thing you notice is the arcade. It's a total game-changer if you have kids (or if you're just a competitive adult). It keeps the vibe lively without feeling like a chaotic playground, and it's a great way to kill time while waiting for a table or hanging out after a day on the slopes. The Food We sampled a bit of everything, and for a brand-new kitchen, they are already hitting their stride: The Wings: These were the standout. Crispy skin, juicy interior, and the sauces actually have some personality. Definitely get an order for the table. Roasted Chicken: This is the ultimate comfort dish. It was perfectly seasoned and felt like a high-end home-cooked meal. If you want something hearty but not "pub heavy," this is the move. Tenderloin Sandwich: Wow. The steak was incredibly tender (as promised) and served on a fresh roll that didn't fall apart. It's a massive step up from your standard steak sandwich.

I loved all these answers! The back room is where the dining room is has a fireplace and is super rustic haven. Just an amazing impromptu lunch experience! My only complaint was the Thai chicken soup, yuck lol. It was really just warm mush. But other than that I am marking this place on my map of favorite places ever!

While staying at the Nutmeg Inn, we decided to peek at the Fireside's menu on our last night. A…read moredelightful selection of tapas at reasonable prices in front of a roaring fire was impossible to resist. Our innkeeper Shelly was charming and gave us the run down on all our menu questions. We started with a lovely bottle of Italian wine that Shelly offered. Our dining experience then proceeded to the bread and dukka, which was a sourdough served with a dipping oil as well as dukka seasoning - a delightful taste combination. Next up was an artisanal cheese board -- with two types of crackers, three local cheeses, pear and apple slices, candied walnuts and the pièce de resistance-- an amazing truffle honey to top it all off with. The story could have ended here and I would been been completely satisfied with our dining exploration, but we were only halfway through. Next up were two tapas dishes served simultaneously, a lemon infused steak, with horseradish sauce (Shelly says they have a secret technique for preparing their steak) and also a fennel au gratin dish. Both were excellent flavor combinations but I have to give the edge to the lemon-infused steak, with the horseradish being the perfect saucy compliment. Before going on to dessert, we decided to try one more tapas dish - the chickpeas with andouille sausage and spinach. This combination was served in a bowl, almost like a soup. The sausage bits gave it just enough spice to keep it as interesting as all the dishes that came before it. In fact, I don't know that chickpeas have ever been this exciting, and I'm a big fan of the Garbonzo. I should also mention that the ambiance at Fireside is wonderful and cozy. A low wood beamed ceiling is complimented by unique artwork and a tasteful and low-level music selection. Be sure to ask Shelly why the Kate artwork is especially significant to her. Lastly for dessert, I chose the Dutch Baby Pancake. Served in a tiny but sizzling skillet with a cherry topping and a scoop of ice cream, no further words are necessary beyond the ingredients. Just be sure to have a glass of water handy because the pancake itself is extremely hot at first. Prior to Fireside, Shelly ran a restaurant in London for six years. Her experience shines through in the amazingly simple, yet awesomely elegant and novel food combinations. If you are looking for quiet, cozy, romantic dining in the Manchester VT area, Fireside is the hidden gem of delight, waiting for you to discover it! When we came on a Saturday night, we nearly had the place to ourselves. But I have a feeling that when word gets out, Fireside will be packed every night that they are open.

If you told me I'd find some of the best seafood of my life in landlocked Southern Vermont, I…read moreprobably wouldn't have believed you--but Anchor Seafood House & Grille is the real deal. This place has been a Wilmington staple since 1997, and you can tell they've spent the last nearly 30 years perfecting the craft. The atmosphere is incredible. While the original 1850s building was lost to a fire in 2010, the current space is a beautiful, faithful replica that feels historic and cozy. It's the perfect spot for a post-ski dinner or a summer night out. Here's the breakdown of what you need to order: The Chowder: This is proper New England clam chowder. It's thick, rich, and loaded with clams--not just a bowl of potatoes and heavy cream. It's the ultimate comfort food. Steamers: You have to start with the steamers. They are clean, sweet, and served the traditional way with a side of broth and drawn butter. It's a messy, delicious classic that they do perfectly here. Whole Belly Clams: These are the gold standard. They're lightly breaded, perfectly fried, and have that sweet, briny pop you usually only find at a roadside shack on the Maine coast. If you're a fan of "the bellies," don't skip these. The Lobster: I went for the steamed lobster, and it was impeccable. Succulent chunks of fresh meat and just the right amount of butter. It tasted like it was caught that morning. It's rare to find a spot that balances a "fancy night out" feel with such unpretentious, high-quality food. Whether you're a local or just passing through for the foliage, make sure you stop here.

It was off-season in the area so many places haven't been busy. Luckily they asked if we were okay with the bar. Most definitely okay with the bar! We actually got pretty good attention when sitting at the bar. I ordered the Broiled Seafood Sampler because I like seafood and anytime I can get a variety in a dish, I'll go for that. The sampler consisted of haddock, salmon, scallops, and shrimp. The dish contained plenty of the fish and only two pieces each of the scallops and shrimp. The dish was not what I was expecting because of the crumb topping and creamy sauce. It was fine. We definitely got a good portion and the linguine with garlic and oil was fantastic! It was definitely garlicky, just the way I like it.

The only thing keeping Cuzzins from a five star rating in my book is the somewhat limited space. Located in the Mt. Snow main base lodge (or for you ski bums, skier's right as you're zipping down "Canyon"), Cuzzin's has plenty of tables and a nice back bar with bay windows facing towards the mountain. As other reviewers note, however, this place does get packed as the ski day winds down, and with only one entrance where they're checking IDs, we noticed a line starting to form around 4:30pm. Overall, though, it's worth waiting a few minutes to get in here and wind down with your fellow skiers and boarders. Cuzzins has a really nice lived in feel to it that doesn't give off any sense that you're in an "official mountain ski lodge." If you're not in favor of a packed out standing room-only scene, head upstairs to the nearby Station Tap Room for a more relaxing vibe.
