Review Visit: July 14th, 2015…read more Yes, it's called a Drive Inn. No, you can't park your car inside nor rent a room for the evening. Nakusp, BC. Our target destination after what seemed like endless hours of driving. Rolling up at 2am, we quickly headed inside and crashed hard. As soon as we were all awake, we needed some food to help refuel after that wild drive. Doing what I do best, I convinced everyone to head in to town to see what it offered. We hopped back in to the van and hit the town. Seeing as my cousin's wife was from here, she suggested a few places. The Hut was the one that sounded promising to all of us. The van was ushered in to a parking spot and we piled out with our empty bellies. Pouring over the menu, all of our mouths watered at the tasty-sounding goodies offered. I was heavily in to chicken sandwiches around this time so that is what I grabbed. I'm not sure what everyone else ordered but I do know the price was pretty consistent with other places like this. Since it was 5 people ordering food, plus the other customers there, the wait was a bit longer than I expected, but these places tend to make their food whenever it's ordered, so that's not always a bad thing. Once the food came out, we quickly headed to a table with an umbrella as we were roasting in the summer sun. Everyone immediately dived in to their food without hesitation. I had slight trepidation as I was in unfamiliar territory with different cultural viewpoints in how to make food and what toppings to put on it. As I sunk my teeth into that first bite, I knew there was nothing else to worry about. That chicken sandwich was full of big flavor. It may look unassuming in the photo below but I loved that thing and wanted another after finishing it. The menu for The Hut was rather large for the size of the town. The food options were a combination of what you can get at an Ice Cream Shack and a place like diner. Burgers, fish and chips, wraps, ice cream, shakes, breakfast, poutine, etc. There is surely something here that would interest most people. As for the building itself, it is in the shape of a triangle and looks to be a house as well? Or maybe previously a house? The peculiar design definitely catches your eye while driving down the road. Luckily after visiting it this one time, we hit up the Hut a few more times for food during our stay in Nakusp. While we did try other places, as you will see in coming blogs posts, none compared to my instant love for the chicken sandwich at The Hut. Years later, I still want another one.

What a great little place to stop by and have some great food!…read more This is a family run drive in that serves all the basic goodies, Hot Dogs, Burgers, Milkshakes, Fish & Chips and Fried Chicken!! Oh let me tell you about their Fried Chicken!! They are the honest home style fried chicken that is void of any gimmick or extra flavourings you would put on. The chicken are large pieces, I am sure they use local farm raised chicken as the meat has a firm texture and is very flavourful, I do not detect a lot of spices being used but they do have some in the batter ( by the way the batter is almost non-existent ) as the crust is very light and not overbearing. Anyways, this is one of the best Fried Chicken I had in a long time, and I had to find it here in Nakusp, BC!!

The food was nice. It tasted fresh and homemade. I had a cup of the borsht and it was delicious,…read morenot the typical borscht of beets, but a veggie mix. The restaurant was clean and fairly quiet even though all the tables were full. The only reason i didn't give it 5 stars was the 2 waitresses were not friendly at all - I didn't feel very welcome.

It's a hippie vibe and everything is made healthy and un sweetened.., We ate outside which was beautiful. I had the cheeseburger which was dry and the bun was falling apart. The matcha tea was unsweetened and it tasted like eating straight matcha powder ,I guess if you're a vegan it's the place for you .

Nice spot for dinner in revelstoke! Charming restaurant with attentive service. We started with the…read morepolenta fries and loved this appetizer! The kimchi ketchup was very unique and it was very flavorful and came out nice and hot. For the entrees, we got the chicken parmigiana and lamb chops. The chicken was on a bed of linguini and it was quite filling. The lamb chops were nice and came with roasted potatoes and salad.

But luckily, we happened upon Mountain King, which was open and delicious. I had the Hanglider which was two crispy tofu patties on a wagel (a sourdough bun) with BBQ sauce and toppings. It was really good. We also got curly fries which were perfect. The menu was huge and had lots of options for meat-eaters and vegetarians alike. I'd highly recommend it on your next visit there.

A Delicious Surprise in Revelstoke!…read more What a pleasant surprise to chance across this little gem while charging our Tesla! Terravita Kitchen is conveniently located right across the street from the Tesla Supercharger in Revelstoke, so we decided to stop in for lunch while the car was charging. I ordered the Grazing Bowl, and it was absolutely delicious! It was packed with quinoa, chickpeas, fresh vegetables, red lentil hummus, egg, feta, seeds, and so many different flavors and textures. It was fresh, colorful, satisfying, and definitely not your typical road-trip lunch. The menu had lots of appealing choices, including several vegetarian and vegan options, and everything looked fresh and thoughtfully prepared. We honestly couldn't have planned a better charging stop! Great food, convenient location, and a beautiful mountain setting. If you're passing through Revelstoke -- especially if you're stopping to charge your EV -- put Terravita Kitchen on your list! A very happy road-trip discovery!

Terravita Kitchen is a must-visit if you're in Revelstoke! Loved the cozy, local feel. It's not a…read morebig restaurant but a nice decent place to sit indoors or outdoor on the street patio. We tried the coffee and carrot cake (so moist and delicious), the soup and sandwich lunch combo was perfect, and the veggie burger was one of the best we've had - fresh and full of flavour. It was super healthy due to loads of veggies in it. I really liked the water bottles on the table as they served duel purpose of being water bottles and marketing for their parent company Dutchman dairy. You can tell they use quality local ingredients. Great service too. Will be back!

Pretty decent food at a ski resort. They have daily pasta and seafood specials, and a menu with…read morelots of variety. They had a Laksa which I tried. It's definitely not traditional Malaysian Laksa, but the sauce was pretty rich and I'm fine with the interpretation. The daily pasta special was a carbonara with crispy pancetta. Done pretty well. The pancetta was on point, slightly salty but still crispy and great texture. The sauce was nice, not too rich. I know my wife raved about the daily salmon special. Excellent potatoes - crispy on outside but creamy and soft on the inside. Great place to come to for some fine dining while skiing here. Beware it's pricey though.

This was by far our favorite place to eat in silver Star Mountain village: Sort of a cross between…read morea pub and a bistro, with lots of comfort food and appetizers as well as high-end pub food, typically with organic ingredients. At night, they moved it up one notch to even nicer fare. Atmosphere was dark and cozy, with a roaring fire and couch at one end. Generous booths lined the outside walls. A small stage was setup for live music. A perfect spot for tired skiers to strip off their outer layers and stay awhile -whether it be lunch or an après ski snack and cocktail. For us, it didn't hurt that it was only a few steps away from the ski school pickup area. And they had a kid's menu. No menu on the table here; It was written on a giant chalkboard surrounding the door and was ever-changing, apart from a few mainstays. Burgers, wraps and sandwiches were excellent and the soup was phenomenal. On my first lunch visit I had a glorious seafood chowder (with big chunks of local salmon) and a few days later a delicious potato-leek soup, one of the best I've ever had. Beers on tap were limited to just four from a local brewery, Okanagan Springs. I tried both the pale ale and black lager - both very good. Beyond that there was a decent bottled beer and wine list. I didn't get a chance to try any well drinks. With a free pass on Valentine's evening, my wife and I snuck in for dinner here, reservations made, but not really needed. My steak was good, though on the tough side. My wife's squash risotto was perfect and very satisfying. Wyndham Estates Winery was there handing out generous tasting samples for everyone. The only disappointing moment was at dessert time - no chocolate! Being Valentine's day, with nice Shiraz flowing freely, a complete lack of chocolate on the menu constituted a major fail in my book. Though considering they are still basically a pub at heart, I don't feel justified reducing their rating based on this one issue. The Den was an especially fun place with the Winter Olympics going in nearby Vancouver, with 3 widescreen TVs showing the coverage. Canadian flags were hung everywhere, and the staff were all sporting "Go-Canada-Go" t-shirts. At one point, when Canada won a gold medal, the staff announced everyone would get a free round. We gladly participated.
