Made in Tahoe…not by me...

We are just settling back in from our first newlywed vacation, outside of honeymoon, spent in Lake Tahoe.  There are so many wonderful things about Tahoe and the food was at the top of the list.  Here are a few shots of some of our favorites.  

Plumpjack Cafe at Squaw Valley was a planned lunch stop after our hike that began early in the morning, the first day of our trip.  We were up with the sun, on the mountain before 9 and then finally sitting and dining at this wonderful restaurant.  I enjoyed Jack's Chicken Enchiladas and B, here holding his oh SO TASTY Seared Tuna Club.

After another day of hiking we had planned on a nice dinner out but this greasy spoon that we had passed throughout the week was calling our name.  B made a spontaneous decision and we whipped a "U" and pulled in for what tured out to be my favorite meal at Burger Lounge. 

The above cannot be accurately represented in words but I have officially changed my Best Burger vote to South Lake Tahoe's Burger Lounge.  And all that food was just for us - the Sno-Bro, cup of tomato soup, Pesto Fries and the Hangover - amazing!!  B topped the meal off with a coffee shake…we went back for shakes later in the week.  

Wild Goose was recommended to us by our good friend, Ben.  What a recommendation it was!  We made early reservations the evening before our big, last hike at the end of the week.  The weather was perfect and our table was a wonderfully romantic spot.  Vanilla Bean Creme Brulee was our pick for dessert and left such a sweet taste in our mouth, very representative of the trip, adventures we took, conversations had and time spent together.  Cheers to my love on a great vacation together!!
