“To be honest,” declared the bride on her wedding website, “this area is not known as a major culinary destination.” Ken and I were headed to a friend’s summer wedding in the Grand Teton Mountains, namely Driggs, Idaho.
Just over the Mountain Pass from skiing-favorite Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Driggs has a population of 1362 mostly young, bright, healthy, energetic folks who, as it turns out, actually cook very well and enjoy eating really good food. In fact Driggs proved to be a delightful culinary destination. Though our stay was less than forty-eight hours, we enjoyed some of the best eating of our 10-day road trip.
Dinner the evening we arrived was at Forage a bright contemporary “bistro and lounge” with optional outdoor seating. I had the Roasted Half Hen with dill-lemon butter, ziti pasta, sun-dried tomato, haricot vert and Parmesan melted over sweet onion marmalade. Ken had “The” Noodles with coconut, garlic, ginger, cilantro, peanuts, lime and hoisin beef. Both were quite nice as was the tart lemon layer cake with raspberry filling and butter cream frosting.
