What We Crave
IT IS EASY TO START A LIST regarding all there is to love about summer, beginning with the hikes up Snow King Mountain and ending with a jump into Jackson Lake — with a lot of deck dining in between. But, really, who doesn’t crave the carefree feeling of the sun on your shoulders and a margarita in your glass?
My favorite version is made by combining 1 cup Casamigos Blanco, 1/2 cup Cointreau and the juice of five fresh limes.
This summer, we are particularly eager for the farmers markets (Saturday mornings on the Town Square and Wednesday afternoons at the Center for the Arts lawn) and filling up with greens from Vertical Harvest the rest of the week. We are big fans of sandwiches in the summer. They are easy to pack. It is hard to pass up a fried chicken version from Bodega or Rations, but a hot sub from New York City Sub Shop is cravable, too. And no one around here ever misses the chance to pick up a sandwich from Creekside. As previously referenced, summer is also prime-time for dining on decks. You can’t beat the view from the rooftop at Dornan’s, and I love to take out-of-town guests to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort’s Piste or to lunch at Palate. The lawn outside Healthy Being is an ideal spot for a salad and sunning. At night, there are so many places to dine alfresco. A few we frequently recommend include Bin22, Glorietta Trattoria and The Kitchen.
