Everything tastes better at the top of a mountain, and that seems to be true at Schweitzer’s new, as of last winter, Sky House summit lodge that offers skiers and snowboarders a place to take a break from the mountain elements for a bite or drink on the 360-degree-view-rich summit. The Nest bar and restaurant offers small plate options and beverages including local purveyors Evans Brothers Coffee Roasters, Pend d’Oreille Winery, and beer from MickDuff’s Brewing Company. Last season’s menu featured the kinds of cold ski-day comfort foods we were looking for while ducking in from a wet spring day, like exceptionally tasty wings, a steaming noodle bowl, and fish tacos. The menu included a full range of more dynamic, palate-pleasing plates too: sausage sliders, roasted curried cauliflower, raclette potatoes, and more. Schweitzer.com. //
