Dining. . .
The dining room has a capacity of up to 30 guests, but with the lodge restricting our occupancy to a maximum of only 18 guests per trip the dining room is never overcrowded. Although there is always friendly banter between tables the good separation between tables also allows groups to enjoy private conversations amongst themselves.
Guests are served breakfast and dinner at the lodge in the guest dining room while the mid-day meal is normally a shore lunch of fresh-caught fish expertly prepared by your guide out on the lake.
Meal selections are varied each day so our guests will enjoy a variety of meals during their stay with us at Minor Bay Lodge.
Each morning our guests are offered a hearty, hot breakfast with plenty of fresh brewed coffee (or tea). A fresh fruit platter, fruit juices, a selection of cold cereals – and, of course, the staple of the north – Red River cereal is always available on our self-serve buffet table.
The evening meal normally starts in the guest lounge where each evening our Red Seal chef offers guests a different selection of tasty, innovative hors d’oeuvres to enjoy with a pre-dinner cocktail, aperitif or glass of wine.
Dinner is always a lively time at the lodge as guests carry-on the camaraderie from the lounge into the dining room. The evening meal always starts with either a home-made soup or salad, moves on to the main course such as fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs or slow-cooked prime rib roast, followed by a “to-die-for” dessert made from scratch by our assistant chef. There are always plenty of fresh-baked breads or rolls accompanying dinner.
Our chef and his assistant use only top-quality fresh products in preparing the soups, salads, main courses and desserts served to our guests. All our meals are “made from scratch”. You won’t find any packaged cake mixes or canned gravy in the kitchen at Minor Bay.
With our small guest capacity there is no problem accommodating any special dietary requirements a guest may have.
Food is an essential ingredient in your fishing adventure at Minor Bay Lodge and our chef, with his preparation of culinary delights; and staff who provide friendly, efficient service, do their utmost to ensure that our guests’ dining experience at Minor Bay Lodge enhances their fishing vacation.
