Beano's Cabin - Review - Beaver Creek - Vail - The Infatuation

"In the early 20th-century this place used to be a trapper’s cabin that, yes, belonged to a man named Beano. But nowadays, the meadow where Beano used to sleep and skin wild animals is home to one of the Vail Valley’s most unique fine dining restaurants. During the winter, you can only get here by a snowcat-drawn sleigh that picks you up at the base of the mountain. Inside, the high-ceilinged space is covered in antler chandeliers, there’s always somebody playing acoustic guitar, and the dining room overlooks the alpine meadow. Unsurprisingly, the five-course tasting menu has a ton of excellent local meats like bison tartare, rotisserie game hen, and elk." - Kim Fuller
