PlumpJack Café
PlumpJack Café Review
The best restaurant at Olympic Valley is also the finest in the entire Tahoe Basin, the epitome of discreet chic and a must-visit for all serious foodies. The menu changes seasonally, but look for roasted quail in an orange sauce, crispy sweetbreads, and butter poached lobster tail. Rather than complicated, heavy sauces, the chef uses simple reductions to complement a dish. The result: clean, dynamic, bright flavors. The wine list is exceptional for its variety and surprisingly low prices. A less expensive but equally adventurous menu, including lunch, is served at the bar.
