Lunch at Creekside Cellars
A recent day of old-fashioned ice skating on Evergreen Lake was made all the better with lunch at Creekside Cellars Winery & Italian Cafe.
The cozy spot, which sits on the banks of Bear Creek, bustles with both locals and tourists in search of made-on-the-premises wines and a well-rounded menu. Creekside delivers with sips like the easy-to-drink, lightly tannin-ed Cab Franc and a menu of hearty paninis, made-from-scratch soups, and fresh antipasto.
Best bets include the soups du jour---don't miss the roasted red-pepper bisque or, if available, the vegetable medley---and the rosemary chicken panino with fresca mozzarella, grilled chicken, and roma tomatoes on focaccia. (FYI: The sandwiches are easily shared.)
Bonus: Children are well served, too, with whipped-cream-topped hot cocoa and a kids' menu---think grilled turkey and cheese on focaccia with applesauce or fruit on the side.

How did you miss the fabulous Spice Trader's Chocolate and Creekside Cellars wine pairing? Spice Trader's Chocolates are made locally at the Georgetown Valley Candy Company. Making those chocolates would make a great story!
