Le adventure dinner kuyinto Colorado
Vula, njengoba ugoqa ngaphansi kwezingubo zokulala e-red sleigh, ekhishwa ngamahhashi amakhulu amasha.
Leli hambo elihamba ngezinyawo alisho "ngokushayela phansi iqhwa." Kuyinto yokuzilibazisa, ehamba phambili ehamba ngezintaba zaseColorado, endleleni eya ekamelweni elidala lezinkuni, lapho kudla khona isidlo sakusihlwa kuJohnyny Cash.
Siyakwamukela kwi-BearCat Stables, enye yamagugu amahle kakhulu e-Colorado ahamba phambili eVail Valley.
I-BearCat kufanele uyenze noma yiluphi uhla lwamabhakede wokuhamba nge-Colorado, noma ngabe uhamba nje, uhlala (futhi uphuphuke) e-Beaver Creek eseduze (imizuzu engama-15 nje) noma uhlezi endaweni yokunethezeka ye-Lodge ne-Spa e-Cordillera, gated umphakathi igalofu.
Isakhiwo se-BearCat sinomlando oqinile futhi kubhekwa njengenye yezinsika eziphezulu esifundeni. Umnikazi wokugcina, u-Ellis "Bearcat" u-Bearden (ngakho igama), wathengisa leli ranch kuya eCordillera kule '90s. Namuhla, iye yalungiswa ngomsebenzi, kodwa igcina ithani le-charm ye-quirky. Izivakashi zingavakasha futhi zithathe izithombe ezinkambini ezimbili zokuqala.
I-BearCat inomlando othakazelisayo osukela emuva kwekhulu leminyaka, futhi izivakashi zizofunda konke ngakho mayelana nokugibela okuhamba phambili okugijima okugijima kulo lonke ubusika.
Izimbongolo ezimbili ezijwayelekile ongazithola ziholele ama-Percherons, inzalo enobubele nobumnene (ayikholelwa noma cha) inkulu futhi inamandla, i-pounds ngamakhilogremu, kuneClydesdale.
Lawa mahhashi anesisindo esingaphezu kwamamitha angu-2 300 futhi, ngezingubo zawo ezinzima, afaneleka ngokujabulisayo ngemisebenzi yasebusika yangaphandle. Baphinde baqonde imiyalo yezwi futhi banengqondo kakhulu.
I-Percherons izozithoba ngokuzithoba ngezithombe nezivakashi zanoma yikuphi ubudala futhi ngeke ikwazi ukususa lapho kubonakala khona i-flash.
Izinkanyezi ezihamba nge-BearCat, izakhiwo zomlando ezedlule nasemagqumeni avulekile aseScaw Creek Valley.
Izilwane, ezifana ne-elk, inyamazane, ne-hawks, ziningi lapha, ngisho nasebusika.
Ukuhlela isenzakalo esikhethekile? Umuntu oneminyaka engu-15 ubudala, angase aqashwe ngokuhamba ngasese.
Ngemva kokuhamba ngokuphumula, buyela emuva ekamelweni lokudla okudliwa yiTimberHearth e-Cordillera.
Isidlo sezinsuku ezintathu sinikelwa e-Bearden Homestead yasekuqaleni, eyaqala ngasekuqaleni kwekhulu lama-20, futhi yavuselelwa ngokuphelele yiCordillera Preservation Foundation kanye nezitebhisi.
Nakuba ukudla ngokwalo kuyinto engavamile - isitayela se-buffet, senziwe ematafuleni amapulangwe nxazonke endaweni yokudlela encane ezwa kahle ekhaya - ungalindeli ukuthi ubhontshisi bakho obujwayelekile kanye ne-BBQ bakhonza emafetheni ephepha.
Ukudla kuphakathi kwesimnandi kakhulu esimweni. Izitshalo zakho zokudla zokududuza okuthandayo, njengezimbambo ezincane (ezenziwe ngewayini elibomvu le-cabernet sauvignon noma i-juice nge-chablis anyanisi), imifino yemifino (egcwele amaphizi, isilimo esidliwayo esinamagatsha anamanzi, izaqathe kanye ne-veggie veloute emgqeni we-pie) nesobho, ulungiselelwe. Lungiselela ukumangala.
Ukudla kuqala ngesaladi ehlanganisiwe ehlaza okwesibhakabhaka, i-vinaigrette emhlophe, i-feta, i-anyanisi ebomvu, utamatisi namakhukhamba. Hlola futhi isifuba se-Boulder eselusiwe ngemifino ne-black pepper pan gravy.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ujabulele amazambane anomunwe omuncu kanye nemigodi yonyaka.
Izingane zizojabula ngemenyu yezingane ezikhethekile, okubandakanya izingane zakudala, njenge-mac kanye noshizi, iminwe yezinkukhu kanye ne-fruit tray. (Kulungile, abantu abadala bangabamba ngalokhu, futhi.)
Qinisekisa ukuthi ushiya isikhala se-dessert: i-pudding yesinkwa esiphezulu enesisindo yakhonjwe nesinamoni brioche kanye ne-chocolate disney glace.
Ukufudumala ngewayini, i-brew yendawo, ishokoledi eshisayo noma i-toddy eshisayo; le ndawo inomgqomo ogcwele.
Ngemuva kokudla, izivakashi ziyamenywa ukuba ziqoqe 'emgodini womlilo bese zenza iSmores, ngaphansi kwesibhakabhaka esinezinkanyezi.
I-BearCat inikeza futhi ukugibela amahhashi okuqondiswayo, ukuhamba kwezimoto, ukuhamba ngezinyawo ezinezinsuku ezine ukusuka kuVail kuya e-Aspen kanye namaphakheji ahlukahlukene asezindaweni zangasese nasemasontweni.
