The

Hungry Trout Resort and Restaurant

Good Evening! The HUNGRY TROUT RESTAURANT lies on the banks of the West Branch of the Ausable (Ah-SAY-bull) River, one of the most legendary trout streams in America.

The Bottcher family have been owners for 37 years. The restaurant joins the adjacent 22-unit lodge providing comfortable accommodations in a setting unequalled anywhere. In 1989 the basement of the Hungry Trout was transformed into R.F. McDOUGALL’S PUB and GRILL and has recently been included in the Top 10 Best Fishing Bars in America by Outdoor Life Magazine. You’re invited to have an after-dinner libation at our pub or in our lounge, the AUSABLE ROOM. Thank you for dining with us this evening and we hope you return soon.

ENJOY!

- DINNER MENU -

Thank you for dining with us this evening. R.F. McDougall’s Pub and Grill has been a part of Wilmington’s history for 30 years and under the same family ownership.

Our menu offers a tempting array of steaks, seafood, pastas, burgers, and sandwiches in an award winning Victorian atmosphere unmatched anywhere in the Adirondacks. We’re very proud of that distinction, very proud of our wonderful little town, and very proud that you’re with us tonight. ENJOY!

Ordering Etiq u ette

Experienced restaurant-goers know that more than a little thought goes into ordering, from choosing pre-dinner cocktails to picking the meal courses to selecting the wines served during the meal. They also know how important it is to have made up their minds by the time they let the server know he can take their orders. If you aren’t ready, simply tell your server that you need more time. Holding him there as you keep changing your mind has repercussions: New arrivals at his other tables become impatient, some patrons have to wait longer to order, and the food your server is responsible for delivering to someone else must wait in the kitchen or under a heat lamp.

Two other important points: • The signal that says you’re ready to order is a closed menu. If you keep browsing the menu after you’ve decided what you want, how is the server to know?

• If those in your group want separate checks, make the request of your server at the start, even before you order a drink or appetizer. Asking for individual checks at the end of the meal slows down service for everyone in the restaurant because the server will have to spend time preparing them. Keep in mind that there’s always the chance that a restaurant won’t allow separate checks. If you plan to request them, find out if it’s permissible by calling in advance or asking when you arrive.

main course if you know the servings to be huge. Just be sure to compensate the server with a more generous tip unless an “extra plate” fee is charged. She would have received a larger tip for two full meals, so you might want keep that in mind when calculating how much to leave.

If you aim to have a leisurely conversation during the meal, order foods that can be eaten with ease. Lobster or crab in the shell, unboned fish, and pastas that may be messy or difficult to eat could make more demands on your time and concentration than you’d like. Also think twice about ordering a food that is unfamiliar to you. Unless you know how to eat an artichoke or tackle the crab claw in a bouillabaisse, stick with a dish that poses no unexpected challenges.

W ine

Dinner wine is really a condiment for food, so it’s best ordered after the menu choices have been made. The orderer (preferably the most qualified person at the table) can either choose a wine that goes best with the greater number of dishes or ask the advice of the server – or, in tonier restaurants, the wine steward (also called the sommelier or, if a woman, sommelierei. Given the wide range in character of both red and white wines, the old rule that the former should be served with meat and the latter with seafood is a little musty. An Drinks easy alternative to a shared bottle is wine ordered by the glass, which allows the diners to match the wine with their meals.

It’s fine to order beverages the first time the waiter asks, even if When the server brings the unopened bottle to the table, he shows every guest at your table hasn’t been seated; latecomers can order it to the orderer.
