Dine in the Pines at A Cook’s Forest Feast Weekend (July 28-30)

Gateway Lodge, located in northwestern Pennsylvania on the edge of Cook Forest is a grand getaway destination with the intimate feel of a bed and breakfast. Gateway Lodge also offers a “farm-to-forest” dining experience paired with an award-winning wine collection; it’s the perfect weekend jaunt for foodie travelers.

Join Gateway Lodge from July 28–30 for A Cook’s Forest Feast Weekend event with an extraordinary meal prepared by Pittsburgh chef Kate Romane. Served at a communal outdoor table, the meal will feature seasonally-inspired dishes like peaches with radicchio, sheep feta, basil and pepitas; grilled tenderloin with rosemary, thyme and lemon; grilled rapini with chili garlic and pecorino; and olive oil cake with blueberry, sour cherry and whip.

Deb Adams, the innkeeper at Gateway Lodge shares, “We are excited to bring chefs to Cook Forest with similar philosophies to Gateway Lodge about sourcing and preparing food. We reap the benefits of their skills and culinary insights while surrounded by the beauty of our forest environment. Our guests enjoy a whole new experience, while we are able to introduce Cook Forest to those who follow our guest chefs, and both culinary teams enjoy the benefit of collaboration.”

The weekend package includes:

  • 2-night stay in a luxury suite
  • Complimentary wine and appetizer reception on Friday
  • Outdoor “Big Table” dinner by chef Kate Romane on Saturday
  • Farm-to-table breakfast each morning
