“…my partner and I agreed on our top two — we even got second bowls of each as the chefs cleaned up to leave.

…Sausage, this time homemade using pork from nearby Gaylord Farm, was also the centerpiece of the entry from the Hyde Away Inn & Restaurant. The lightly spiced meat imparted a sense of mischief to what looked like a simple, healthy kale soup filled with orzo.”

A week before the big game, the Inn at the Round Barn Farm in Waitsfield hosted its liquid equivalent. This was my first time at the Souper Bowl, an event created by Round Barn chef Charlie Menard.

The Hyde Away Inn was featured in a Yankee Magazine article titled, Mad River Valley | Vermont’s Snow Globe in the January/February 2014 issue.

“At the Hyde Away, a comfortable old shoe of an inn just off Route 100 on the way to Mad River Glen, I spent an agreeable hour in the pub having drinks with a member of another venerable New York institution, the Fire Department. Other Vermont resorts are thick with Bostonians or Montrealers, but Gotham still skis the Valley.”

Best Menu Reinvention

AL: Before this year, the fusty après-ski bar Hyde Away Inn & Restaurant was barely on my radar. But general manager Bruce Hyde Jr. and chef Ryan Mayo have remade the inn’s eatery into a localvore destination. When I visited in September, I flipped for the Parmesan-flavored risotto cakes in smoked-tomato sauce and the buttery duck Reuben. Looking at the latest menu, I know I’ll have to return for the braised-oxtail grilled cheese with marrow butter and pork-fat wings.

“Risotto cake is a dish that’s usually done badly, so over the years I have grown to fear it. Making them round and calling them arancini won’t help you, either, if you don’t have a stellar base. Luckily, the Parmesan-imbued risotto at the remade Hyde Away in Waitsfield was exactly that.

But the true secret was in the sauce, a smoky blend of local tomatoes topped with even more Parmesan and mushrooms sautéed in wine.”

Once again, the Hyde Away was featured in the December, 2013 issue of SKI Magazine.
