 Keystone has gained a reputation for fine dining, thanks to the Colorado Mountain College Culinary Institute which is based there. Qualified students apprentice for three years in the resort’s restaurants under world-renowned chefs before receiving degrees in culinary arts from the American Culinary Federation. So, lucky Keystone visitors get to sample the fruits of their labors.
Keystone has three dining experiences not to be missed—Alpenglow Stube, perched at 11,444 feet on North Peak and the highest gourmet restaurant in the country; Ski Tip Lodge, the cozy inn where all of Keystone’s history oozes from every log; and Keystone Ranch, named one of Colorado’s Best Restaurants by the Zagat Survey. All are sophisticated gourmet restaurants in charming settings, perfect for romantic dinners or groups of adults (and not at all suitable for noisy young children). The chefs at each have a friendly rivalry which helps to keep the standards high. Save room for dessert and appetizers.
