Hi all - I will be in Luray Saturday night, and was wondering if there was anywhere in the town or the surrounding area that would be worthwhile for dinner. Nothing too heavy, as I'll be attending a triathlon training clinic the following morning. Thanks! Catharine --- [The following posts have been split into separate threads: Southern Kitchen (SRJ)]

Pollock Dining Room at Skyline Resort
DanielK posted a topic in Washington DC Restaurants and Dining
I have no idea where else to post this, but wanted to call attention to the restaurant at the Skyland Resort inside Shenandoah National Park. No reason to go here, of course, unless you're traveling on Skyline Drive, but I was suitably impressed by the Pollock Dining Room. I mean, we had no expectations whatsoever - the entire dining/hotel function inside the park has been outsourced to Aramark. But the Wild Mushroom Tart and Wedge Salad were excellent. And not just excellent for a park restaurant - these were very very good dishes. Entrees, including Pan-Seared Trout, Fried Chicken, and Chicken-Fried Steak were far better than they needed to be. Honestly, based on what we ate, I wish we'd have gone for the more interesting-sounding dishes, but we clearly ordered too conservatively. Blackberry cobbler and blackberry ice cream were very good as well. Our waitress said that a new chef came in at the beginning of the year, and I believe it. If your travel plans include driving Skyline Drive, definitely time your run for a meal here.
