OUTSIDE YOUR DINING ROOM WIN - DOW,  LAYER-UPON-LAYER  OF  MOUNTAINS FADING INTO A HAZE OF EVENING LIGHT. FROM THE  HEARTH  OF THE GREAT FIREPLACE, A BLAZE OF COLOR  RIVALED ONLY BY THE FIESTAWARE THAT SETS THE TABLE.  A GLASS OF WINE,  SOME CRUSTY BREAD,  AND SOME OF THE BEST FOOD THAT DINING IN THE BERKSHIRES HAS TO OFFER.

   JOHN DUDEK   IS THE CHEF AND THE MANAGING PARTNER OF BASCOM LODGE GROUP. FOR MOST OF HIS  YEARS  IN THE  MANHATTAN RESTAURANT  INDUSTRY,  HE WAS  THE  PASTRY CHEF AT THE THREE  STAR  NEW  AMERICAN RESTAURANT HUBERT'S  AND LATER,  AT THE DUANE  PARK CAFE  IN TRIBECA. PRIOR TO MANAGING THE BASCOM LODGE,  HE CO-AUTHORED  THE BOOK SORBETS AND GRANITIES FROM  THE  DUANE  PARK CAFE.  DURING  THE OFF  SEASON,  HE  WORKS  AS  A  PRIVATE  CHEF TO CLIENTS  INVOLVED  IN  POLITICAL  AND  NON- PROFIT  FUND  RAISING  FOR CULTURAL ORGANIZATIONS AND PRIVATE ENTERTANING.

THE  CONCEPT   -   "FOOD  WITH  ALTITUDE"

     THE KITCHEN AT BASCOM LODGE  STRIVES TO PRODUCE  FRESH, HAND - MADE, "FLAVOR-DRIVEN"  FOOD,  CRAFTED FROM INGREDIENTS PURCHASED FROM LOCAL,  FAMILY OWNED AND OPERATED BERKSHIRE, HAMPSHIRE, AND COLUMBIA COUNTY FARMS.

     AS A MEMBER OF  BERKSHIRE GROWN,  ALL THE PRODUCTS THAT WE USE IN THE PREPARA- TION OF OUR FOOD ARE  FRESH,  SEASONAL INGREDIENTS.  FROM  THE HOME - MADE  MUFFINS SERVED AT BREAKFAST,  TO THE  ICE CREAM AND SORBET AT DINNER,  EVERYTHING IS MADE IN-HOUSE, DAILY.

          OUR   PRIX FIXE  DINNER MENU  CHANGES  NIGHTLY.  OVER  THE  COURSE  OF A SEASON,  OUR GUESTS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY  TO EXPLORE THE  WIDE  RANGE  OF ETHNIC INFLUENCES  THAT HAVE  PEPPERED  THE AMERICAN PALATE. THE COMBINATION OF FLAVORS, THE DIVERSITY OF  INGREDIENTS, AND  COOKING TECHNIQUES  USED, PROVIDE A CULINARY EXPERIENCE THAT IS AS BROAD IN IT'S SCOPE AS THE LODGE IS BREATHTAKING IN IT'S SETTING.

LOOKING  FOR  A  BIT  OF  CRUMPET  AFTER  A  MORNING  OF  BIRDWATCHING?
