Restaurant
Hooded Merganser Bar and Grill
October 28, 2009
Named after a rare and reclusive diving duck, the Hood is built on piles that straddle Lake Okanagan at the Penticton Lakeside Resort. Wrap-around windows provide panoramic views of the lake and mountains. Despite its duck moniker, the kitchen turns out only one version: a crisp-skinned pan-seared breast and leg confit ($25). The signature dish is an eight-hour lasagne ($13) alternating layers of braised beef brisket and delicate pasta. The wine list represents the best local wineries.
