Puccini's (the old Uncle Tuckers) just before Cumberland on I-68. They feature two for one wood fired pizzas on Tuesday. Awesome.....

If you like authentic German food, try the Schmankerl Stube in Hagerstown. Excellent! and a awesome beer selection. Not far off I-70 on the way to Whitetail or any place west of here.

For great wood fired pizza on the way to 7Springs, try the Italian Oven on Route 31. A wood fire pizza, salad with pesto ranch dressing and a frosted glass of Yuengling! Ah yes!

For an expensive meal in a beautiful setting try:

Leslie's Mountain View Inn - about 5 miles west of Hidden Valley off Route 31. Outstanding food in a beautiful setting.

Inn at Georgian Place - try the locally grown ostrich. It's like the best fillet mignon you've ever had.

Green Gables - in Jennerstown. One of the most unique settings you'll ever eat in. The roof in the ballroom is held up by 4 - 400 year oak trees. The dinning room is also very unique. Attached to the restuarant is the Mountain Playhouse - the oldest continuously operating theatre in the U.S. Excellent quality food and plays. Not to be missed.

For moderate dinning try:

Riverside Cafe - Confluence. Sit on the porch and watch the fly fisherman on the Youghegany (spelling?). Very good food.

JP's - in Somerset. Try the greek salad. Awesome. and the seafood is excellent

The Pine Grill - in Somerset. Decent food at a decent price.

The Laurel Mountain Inn - try the prime rib.

We need fuel our bodies for skiing, thus eating well goes with skiing well!!

This is excellent info Snowsmith!!!! Maybe Scott will post some of these restaurant ideas in the Q&A section. I'm always looking for alternatives to McDonalds....Somerset is where most of us stay when we go to 7S, so I like those suggestions. Also, Confluence is on the bike trail for people looking for biking fuel.

The restaurant guide is neat idea, although input is highly personal and highly perishable (pun intended), restaurants notoriously short lived businesses. Here's a few I like that I think are still in business:
Bavarian Chef, Madison, VA, near mass/wintergreen/homestead, superb bavarian food
Elliot's, Hot Sprgs, VA, near homestead, neat little fine dining experience for reasonable price
Siriani's, Davis, WV cv/tline, good pizza
Park N Dine, Hancock, MD, near wisp/bk/7spr/hv/laurel, used to be pretty good quality "diner" food and very affordable
Red Horse steak house, Frederick, MD, near lib/rt/wt, good red meat
Chubby’s BBQ, Emmitsburg, MD, real near lib, good bbq.

A ski trip drive-past PA beer distributor guide.

JimK - I thought the Red Horse was in Hagerstown on US 40, although I could be confusing it with another restuarant.
