Evenings at Lakeside
Written By: Mary Jane McCall | Issue: 2016/07 - July
Lakeside Restaurant strives to exceed your expectations with their inventive menu, which brings the fresh taste of summer to your table.
This summer they have added several delectable dishes to their offerings. Try their Fried Oysters tossed in Nashville “hot oyster” sauce, served with house-made white bread, summer vegetable chow chow, and topped with crispy turnip greens; or, their Lobster Risotto prepared with asparagus, green peas, lemon zest and topped with butter poached shrimp and scallops.
Don’t forget to enjoy one of their refreshing summer cocktails – maybe a Watermelon Martini made with Tito’s Vodka, Watermelon Puree, Triple Sec and a Lemon Twist. Or how about a Blueberry Mule blended with Tanqueray Gin, Blueberry Syrup, Fresh Mint, Lime, and Ginger Ale?
The perfect meal and peaceful lakeside setting seem like all you could hope for, but at Lakeside there’s always more to the story.
Lakeside delights in supporting our community and the areas many non-profits so they graciously feature “Evenings at Lakeside” as a means to support local non-profits.
Laura Huerta, the proprietor at Lakeside, believes that it is” important that we help support the community in which we live and work. We like to focus our efforts on health and human services and in doing so we have seen firsthand how the monies we’ve donated have helped these organizations. The gratitude from others is always appreciated but it’s more about the feeling of doing right by others. It all comes full circle. We are truly blessed to be part of such a wonderful community.”
Wednesday evenings are set aside for area non-profits to join Lakeside in raising money and awareness for their causes. Interested non-profits should contact Lakeside at (828) 526-9419 to select an available date. Lakeside will donate 15 percent of the non-profit’s guest checks that evening to the non-profit. Make plans now to support the Highlands Chamber Music Festival on August 3 and the Scaly Mountain Women’s Club on August 24. It is important when making reservations that you mention that you are there to support your chosen non-profit.
For more information or to make reservations, please call Lakeside at (828) 526-9419. They are located at 531 Smallwood Avenue in Highlands.
