Last Frontier Food Tour, Juneau
8,000 points Duration: 2 hr 45 min Code: JUK7
Prepare for a three-hour, palate-pleasing romp around Juneau's culinary standouts, as you eat and drink your way around a handful of local establishments with a resident guide, savoring a true taste of Alaska's unique flavors. Head out on foot alongside a local resident foodie expert, as you meander a route through Alaska's capital city, passing its memorial parks, public art murals and historic statues. You'll treat your taste buds to a variety of area delicacies dished out of a wide-ranging selection of eateries, from seaside crab shacks and food truck “ships” to a salmon shop, sports bar, upscale chef-inspired restaurant and artisanal teahouse. The day's menu will tantalize every craving: Slurp spoonfuls of King crab bisque and savor a panko-crusted salmon filet. Try Alaskan game sausage and kelp salsa. Eat smoked hog wings pairedwith hard cider and fresh-caught halibut paired with fine wine. Plus, sip Ice Cave Blue Tea sourced from locally grown leaves and nibble on spruce tip salted caramels containing sea salt from the Gulf of Alaska. Then enter the Alaskan Bar, a venerable, turn-of-the-century institution housed in the oldest operating hotel in Southeast Alaska. Among the saloon-style setting from 1913, you'll sample three award-winning suds from the nearby Alaskan Brewing Company.
