Modern Mountain Cuisine meets rustic elegance at The St. Regis Aspen Resort’s new signature restaurant, Velvet Buck, which is named for the velvet fur that grows on the antlers of a male deer. The restaurant pays homage to the mountain men and women who settled the Rocky Mountains in the 1800’s. Velvet Buck’s menu celebrates the culinary rituals of the era, with special focus on local ingredients and primal cooking techniques.
