Kim Raff | The Salt Lake Tribune Beef tenderloin with mushroom butter, roasted red onion sauce and a ramp and potato custard is representative of the new menu at Snowbird's The Aerie restaurant.

$36 • Steak, mushrooms, potato and vegetables sounds pretty sedate, right? Wrong! The beef tenderloin at The Aerie is a delightfully creative reworking of classic ingredients. The dish starts with an expertly cooked, quality tenderloin. Add in mushroom butter, a roasted red onion sauce and a spectacular soufflé-like ramp and potato custard — and you have a dish fit for the inspiring views that the restaurant affords every diner.
