This dinner menu has a different view of Minaki Lodge from yesterday’s lunch menu. The water in the background is supposed to be the Winnipeg River, but the river is really more of a series of lakes beginning with Lake of the Woods and continuing with Big Sand Lake at Minaki and ending at Lake Winnipeg in Manitoba.

Although you can’t tell from the above image (as I size all images to be about the same), this menu is larger than the lunch menus shown over the past three days: about 7″x10″ rather than 6″x9″. Almost three years ago, I presented another dinner menu that, like today’s, was used for the American Association of Railroad Ticket Agents’ trip to Seattle. That menu featured Percé Rock near Gaspé.

The covers of both dinner menus are a bit fancier than those of the lunch menus. This one features drawings of larch needles; the Percé Rock menu features an abstract allusion to ocean waves.

Both today’s menu and the Percé Rock menu were priced at $2.50 or about US$25 in today’s money. The dinner menus aren’t much different from the lunch menus: appetizer or soup, a choice of entrées, potatoes and vegetables, bread, dessert, and beverage. The entrées on today’s menu were halibut, Denver omelet, veal cutlets, and roast turkey. The Percé Rock menu offered lake trout, mushroom omelet, ham steak, or roast ribs of beef.
