This pride in neighbors and their hard work pairs perfectly with hot fries, soft country music, and regulars streaming past your booth. Though I had to tap out after three savory burgers, each with their own character, there are many more great restaurants in Wind River Country to get your homegrown beef. After all, it\u2019s what\u2019s for dinner.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cowfishlander.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cowfish<\/a>, 148 Main Street, Lander<\/h4>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cowfishlander.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-12467 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/CowfishBeerCheese-e1509136376137.jpg\" alt=\"Beer Cheese Burger from Cowfish\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/CowfishBeerCheese-e1509136376137.jpg 300w, https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/CowfishBeerCheese-e1509136376137-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/CowfishBeerCheese-e1509136376137-30x30.jpg 30w, https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/CowfishBeerCheese-e1509136376137-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Beer cheese burger:<\/strong> If it weren\u2019t for the flavorful beef at the heart of this meal, the sauce would define it.

Nonetheless, the flavors blend delightfully. Even the pickle works, which surprised and delighted my palate.

This burger hit the table smelling delicious, playing off the hospitality of locals sitting nearby welcoming each new arrival to the dining area. The toasted bun matches up with the hint of char on the patty. Grilled through and with a crunch on the outside, the beef was juicy as soon as I bit in. I savored it, but didn\u2019t try to save any for later. When a classic is executed to a T, you don\u2019t bother with the to-go box.<\/p>\n<p>From the menu: \u201cDubois, Wyoming originally was a ranching and logging town that fed its residents on locally raised meat or local game and vegetables \u2026 At Nostalgia Bistro it is part of our mission to provide our guests with as many locally sourced items as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12472\" src=\"https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Nostalgia1-e1509137486797.jpg\" alt=\"Empty plate at Nostalgia Bistro\" width=\"1108\" height=\"598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Nostalgia1-e1509137486797.jpg 1108w, https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Nostalgia1-e1509137486797-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Nostalgia1-e1509137486797-768x414.jpg 768w, https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Nostalgia1-e1509137486797-1024x553.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/windriver.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Nostalgia1-e1509137486797-30x16.jpg 30w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1108px) 100vw, 1108px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Looking for something to follow your burger, like <a href=\"https:\/\/windriver.org\/blog\/cupcakes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cupcakes<\/a>?\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/windriver.org\/blog\/local-foods\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Find even more local foods across Wind River Country here!<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Schlie\u00dflich ist es das, was es zum Abendessen gibt.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":12473,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"community":[],"season":[],"class_list":["post-12466","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12466","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12466"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12466\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":49822,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12466\/revisions\/49822"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12473"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12466"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12466"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12466"},{"taxonomy":"community","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/community?post=12466"},{"taxonomy":"season","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windriver.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/season?post=12466"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
