The age-old question, what should we eat for dinner, unfortunately, doesn’t take a vacation.🍽✈️Oftentimes, the most stressful part of a trip is planning meal options in a location you may not be familiar with without the reliability of a fully stocked kitchen. However, you can (and should!) try new foods, eat that extra dessert, and know it is possible to stick to your health goals. But everyone is different. Assessing where you’re at and what you want to accomplish is the first step.

So we sat down with Sam Topping a certified personal trainer, nutrition coach, and founder and owner of Top Training , for his expert advice on how to stay healthy while enjoying every bite on vacation!

What’s even better than devouring a light, summery meal alongside a crisp, cool cocktail?🍸😎☀️Enjoying it lakeside, where boats drift in and out, and the breathtaking view rolls on for miles. If your summer-loving self craves the flawless combination of delectable cuisine and picture-perfect ambiance, pull into — boats, cars, and everything in between is welcome.

We chat with Ryan Sathre, General Manager of Lola’s Lakehouse, who emphasizes that what sets this dockside retreat apart goes far beyond the stunning view. “Our goal is to provide a total experience that melds unbelievable food and drinks with excellent service, and of course, sitting lakeside with the sun on your shoulders doesn’t hurt.”

Ryan’s gives the dish on his favorite dishes: Pan Seared Sea Scallops and the Tagliatelle Frutti di Mare (gulf shrimp, scallops, mussels, fresh fish, local tomato, and prosecco, yes, please). “You just can’t beat fresh seafood lakeside!” Most locals have their favorites, but you’ll be hard-pressed to find something from this seafood-inspired menu with traditional American fare that you don’t fall in love with.
