My husband and I took an incredible flight seeing tour to Taku Glacier Lodge this past June. The entire trip was an experience we will never forget. The meal that was prepared for us was absolutely delicious! All you can eat Salmon bake! Included with our meal were these herb biscuits (of which I had two), were amazing! These was light, flakey, tasting treats of heaven in my mouth! They were served warm with butter and had such a wonderful taste. I was happy to discover the recipe here and hurried to whip up a batch. They did not disappoint! Although the feeling of the lodge with the crackling fire was missing, the same yummy taste was undeniable! Bake up a batch soon....or better yet...go visit Taku Lodge yourself!!
