Chef Rob’s Gourmet Cafe

Dutch chef Rob Pronk built a name for himself by serving seriously fresh gourmet food in an atmospheric wooden shack on the side of the dirt road, which runs through the town of Hopkins. He has since moved Chef Rob’s Gourmet Café into the Parrot Cove Lodge where he still changes his menu daily based on what’s fresh (sometimes the ink on the menu is still wet when he opens for business). Seafood comes directly from the dock out front and 99 percent of the rest of the ingredients come from within 30 miles of his restaurant.
