SPICY Spring SAMBAL Menu at Dog Days!

It's time to spice things up a little bit!

When you're looking for an extra exciting night, come on out to your favorite waterfront restaurant and bar at the Lake of the Ozarks to enjoy our spicy, exotic Sambal Menu - available only for a limited time at Dog Days Bar & Grill!

What is "Sambal"?

In its simplest form, Sambal is a spicy Southeast Asian condiment made from chile peppers and salt. A more elaborate Sambal may contain onion, lime juice, lemongrass, sugar, garlic, oil, and/or vinegar. You can find Sambal in a jar or bottle at an Asian food market - or in the international aisle at the grocery store.

There are many different varieties of Sambal. Sambal Oelek is the kind you're most likely to find in the United States. We have been experimenting with this sauce this spring, and we're now very excited to offer these all-new food and beverage options at the best restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks for those who like it a little spicy.

Spicy Spring Sambal FOOD

El Cerdo Volcan

Our house sausage blend patty seared to keep the juices in, topped with grilled onions, piquante peppers, ghost pepper cheese. Drizzled with Sambal sauce on a kaiser bun. Served with your choice of side.

Smoked Thai Sambal Wings

Our house smoked jumbo wings flame grilled and tossed in Sambal sauce. Served with bleu cheese or buttermilk ranch dressing.

Sambal Bacon Balls

Our house specialty bacon wrapped meatballs tossed in a spicy Sambal red sauce with melted provolone cheese. Served with garlic bread.

Half a pound of jumbo shrimp sauteed with onions, red peppers, garlic, ginger, Sambal, and beer. Served with roasted red pepper rice and garlic bread.

4 Tricks for Planning a Great Summer Vacation

When the summer bug bites, what do you do to cure the itch? You plan the summer vacation of a lifetime, that's what! The next time you find yourself craving sunshine, water, and a chance to get away from it all, pull these tricks out of your back pocket and start planning a summer vacation that will take your breath away... You can thank your friends at Dog Days Bar & Grill later! 

Trick #1: Plan On Not Doing ANY Cooking
Nothing ruins a lake vacation faster than having to come in off the water early so you can have time to put dinner together before the kids get grouchy! Cooking for a group can be stressful - especially when everyone is tired after a big day in the sun. Do yourself a favor and plan on treating yourself to meals at the best waterfront restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks. Or, ask us about our Lake of the Ozarks catering services - we can bring the party straight to you for your special events!

Trick #2: Music Makes Everything Better
Have you ever noticed? Great music has a unique ability to put everyone in a better mood - even if they're in a good mood to start with! The Dog Days staff is currently putting the final touches on an entertainment schedule filled with the best live music at the Lake of the Ozarks. When you plan your summer vacation at the Lake, be sure to factor in some time to listen to talented local, regional, and national artists perform at the Dog!

Trick #3: Center Your Trip Around One Main Event
Random vacations can be fun, but vacations really come alive when they're centered around one main event. Your trip's focal point can be any number of things - it could be someone's birthday, an anniversary, or one of the great annual events at the Lake of the Ozarks. If you're looking for local events to hit while you're in town this summer, check out the event schedule at Dog Days Bar & Grill. From Canine Cannonball to AquaPalooza, we're sure to have an event that will be exactly what you need to get your vacation started off right. Mark these dates in your calendar now!
