| Price Guide: | $$$$ |

| Location: | Westin Resort & Spa, Base of Whistler Mt. |
| "Canadian" cuisine used to mean maple syrup pancakes, green pea soup and a backbacon sandwich. No more. This is the Westin Resort & Spa's main dining room and it offers up a doozy menu. Think caribou strip loin harvested by Nunavut hunters from the Far North. Think Fraser Valley (east of Vancouver) Cornish game hen. Think Alberta veal tenderloin matched with a half Maritime lobster tail and giant Digby scallops. Think about washing all that down with a cornucopia of fine wines from British Columbia's vaunted vineyards. | |

| Price Guide: | $$$ |
| Menu Style: | Haute Cosmopolitan |
| Location: | Hilton Resort Hotel, Base of Whistler Mt. |
| The main restaurant playground for the Delta Whistler Resort Hotel, if you don't have the salmon skewered on lemon grass you haven't had B.C. salmon. The chef has won international awards for it and it's worrying him to no end. "A chef always wants to change things on the menu, but the popularity of this dish forces us to keep it on year after year," says our hero. | |

| It's a territorial kind of place. Stake out your claim before you claim your steak. The best seat is a horseshoe-shaped booth in the middle of the room. You can watch whatever's going on, it's romantic, comfortable, and yet you get a good deal of privacy even being in the middle of the room. Another best seat is the table by the fireplace. Not to the side of the fireplace, mind you, but in front because you want center stage. Let the flames in the hearth make you a fuel for love. | |

| Price Guide: | $$ |
| Menu Style: | French Café |
| Location: | Village Stroll, Main Village |
| Yes, you can sit inside, but thanks to the invention of awnings and propane trees, you want to place your order while among the Village Stroll-side tables outside so you can see and be seen by the wandering world heading home from the slopes. "The Brass," as it's affectionately known to the locals, also serves a popular breakfast. | |
