Places to Eat at Whistler???
Just got back last night. Had a great meal at Araxi (formal). Prices were a bit steep (NY Steak $85 alone or $105 w/Fois Gris), but worth it to sit down for a nice meal with friends. The other steaks were under $50, and they have an extensive seafood menu. See www.araxi.com for more. Citta is pretty good as well. There's also a southwestern theme place around the corner from Amsterdam cafe that was good. I heard Amsterdam was good, but every time we went they were full. A few of the people in our group came back from Sushi Village with good comments as well. Most places post the menu outside. Have a great time! BillM "John Davison" wrote in message om...

A bit off the beaten track - excellent food and not as hectic as the village restaurants. Not cheap, but not a budget buster either. -- //-Walt // // http://www.bushtax.com/ |

Geezus, but skiing has really lost it's way since the days of sleeping on the Squaw Valley church pews (free and WARM) and skiing KT22 the day after a storm for $5, while living on beer, cheese, and a loaf of French... |

Since a reservation is pretty much required, there must be a lot of other people that are nuts as well. When I lived in Vail at the age of 18 back in the early 80's, I would have thought this nuts too. My roomates and I would eat beans and rice to be able to afford a season pass 'cause skiing was more important than eating. Spending some money on a nice meal with a good group of friends is worth more to me now, and it's not such a blow to the pocketbook now that I'm all grown up (or at least pretend to be for my day job). Some people won't spend more than $10 on a bottle of wine. Some will spend thousands. Most of us are somewhere in between depending on our priorities and means.

There are lots of people who are so nutty that they go somewhere that's both crowded and expensive. Ever been to Vail? When I lived in Vail... Ok. That explains things a bit. -- //-Walt // // http://www.bushtax.com/ |
