Whistler

YO U R W H I S T L E R DINING ADVENTURE BEGINS

Something happened in the early days of

restaurants

in

Whistler—something

about the mixing of haute cuisine and funky burgers, weekend warriors and local characters, red-checkered tablecloths and elegant wall sconces — that’s been distilled into the dining experience ever since.

If a restaurant is where you “restore” yourself, then Whistler’s first was Rainbow Lodge. Guests had home-cooked meals included; those without lunches on the 1950s “picnic trains” could buy sandwiches on arrival.

After that, it was L’Après, opened in 1966 by Leo and Soula Katsuris to feed the workers building the first gondolas. Breakfast was 85 cents, and you might have run into Prime Minister Trudeau and family skiing.

With the ’70s came the start of the flurry: Rudy’s Mountain Holm Steakhouse served the finest flaming steaks; the Christiana Inn packed mountain lunches; the Cheakamus Inn offered a touch of Europe. The Keg was the first purpose-built restaurant and, oh, if those beams could talk. It was a hotbed of good food and sometimes wildly good times before the building became municipal hall.

This book is dedicated in loving memory

The ’80s set the stage for Whistler’s main

to our dear friend

village with Stoney’s, The Gourmet Bakery

Mikito Homma June 22, 1947 to August 9, 2017

and the iconic araxi.

Hungry customers never looked back.

Wherever you went, locals mingled with visitors in a dynamism fuelled by good food and good drink. That, happily, has been the passport to any great resort experience to this day.

W H I S T L E R ’ S T O A S T T O S PA I N BAR OSO Taking cocktail culture by storm, Bar Oso, Araxi Restaurant’s sisterproperty, is an ode to Spain.

Bar Oso – “oso” meaning “bear” in Spanish, an homage to Whistler’s wildlife – is open daily and offers a profusion of Spanish-influenced small plates including Iberico ham, bocadillos and pinxtos, housemade charcuterie, hand-crafted cocktails, and inspired wines. The long, convivial bar has become a popular meeting place.

Araxi’s renowned Restaurant Director Neil Henderson, along with Executive Chef James Walt, oversee all aspects of Bar Oso ensuring that Toptable Group's long held international reputation for excellence in food, wine, and hospitality is extended and enjoyed by the guests of Bar Oso. Chef Jorge Muñoz Santos, formerly part of the Araxi team, leads the day-to-day operations.

Bar Oso is located at #150 – 4222 Village Square. Further information can be found online at baroso.ca or by calling 604.962.4540.

Open daily from 11:30am – late.

THE CELLAR BY ARAXI While many of our guests know us for our beautiful dining rooms, compelling cuisine and deep wine lists, event planners and corporate clients also recognize our excellence in orchestrating private dining room events. The Cellar by Araxi is the perfect private venue to enjoy the art of true hospitality. Further information at thecellarbyaraxi.com.

The festivities begin in the Champagne Lounge, where your crystal flute awaits in a cradle of illuminated ice.

Come summer, the action heats up outside on the Mediterranean-style patio. Decked out with a large bar and elegant outdoor furniture including sun beds and sofas to create a modern outdoor oasis to relax, it is the perfect spot to have a signature cocktail.

Whatever the season, the Bearfoot Bistro is the ultimate Whistler experience.

“A night at the Bearfoot Bistro is always memorable, often staggeringly so. But if the Bearfoot Bistro is simply the most polished version of the Whistler ethos of eating well, drinking quality, and making it to the lift on time, it’s André’s vision of adding fun and frolic that makes it a little slice of the heaven mountain-goers seek.”

sumptuous as they were inspired by Great Indian Emperors and prepared to perfection by chefs of bygone eras. The Moghals who brought renaissance and enrichment to Indian culture favoured the technique of cooking in a Tandoor clay oven. A replica is displayed at our entrance.

From the Tandoor oven comes a parade of delicious creations, and the best way to sample these treats is to order a Mixed Grill, complete with chicken, fish, prawns, Seekh Kabobs and Lamb Tikka. Nan (Tandoori bread) is baked vertically in the Tandoor. You will become a fan of stuffed nan such as Spinach Nan, stuffed with Indian cheese and spinach. The selection of heavenly spices which favours Indian cooking creates heavy hits of flavour at every turn. No wonder that ginger and turmeric, the special ingredients of Indian cooking, are known as a healing power.

The Tandoori Grill is a great place to spice up your life with delicious Tandoori dishes, or simply sample from our extensive wine list, also featuring the Best of Okanagan Wines and Indian Beers. The restaurant also features semi-private settings for large groups.

“ Our mission is to represent a unified voice for Whistler restaurants in respect to marketing, purchasing, and community relations that is in the best interest of our members and guests.”

The Restaurant Association of Whistler (RAW) Hall of Fame recognizes members of our food and beverage community who have been pioneers, trailblazers and innovators within our beloved restaurant industry. We are delighted to honour the following...

8 Chef Pascal Tiphine, one of Whistler's original restaurateurs, wasn't one for fancy sauces or sparse Parisian cuisine. Rather, his food was "country-French" — the kind of hearty, wholesome fare right from the land, the kind of food that makes you feel replete. It was just like the chef himself — downto-earth, honest, authentic.

For more than three decades, Tiphine was a key figure in Whistler's restaurant scene, seeing it grow and having a role in taking it from its nascent beginnings through the commercial boom to a worldclass food destination. The first restaurant he opened was Madame’s Bistro, followed by Sundial Restaurant, Les Deux Gros and finally Les Gros.

"He was always welcoming, social, making sure everybody was comfortable and well served," said friend Bob Barnett. "And he liked to have fun.”

Born in France November 18, 1943 Joel Thibault immigrated to Vancouver in 1966. He mastered his craft as a restaurateur in Chamonix, the French Riviera, the William Tell Restaurant, Le Creperie, Umberto's La Galleria in Seattle, Chez Joel's in Vancouver and Whistler and his latest venture Bavaria Restaurant. Joel had a unique way of making everyone he met feel special.

Before he moved to Whistler in 1985, Thibault had a go at growing grapes and making wine in the Okanagan from 1983 to 1985. "It didn’t go as I expected. I decided to go back to Whistler to do what I do best, and that’s manage restaurants.”

Chez Joel in Gastown was doing just fine at the time. Still, his heart was in the mountains, and as a veteran of European ski resorts, he saw the potential that Whistler offered.

"With my experience in the Alps, I could see what was going on in Whistler as it was becoming a super resort, and of course, loving the mountain life, I wanted to be involved with that," said Thibault.
