| Fairmont Palliser Hotel |  | Brunch (Buffet) | Smart Casual | Set in the traditional Rimrock Room and with a selection ranging from waffles to roast beef and omelettes to eggs Benedict, there isn't much this buffet lacks. Reservations Recommended. Good vegetarian selection. | 133 - 9 Ave. SW If you don't know where the Palliser is, you should probably lose your Calgary walking licence. 403 260-1219 | Sunday 11:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. www | |||||
| Falafel King www |  | Middle Eastern | Informal | Good falafels served with a why-are-you-bothering-us attitude. Good vegetarian selection. | 1610 - 10 St. SW 403 802-5464 | 225 - 8 Ave. SW | |||||
| Farm www | | Cheese | Informal | With the rich heritage (and cheese) of Janice Beaton behind it (figuratively as well as literally), this restaruant has much to offer. You can go in for cheese tasting and wine sipping or look for something more hearty such as mac n' cheese or farm fresh sausages, keeping on an eye an the blackboard for daily specials. Our only disappointment was the size–of–protion to price ratio. Reservations are accepted for groups of six or more. Good vegetarian selection.  | 1006 - 17 Ave. SW 403 245-2276 | Su to Th 11:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. 5:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. F - Sa 11:30 a.m.- 2:00 p.m. 5:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m. | |||||
| Fiasco Gelato www |  | Ice Cream | Informal | For good flavour and wholesomeness, try gelato with about 75% less fat than regular ice cream or sorbetto which is fat free. Fiasco is one bright and friendly place to get both of these—as well as sandwiches, soups, drinks and even gelato cakes. Good vegetarian selection, of course. | 207 - 10 St. NW | ||||||
| Fleur de Sel www | | French | Informal | Delightfully unusual, hot and filling French dishes, served by a friendly and knowledgeable staff. Yes, the tables are close but in an appropriately bistro setting. Yes, it is wheelchair accessible, but it will be crowded. | #2 - 2015 4 St. SW 403 228-9764 | ||||||
| French Quarter Café www |  | Cajun | Informal | A general rule we follow is not to look for restaurants with "Industrial Park" in their address. However, last time in Canmore we chose a more traditional setting and had a bad meal. (That restaurant has since closed.) So this time we decided to live dangerously. French Quarter has chairs and tables right from the Alps set against a jazz inspired décor. Very eclectic, just like New Orleans. The Cajun and Creole dishes are quite good, but are pulled down by uninspired trimmings such as plain salads and basic soups. This is a place to watch. Reservations Recommended. The Louisiana Bread pudding with whiskey sauce was superb, even for Dorothy who doesn't like whiskey. | #4 - 102 Boulder Cr. (Elk Run Industrial Park). Canmore, AB |
