Dusty's Bar & BBQ
The Perfect Mountain Pub
(6/10/2009 1:48:00 PM)
Dusty’s is the perfect mountain pub – great big cabin feel inside, expansive patios with a great view up the mountain outside. And tripping distance from the gondola makes it the perfect spot for après if you’re skiing in to Creekside. The bar doesn’t try to do a lot, but what it does do, it does very well. A great menu of pub food including some barbeque items, amazing burgers and large portions of nachos for those mountain munchies make it suited to both après ski snacking, or a casual dinner later on. The service is fast and friendly, with a view to keeping those pitchers coming. They also show a variety of live sports on a big screen and have live music some nights. The atmosphere is always lively and unpretentious. There is no other bar I’d rather spend my Whistler evenings in.

Le Gros
Not worth the journey
(6/10/2009 1:32:04 PM)
We decided to try this out-of-the-way restaurant in Whistler thinking that it must be pretty good to survive so far from the village. There was a nice cosy feel that gave a real sense of a family-run restaurant instead of the glitzy chains that monopolise Whistler, and given the ingredients used, the prices weren’t outrageous. Those positives apart, the rest of the experience was quite disappointing. The food was smothered in butter – I love French food, but I’ve never seen so much used in a single dish, and portion quantity seemed to take precedence of quality. The wine list was also a let-down – no French wine available by glass in a French restaurant? The service was so-so, but I expected better from a privately run establishment. I don't think it's worth getting in your car for.
