WALLISER STUBE AT THE CHATEAU

July 31, 2008

After our adventurous afternoon, we went back to our room and read on the balcony. It was chilly so I wrapped the big wool blanket around me for warmth. Perfect. Dinner was at Walliser Stube, a Swiss-German restaurant at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. We did a little fondue, a little German. We did a Dinner for Two ($79). Tasty breads and yummy salads to start. Then a seafood fondue with shrimp, salmon, and scallops with dipping sauces. The entree was weiner schnitzel and veal stew. Then a chocolate fondue ender including banana bread, marshmallows, and fruit. It was fun and good but I think I’ve had my fill of fondue.

The Grizzly House in Banff is also fun for fondue, a little more reasonable and very casual.
