Description:
AIRPORT - YYC. Named for the year its building was constructed, this breakfast eatery has enjoyed a long and successful career and is still going strong. Even though the restaurant has remained in the same place for its entire run, the surrounding neighborhood was transformed in the interim. The wood-framed building began as part of a lumber company and now rests in the middle of an eclectic shopping center. One thing that hasn't changed through the years is the popularity of the food. Breakfast is hot and filling, and portions are large. Business folk clamor for the omelets, scrambled eggs, and other traditional dishes, along with lighter options, such as yogurt. Coffee is fresh and steaming, a no-nonsense wake-me-up to jumpstart the day. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN/EAU CLAIRE. Set in the midst of a river park and accessible only by foot, this charming restaurant has a rustic, lodge-like decor. The cuisine capitalizes on local ingredients (most of them organic or free-range), and the menu changes seasonally as well. The wood-fired oven sends smoky, fragrant scents into the air, marking the restaurant's location and giving hints of the incredible food to come. There's literally nothing that isn't good. Whether you choose wild game, seafood from either coast, Alberta beef, or duck from Quebec, you're ensured of an amazing culinary event. Even the produce is impeccably fresh, and the crusty breads are homemade. Make it a point to see what local cuisine can aspire to – and achieve. An absolute must on all fronts and a great wine list. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN/EAU CLAIRE. Breakfast is best enjoyed at a leisurely pace, an assertion that Nellie's heartily upholds. The cafe serves breakfast all day, allowing patrons to enjoy a variety of classic dishes whenever they choose. If you're in the mood for something sweet, try pancakes or waffles slathered with butter and syrup (or with fresh fruit, if you must). Savory dishes include corned beef hash, omelets, and breakfast burritos. On weekends, the offerings become a bit more exotic. Representative dishes include a seaside omelet and a selection of heartier dishes. The eatery also offers sandwiches if you arrive around midday and want something more standard. |

Description:
SOUTHWEST. Devoted to serving terrific Alberta beef, this restaurant is an area favorite and has been for several decades. It's not as upscale as some of the other steakhouses, but it's a reliable institution that knows how to prepare a good steak. The specialty is roast prime rib of beef, and it comes in several juicy cuts. You'll also find lobster, ribs, pasta, and rotisserie chicken. Side dishes come separately, but each entree is accompanied by bread, soup, and a salad bar, so unless you just have to have a baked potato, chances are that you'll have plenty to eat. If the place happens to be busy (as it tends to be), you're welcome to have a drink in the lounge while you wait. |

AIRPORT - YYC. Lovely views of the lake and the surrounding landscape are a bonus to your meal at Newport Grill. Large expanses of windows make sure that each room takes in the beauty. The menu is somewhat extensive and is influenced by both Continental traditions and native Canadian fare. Among the selections are Alberta beef, rabbit, seafood and lamb. The filet mignon, New York strip and chateaubriand are popular dishes, especially for those who choose to celebrate a romantic occasion at the restaurant. A patio jutting out over the water adds a nice touch on warm days, and the brunch on Sunday invites guests to linger over the delicious cuisine. |
