Description:
Service is largely mechanized at this kaiten sushi bar, where small train cars circle the dining room, laden with sushi of all formulations. Diners look for their favorites and pluck the dishes from the train, selecting as many or as few as they want. Color-coded plates then indicate to the servers the prices of each selection, and they tally up the cost and present the bill. The most popular rolls and choices are constantly supplied to the train, but customers are free to make requests to the chef as well. The whole experience is as much entertainment as it is dining, and if you get carried away by the novelty, you may find yourself with quite a hefty tab. So eat well, but eat carefully. |

Seoul Country Korean Restaurant |

|

Description:
The decor is unassuming, but it necessarily plays second fiddle to the authentic Korean cuisine. The menu doesn't have a large number of items, but each one is spelled out in detail to give you a leg up on unfamiliar dishes. Soups and stews are chock full of good things, and individual barbecues permit grilling at your own table. You'll also find noodle dishes, hot pots, and rice entrees. Accompanying them are bul-go-gi (grilled meats), bi-bim-bab (fried rice), and kim-chi (fermented, spiced vegetables). A taste for some of these side dishes must be acquired, but it's a good idea to sample a few and begin to expand your palate. |

Description:
Typhoon's trendy, pan-Asian décor is a refreshing departure from Banff's charming, but pervasive, rustic mountain interior design. The menu is similarly themed, taking a broad approach to the food of Asia – Thai, Chinese, Japanese and Indian cuisines are dominant. You can stick with one, or mix it up. Favorites include duck spring rolls, gyozas, green papaya salad, edamame, chicken satays, nasi goreng, pad thai, unagi, makhani chicken, miso black cod and Sichuan spicy prawns. There's a good selection of Asian and Belgian beers, and tasty martinis, too! |

Description:
Simple black furniture and an elaborate tile floor distinguish this restaurant, along with a bronze pig that holds court on a pedestal in the room's center. Windows look out over Banff Avenue, and a bistro feel presides throughout. The menu takes cues from all over the world, so along with burgers and steaks, you're likely to find Hunan kung pao pasta, tandoori chicken satay, and Thai green chicken curry. Ribs, chicken and pizzas are also on the agenda, along with a nice selection of wines and beers. Earls is particularly ideal when you want comfort, reliable food, and just to hang out in a relaxing environment. Plus, they have regular drink specials and a couple of their own signature brews. |

Description:
Comfortable and bright, this restaurant features a bank of windows that looks out across downtown Banff and the mountains beyond. The decor isn't authentically Asian, but the cuisine certainly is. Created with fresh ingredients, each dish is tempting and well-seasoned. Sushi and sashimi, prepared with an impeccable attention to detail, are perennial favorites, but tempura selections, noodle dishes, and hot pots are also good choices. A variety of seafood entrees and steaks are also available for those who crave something a little less exotic. |
