Description:
AIRPORT - YBA. Giorgio's envelops diners with richly-colored walls and gleaming woodwork, offering a cozy respite from the winter weather outside. Locals call this one of their favorite places, and you can tell by the people waiting for a table that it's popular. Homemade pastas and pizzas are the main draw, although the osso buco and shrimp with garlic and olive oil demand attention too. Pizzas are fired in a wood-burning oven and come in various combinations, including one with tiger shrimp, mussels and cilantro. Among the featured desserts are two Italian classics, tiramisu and zabaglione. |

Description:
AIRPORT - YBA. 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:
AIRPORT - YBA. Colorful and fun, this restaurant focuses on the zesty cuisine characteristic of the Mediterranean. Fresh ingredients bring out the flavors, and the kitchen ensures that everything they prepare is first-rate. Pastas include seafood linguini, topped with mussels, tiger prawns and scallops and tossed in a creamy pesto sauce; pizzas include the Boozy, which comes with chicken, spinach, roasted garlic and feta on a marinara base and is brushed with tequila. Main dishes tip towards steak and seafood, but you'll also find lamb shank with an almond brandy picada and a grilled eggplant tower with baby potatoes. |

Description:
AIRPORT - YBA. Named for a Swiss canton bordering Italy, this charming restaurant offers a rustic decor that's tempered by refined details and attentive service. The European-styled cuisine is influenced by both countries and makes use of Alberta's local ingredients too. Notable starters include homemade gnocchi with smoked duck breast on walnut sauce, and the restaurant's wild mushroom soup. A featured pasta might be egg noodles with tiger prawns, scallops and clams in an orange ginger sauce. Fondue remains a popular dinner entree, but you'll be tempted, too, by baked salmon, roasted duck breast, venison medallions, or lamb with figs, dates and mint. A selection of wines is available as well. |
