        Description: Located on the Bow Valley Parkway between Banff and Lake Louise, this charming restaurant is worth the drive (which is gorgeous in itself). Set in a log-cabin lodge, the restaurant sports a softly-lit interior accented by deer-antler chandeliers and the crackle of a fireplace. The cuisine is rustic and delicious, notable for its game dishes and its signature apple cake. An adjacent lounge is perfect for relaxing in the winter, and an expansive outdoor patio gives you license to kick back in the summer.

Icefields Pkwy (Hwy 93) Simpson's Num-Ti-Jah Lodge, Lake Louise  T0L 1E0 • 403-522-2167
Distance: ~129 m *
        Description: Perched on the beautiful Bow Lake less than 30 minutes from Lake Louise, this charming lodge was the dream of Jimmy Simpson, one of the area's best-recognized mountain guides. Paying tribute to the native name for the pine marten, a local animal, the lodge has been renovated in recent years. Its restaurant is now one of the area's best. A European flair underlies the cuisine, which fashions local fish and game into delectable entrees. Venison medallions, Alberta beef, Chilean sea bass, and rack of lamb, only hints of the available dishes. The Ram Pasture Platter, with venison sausage and air-dried buffalo, offers a great sampling of local flavor too.

The atmosphere is always relaxed, but festive. Barbecue and beer are on the menu, along with an occasional live band or two. The Kabin is also home base for most on-mountain events (ski races, parties, and so on).
