Alta Bistro - Whistler

Another late post, we were up in Whistler with my cousins last last December.   We started off with a couple of cocktails which we enjoyed immensely.  They infuse their own syrups and alcohol so you'll find that they were all very unique.

We enjoyed the starters more than the mains but all in all a very enjoyable meal.  Make sure you make reservations as this place gets packed.  I also like that they are committed to sustainablity - they support local farms, fair trade coffee, chocolate, organic meats, no antibiotics - you get the idea.
