Obviously micro-beer loving parents will be in heaven, and younger kids and picky eaters will appreciate the separate menu created just for them. Main menu items range from delectable barbeque and rotisserie to wood oven pizza, pasta, salads and appetizers perfect for sharing in a large group.

    Health-conscious families, or those with dietary needs and food allergies, should give The Wildflower Restaurant at The Fairmont Chateau Whistler a try. Their brunch is out-of-this-world, and while the food is of the highest standards, the price is right.
