Have you ever found yourself at a restaurant and just unsure what to order? Sometimes there are many choices and you just want to know what is the best thing they offer. What are they known for? What is their signature dish? You can ask the waiter but sometimes they say everything is good and then you are left in the same position of uncertainty. SO you scope through the menu, make your choice and you and your friends receive your plates. Next thing you know, your friend says it’s the best thing they have ever ordered and they are sitting across from you oohing and ahhing over their dish. Yours is still good but you just wish for an instant that you had ordered what she ordered.

Let’s start with some signature dishes in the resort village of Mont Tremblant.
La Forge
They have the filet mignon and then they have Filet Mignon ‘La Forge’. If they name a dish after the restaurant, that’s usually a good sign. This filet mignon is topped with Fois Gras, mushrooms and a red wine sauce.
Coco Pazzo Restaurant
This Italian restaurant has been on the resort for 20 years this year and has quite a few dishes that we just love but ask anyone and they’ll tell you the seafood pasta is the one you just have to have!
La Diable – The ribs!
Casey’s
The Chicken fajitas. Build your own with fresh chicken, sautéed vegetables, sour cream, cheddar and jack cheese, salsa, guacamole and warm tortillas.
Nansen at the Fairmont Hotel – The Short Ribs

Moving on to the Old Village and surrounding area….
