La Brasserie Des Artistes in Whistler

La Brasserie Des Artistes on UrbanspoonMany of the restaurants were full with an average wait time of 1 hour. We were getting a bit discouraged in finding a restaurant, but we were lucky and found La Brasserie Des Artistes located on Village Stroll in Whistler Village. It was a small restaurant, half of it taken up by a bar. It was old wooden setting, and a bit cramped in the booths. Gives off a hipster, but a bit rustic feel out in the wilderness. The wall by the booths had mural paintings.

I ordered a small sized Chicken Pesto Penne $10.95 (Fraser Valley chicken with basil pesto, garlic, white wine, and cream, shaved Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top of penne noodles). The portion was quite small, and pricey for the size. But it tasted good.

I had a bit of Sheepie’s Spaghetti Bolognese small $10.95 (La Brasserie’s rich homemade meat sauce made from Alberta lean beef mixed with spaghetti noodles). Again, the size was pretty small. But the sauce was really rich and delicious. I really liked the dish.

Overall, the service was satisfactory, the food was good. The atmosphere is ok, only because I’m not really into the bar scene. The price was a bit expensive for the quantity.
