If you grew up on the West Coast, chances are the closest you got to a maple sugar shack was while watching an informational video in school. Fortunately, you can now experience something close to the real thing just a quick drive up the Sea to Sky.
In partnership with the Quebec Maple Syrup Producers and Maple from Canada, Whistler’s Bearfoot Bistro will host a spring dining event inspired by the beloved culinary tradition, appropriately titled , happening from April 10 to 30th in Whistler, B.C.
Coinciding with the sap harvest in Québec, when maple trees are tapped to collect the prized “liquid gold”, the dining experience will showcase Bearfoot Bistro’s Culinary Director Dominic Fortin’s Québec heritage through an exceptional menu of maple products, reinterpreted with his innovative style. The menus will also include dishes influenced by French Canadian classics, like tourtieÌ€re made with venison and beef, served with a caribou jus, and for dessert, a classic maple cone made with maple syrup, maple butter, and marshmallows layered and covered in decadent dark chocolate and the iconic maple taffy.
Three family-style menu options will be available with prices starting at $49 so you can easily dine with friends and family. The Bearfoot’s bar team has also developed exclusive maple-influenced cocktails to pair with your meal. You can view the full Magic of Maple menu .

Home to a 15,000-bottle underground wine cellar where guests can saber bottles of champagne and a vodka tasting room recognized as the coldest tasting room in the world (not to worry, parkas are provided), Bearfoot Bistro is a fantastic way to turn a Whistler getaway into an all-out adventure with or without hitting the slopes.
