2. The Spot: Red Door Bistro

Why Now: Venture out of the main village and head to a new French bistro in Creekside that’s always booked. When you’re in Whistler, no matter the time of year, you want to feel like you are in ski country. Opened by longtime local RD Stewart, Red Door’s intimate, cabin-style ambiance paired with its fresh cuisine will appease that West Coast comfort you are after.

Must Order: Mussels, Duck Confit Spring Rolls and Bouillabaisse.
