Bowl of Pasta

Family Pride

Forty years ago Alex and Helen Balomenos came to Jasper from Greece with a dream to own a restaurant. For 25 years they worked hard, finally buying Something Else Steakhouse in 1996. Diminutive Helen graciously greets guests, while Alex prepares each plate with care. "We almost never leave the place," says Helen. "And we love serving customers."
Hidden Gem

Tucked away on Patricia St east of Jasper Information Centre, often overlooked Kimchi House offers excellent food and value. Try their dumplings, short ribs on a sizzling iron plate, and spicy hot pot loaded with fresh fish. Owner Monica An “is maybe the most personable restaurateur in Jasper,” says Where publisher Jack Newton.
The “Evilution” of Fine Dining

Eating can fuel the body and ignite the senses. At Evil Dave’s Grill, stands fine dining on its head by serving gourmet cuisine without the pretension. “We want people to laugh, so we came up with an evil theme for our menu. Traditional fine dining is too stuffy for us,” says owner Mike Day. Their most popular entrée is Malicious Salmon, a blackened filet topped with sweet curry yogurt. Talent in the kitchen produced top honours for chef Nicole Langille and her culinary team during the 2010 Jasper Chefs Competition.
Deer-Resistant Flowers

Many Jasper gardeners watch in distress as deer eat the flowers for their morning meal. Barb Finick, however, has discovered a way to keep her flower-filled courtyard patio at the Jasper Inn Restaurant blooming. Her secret? Snap dragons, lavatora and rock garden marigolds—flowers deer eschew. Admire the garden while enjoying a snack, drink or meal. Outdoor heaters and fleece blankets are available for chilly evenings.
