Chaya - Japanese Restaurant in Banff

And the food trail continues!!
We stopped by a restaurant that we went to previously, called Chaya. It is a Japanese restaurant that specializes in Ramen and Udon. They also have sushi that can be bought from the counter.


We got some Gyozas as a side dish :)


My favourite Kitsune Udon!! sweet beancurd skin in a clear soup :)


Mum got the wonton ramen


Sis got the miso ramen


Affordable and nice to eat during the winter!! ^_^

The Old Spaghetti Factory - Banff, Alberta

The original Old Spaghetti Factory is actually in Gastown, Vancouver. But who can resist trying the second branch in Banff? :)

Try to make a reservation or go early though, its relatively crowded and you might have to wait for quite awhile...


We ordered the strawberry and the banana milkshakes

Our appetizers - Caesar salad for mum, Clam Chowder soup for sis and French onion soup for me :)


Sis ordered the parmesan chicken with tomato sauce pasta


Mum ordered the Alfredo Fettuccine (i think!)


I ordered the Clam pasta ... which turned out to be a Clam chowder like pasta... i was actually expecting a white wine sauce clam pasta OOPS!


We all ended up with our stomachs being SUPER full and bloated. And there is still dessert! one super huge scoop of vanilla ice cream :)
