Rocky Mountaineer: A Feast for the Senses

Your taste for adventure isn’t the only thing that’s indulged on a Rocky Mountaineer train journey. Travelling between Vancouver and the Canadian Rockies, what you’ll find on your plate is almost as impressive as what’s outside the glass-dome windows. Onboard the train, you’ll enjoy freshly-prepared, chef-created menus for both breakfast and lunch. From starting your day with buttermilk pancakes served with warm blueberries, to making the tough choice between Alberta beef and wild Pacific salmon for your lunchtime meal, the food onboard Rocky Mountaineer is an indulgence. Much of the inspiration for the menus comes from what you’ll see along the way, with fresh ingredients sourced seasonally from British Columbia and Alberta. Along with gourmet snacks served throughout the journey, you’ll also enjoy complimentary local wines, craft beers, and high-end spirits to toast your adventure.

Your taste for adventure isn’t the only thing that’s indulged on a Rocky Mountaineer train journey. Travelling between Vancouver and the Canadian Rockies, what you’ll find on your plate is almost as impressive as what’s outside the glass-dome windows. Delicious multi-course breakfasts and lunches are served onboard each day you’re on the train, created by Rocky Mountaineer’s professional culinary team.

Those travelling in GoldLeaf Service head downstairs to the dedicated dining room for meals, while those in SilverLeaf Service are served right at the seat. Breakfast onboard is taken seriously—you have a full day of “oohing” and “ahhing” to prepare for—and could include options such as a smoked salmon and egg scramble or cinnamon French toast with Canadian maple syrup, all served with freshly baked pastries and seasonal fruit. At lunch, you might find yourself making the tough choice between Alberta beef and wild Pacific salmon. Luckily for you, every choice is the right one.

Much of the inspiration for the menus comes from what you’ll see along the way, with fresh ingredients sourced seasonally from British Columbia and Alberta. In fact, some routes pass right by the farms that supply Rocky Mountaineer, such as Desert Hills Ranch in Ashcroft, just west of Kamloops. To complement your meals (or just your conversation), premium British Columbia wines from the Okanagan Valley are also served onboard, along with local craft beer. Together with gourmet snacks served throughout the journey, the wine, beer and high-end spirits are all complimentary—and all perfect for toasting your adventure.
