The Old Bauernhaus in Kimberley

Kimberley is one of those lovely mountain towns that you want to return to time and time again.  Each trip I make there I discover something new that strengthens my afinity for small towns in the Kootenays.  On a recent trip I was fortunate to dine at the Old Bauernhaus Restaurant which is located a few minutes from Kimberley's popular Platzl, on the road to the Kimberley Alpine ski resort.  The building itself is fascinating.  Built in 1640 in Bavaria, it was dismantled, shipped to Kimberley in 1987 and rebuilt as a warm, inviting restaurant.  We had "the feast" which pretty much sums it up.  Course upon course of slowcooked food arrived at the table.  It just kept coming and I just kept eating it all because it was absolutely delicious.  The food is German, which has never been a favourite of mine....but I am now a convert and will be back on my next visit to this lovely town.
