The Colander
The Colander is a Trail institution opened in 1972 by the LeRose family, rooted in the all-you-can-eat boarding house dining tradition of early Italian immigrant workers at Cominco. Renowned for its secret-recipe pasta sauce, it has been named by Beautiful BC magazine as one of the province's top 24 restaurants and voted the #1 Italian restaurant in the East and West Kootenays. Cyclists passing through the Kootenays will find generous, hearty portions — reviewers routinely leave with leftovers.
