Cafe Kandahar (Whitefish, MT; tel. 406/862-6247):. Inspired by French and Creole traditions but more than willing to experiment, Chef Andy Blanton uses as much local produce and meat as he can in such creations as seared elk roulade with forest mushroom, but he also experiments with far-flung influences in a number of creative seafood and pasta dishes.
The Dining Room at Chico Hot Springs (Pray, MT; tel. 800/468-9232): The vegetables served here are grown at the resort's own greenhouse. The game is raised here, and it's served expertly, along with beef, lamb, and other Rocky Mountain staples. Portions are generous and beautifully presented.
