Location
111 Lake Louise Drive, Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada
Description
Menu cover depicts Mount Eisenhower with the caption: "North of the Canadian Pacific main line and visible from the highway that links Banff and Lake Louise is a mighty monument. Known for many years as Castle Mountain, eight miles long and 9,890 feet at its highest peak, this towering landmark is Canada's tribute to General of the Armies Dwight D. Eisenhower, G.C.B. Just as the likeness of the up-thrust peak to the turrets and battlements of medieval military architecture led to its original name, the four-square rugged quality of the great mountain inevitably suggested itself as a fitting emblem of the great military leader the people of Canada wished to honour."
