I was recalling when Calgary had a Four Seasons hotel. Complete respect for that company...as soon as it no longer became a signature, upper level property, they ditched it. Marriott is living off the sloppy seconds...don't know if they've put any money into it, the quality is still there from the Four Seasons, albeit 20+ years old.
Worked at the Four Seasons as a banquet porter / waiter / bartender. Classiest banquets ever. We did French service there where we served 4 tables x 8 diners each from big ass serving dishes to warmed, bare plates placed in front of each patron. Never seen any other banquets served this way. I'm certain this changed when the Four Seasons sold out to whoever. One of the hardest but funnest jobs I've ever had.
