Food
Cooking is a subject close to our hearts and our innovative international menu is guaranteed to satisfy your appetite. All of our food is prepared in-house by our highly trained and experienced staff. Sample weekly menus are available upon request and we are more than happy to cater for any special dietary requirements or requests.
We will provide canapés and welcome drinks on arrival, cooked breakfasts, afternoon tea and gourmet evening meals served with local wines and cheeses, six days a week.
Although many may consider Tartiflette as the gastronomic highlight of the Alps, there is plenty more to experience in and around the area. With the Mont Blanc tunnel providing the gateway between France and Italy, there is a variety of authentic and some of the most renowned European cuisine available to sample. The Saturday farmers’ market gives an indication of the fine produce available from the region.Chamonix has its own selection of great restaurants, including the Michelin Star Albert 1er, Munchies for a more oriental sensation and L'Impossible for truly classic French dining. Essentially, whatever you crave we know the best place find it (from foie gras to a late night burger).

Wine
Competing for top spot is our love of vino. We painstakingly sample an extensive list of regional wines and select a few of the finest for our chalets. This season’s favourites include an Amandieres Rosé and the La Guepe Merlot.
If you also have a passion for wine, there are several bars/restaurants offering sizable lists that incorporate the best of the French and Italian vineyards. Or be a connoisseur from the couch and create your own wine cellar from our comprehensive list.
For the ultimate vinophile evening (or anytime of day), one of the area’s top sommeliers and wine suppliers will put on a full wine tasting at your chalet, bringing you some of the year’s exciting new vintages alongside some long awaited ones.
Why not incorporate a wine tasting session with a gourmet BBQ on the sundeck of the chalet?
