Food and Drink
This season we are offering 3 options as we try to get a good work life balance for us. Please call to discuss if this isnt clear.
Fully Catered in peak weeks - 6 cooked breakfasts and 6 evening meals - New Year, Half Term and Easter.
Catered - 5 cooked breakfasts and 5 evening meals - we can reduce evening meals if you prefer more opportunity to eat out. Non catered breakfasts will be in the Ground floor Kitchen/dining.
Self Catering - in the ground floor apartment.
So for catered - We both enjoy good food and take pleasure out of producing a menu that is well presented, varied and uses lots of fresh ingredients.
We believed that after a day on the slopes you need tasty food with reasonable size portions. Much of the menu is based on good farmhouse cooking (Suzanne's background) with more modern ingredients and French cuisine enhancing it.
One of the highlights of the week is our Savoyard evening with local dishes of Tartiflette served with a variety of good local Savoyard Wines (e.g. Apremont, Chinin Bergeron, Gamay etc).
Breakfast Selection
Fresh orange juice, selection of cereals, fresh fruit bowl, yogurts, porridge, freshly baked baguette with local confitures.
Daily selection of cooked breakfast (e.g. bacon and eggs, smoked salmon and scrambled eggs) or fresh croissant and pain au chocolate
Pots of filter coffee and english breakfast tea.
Tea - First one home puts on the kettle for Tea and a slice of Suzane's homemade cakes (Lemon Drizzle, Millionaires Shortbread, Apple Crumble Cake).
Dinner is a special part of the day - a well prepared Three course meal accompanied by good quality French White and Red wine selected by Mark based on our travels through France.
