Saint-Gervais-les-Bains
Food scene
Set in a beautiful old chalet you will always get a warm welcome from Sylvie and Serge. The restaurant has a large selection cooked mainly on an indoor BBQ style grill but also has some traditional Savoyarde fayre such as Raclette. If you’re feeling brave try the ‘grole’ after dessert… an ornate carved bowl with
multiple spouts containing black coffee with citrus fruits and some strong liquor!

The sister restaurant to the Michelin starred Le Serac across the road. This bistro has a small but high quality daily menu. Booking advised as it is relatively small and very popular. If steak is your thing it’s worth a trip! It adjoins the deli so you get to go to the counter to choose from one of the many delicious desserts.
