In the heart of popular resorts or at the top of the slopes, an overview of new restaurants to try during the February holidays. With a view of infinity.


Renowned architects, plates that sing of the dolce vita or invite you on an Asian journey: in these places with their refined decoration, you come to dine with friends or take a break with a view between two tracks.

Paris Society's successful trattoria is settling in the heart of the village resort of Megève.

Dreamy mountain decor with carved wood, warm colors in green and red, thick fabrics embroidered with mountain motifs: the decor is planted and the menu always intended for families.

Italian cheese fondues, fillet of beef with Barolo but also Nutella pizzas and chocolate fondue at tea time with board games and a magician!

Cucùcina, an Italian air facing Mont Blanc

The Cucucina restaurant in Val d'Isère.

La Folie Douce Val d'Isère

For its new 100% Italian restaurant, La Folie Douce Val d'Isère invites chef Francesco Ibba.

On the menu of this Cucùcina (from the Italian “cucù”, crazy and “cucina”, kitchen)?

Carpaccio of gamberoni prawns awakened by a coral juice, vitello tonnato, gorgonzola risotto and pizzas fresh from the oven.

The one-of-a-kind room, with decor inspired by Italian Renaissance sculpture workshops, offers a breathtaking view of Mont Blanc.

Maya Altitude, Asian dream in Méribel

In Méribel, for lunch at the top, choose a temple of the sun with a 360° view of the Mont-Blanc massif and the Alps.

Her name ?

Maya Altitude, a 400-seat table with a Himalayan-inspired decor designed by the Hong Kong architect Sylvestre Murigneux, who was already behind the creation of the Refuge de la Traye.

In the kitchen, we find Christophe Dupuy (executive chef of the Monegasque group Maya Collection) who signs an Asian menu in collaboration with the starred chef Akrame Benallal.

To be tested: personalized cooking on the Charcoal grill over a wood fire or the traditional Tandoor oven.

Gigi, nobles oblige in Val d'Isère

Val d'Isere-Romain Ricard

After a house in Saint-Tropez then a residence in Paris, Gigi settled in an eagle's nest, at the Refuge de Solaise in Val d'Isère.

Perched at an altitude of 2551 meters, in the second highest hotel in Europe, the very chic Gigi has a living room and dining room.

A unique experience with a panoramic view whose alpine decoration combining noble fabrics, wood and stones is signed Hugo Toro.

On the plate?

Italian specialties that have proven themselves (Arancini with truffles, grilled octopus, sea bass carpaccio) but also novelties such as pancetta tartiflette or Parma ham and Beaufort lasagna.

Dad Pierre Baelen

New Italian setting for Megève bowling, in the former casino, which offers a colorful atmosphere of dolce vita.

Bright colors, soft lights and large wooden tables with comfortable benches: sit down at the bar for an aperitif around the three bowling alleys or in the restaurant, with friends or family to enjoy antipasti and Neapolitan pizzas.

Just a few steps away, you can also rush to discover the other addresses of the Annie Famose group in the resort: the Ferme Saint-Amour, the Chacha, the Café or even Kinugawa.

Charming winter chalet for this Parisian hot spot which is settling in the Airelles Val d'Isère hotel.

At the foot of the slopes, with an 800 square meter terrace all clad in wood, Loulou offers a sunny Italian menu signed by chef Benoit Dargère.

All schuss on the truffle pizza, tortellini with beef stew or veal cutlet alla Milanese au gratin with tomato and mozzarella, not to mention the dessert buffet.

An authentic and refined mountain residence for basking in the sun.
