Europe's top 10 mountain restaurants

Europe's top 10 mountain restaurants
The best places to eat when on your European winter sports holidays this season

halet Refuge de Lognan, Les Grands Montets, Chamonix

You have to ski well off-piste to reach this hideaway with homemade cakes to die for and views of the Argèntiere glacier.

Chez Vrony, Zermatt

A gorgeous collection of rooms with chandeliers and fabulous food. This celebrity haunt is great for gawping at beautiful people.

L’Auberge de Vernant, Flaine

A glamorous girl in skintight skiwear drives you to this lakeside haven in a snowmobile.

Le Blanchot, Méribel

Serves up quite dreamy food. Signature dishes of the head chef, Christophe Perrin, include warm macaroon with foie gras served with prunes and Armagnac.

Chez Dany, Verbier

A small, cosy restaurant with delicious regional cooking. Order the steaming spaghetti or the soupe au potiron - pumpkin soup served inside a loaf of bread.

Chalet de Pierres, Courchevel

This is on the Verdons piste in Courchevel 1850. Wine is costly but the fine mountain food is not too pricey. The patisserie table is one of the biggest in the Alps.

L’edelweiss, Val d’Isère

This is probably Val’s top restaurant so book ahead. A roaring fire and excellent, affordable local dishes await you at the nosherie above Le Fornet.

La Marmite, St Moritz

This is a gourmet favourite. Stick to the tasting menu (including creamed venison soup) or go mad and have the astronomically expensive truffle menus. Sublime dining with spectacular views.

La Maison Vieille, Courmayeur

It offers superb homemade pastas, focaccias, pizzas and cakes. Quite delicious Italian fare.

Cabane du Mont-Fort, Verbier

You have to queue to order your food but the offerings are excellent and the views fantastic. The perfect place for a beer and platter of cheese and cold cuts.
