Indulging into French food comes at  affordable prices and great value for money in Courchevel: from £28 euros menu offer at two Michelin star, to cosy restaurant near to Fahrenheit 7, all yum and child friendly – afterall this is France! Amidst best Courchevel restaurants from us and our friends :

*LA ROTISSERIE  – located at the ground floor of Fahrenheit 7, with splendid view on slopes, a sunny terrace with tables and chaise longue, DJ included! Aperols, mulled wine and champagne go well in here with pokes/ lobster rolls / sea bass ceviche/ linguini with pesto/ risotto with Lobster. For kids there is lasagna, burgers, fish and chips. The wines selection is beautiful and their poke bowls and seared tuna have been our favourite lunch on slopes, even with the high competition from La Casserole and La Fruitiere!.

*Le bistronomique Chabotte – traditional Savoyard dishes cleverly reinterpreted like “grandma used to cook”. Our friends had a nice a la carte dinner and opted for Chestnuts velvety black truffles and foie gras / lobster ravioli/ scallops reduction of orange with vanilla flavour and sole meuniere cereal risotto. Their son loved their pata negra and cheese plate as well as pasta Bolognese.

*La table de Marie – located just next door to Fahrenheit 7: the 5 years old enjoyed “the best pizza ever”; the grown ups loved the snails and traditional onion soup. This is also an easy option for overtired kids after so much skiing; they also arrange take aways : pizzas, salads and crepes to your room/ suite/ chalet. 

*AZIMUT – 1 Michelin star, located in Courchevel 1550, aka La Praz. The adults opted for fois gras escalope / turbot with chow flower mousse and the traditional tartiflette ( lunch and dinner set menus from 55 euros to 95 euros). Lovely attitude to kids and 12 euros delicious menu.

Lunching and wining on the slopes. Our votes go for La Casserole and La Fruitiere.

Tartiflettes, steaks, fondus, foie gras and some more cheese – yum! And lots of wine and aperol!

The dining options at Fahrenheit 7 are exquisite: we dined twice, some outstanding tartare and truffled dishes.

Another glorious dining option next door is La Portetta, Angela Hartnett’s child that we got to know and love from Murano in London and its casual sibbling on St James street.

And after all that glorious food, one may be be ready for apres-skiing! Some brilliant options,  we have attended regularly to La Folie Meribel Courchevel and we even brought the 5 years old who fell in love instantly! Some high standards now to live up to!

Fahrenheit 7 bars are also cool and atmospheric with the 2 fireplaces, plush pillows and rugs. The staff uniform is part of the story and charm and staff themselves have been delightful with our cheeky monkeys, even when running around.

For more bars: Rok was brilliant as well as La portetta next door to Fahrenheit 7.

ESF Kids ski schools Courchevel

Our 5 years old spent 5 mornings with ESF ski school Courchevel 1650 – he loved it, with Friday, the awards day being of course his highlight.

3. Fahrenheit’s 7 sleek new suites. We spent 5 fabulous nights in their just refurbished designery vintage suites. We found them impeccable for spending grown up time as kids have their own room, spacey enough to invite our friends over for playdates and catching up over bottles of wine.

4. Ski holidays Courchevel 1650 are brilliant for skiing and options. We’d spend the mornings chilld free on redruns: Bel Air and towards Meribel on Monvallon and its stunning glacier.

For families and kids there’s lots of options in terms of Greens and Blues and once we figured that out, our 5 years old skied with us in the afternoon.
