This is where we excel. Food is 1 of the 3 key SnowChateaux ingredients towards a contented guest, along with Chalet (Location and Quality) and Service (before and during your stay with us).

Prior to your first evening meal, it's canapes and welcome drinks around a roaring log fire to toast the start of what is probably the best week of your year.

Each morning you will awake to the smell of fresh bread, croissant and pain au chocolat baking in the oven. A home from home with British imported bacon*** and local eggs. Breakfast is an informal, nourishing and copious affair with fresh bread, preserves, yoghurt, fruit juice, cereal and fruit.

At Afternoon Tea a sumptuous spread of freshly baked cake and biscuits, local breads and jams with tea and coffee (juices for the kids) will await you on your return from the slopes.

Before Dinner relax in the sauna or one of the chalets lounges, before savoring a fine 3 course meal with personally selected wines to complement each main course. Followed by Cheesboard** on 2 nights. To finish pick yourself up with a fresh coffee and chocolates. (We are happy to cater for vegetarian, vegans, allergies, intolerances or dislikes - please notify us at the time of booking)

Our accompanying wines are personally selected from multiple suppliers, and depending on the dish of the day they may range from "vin du pays" through to "Appellation d'Origine Controlee". Soft drinks, juices and water are also readily available.

The hosts take one day off during the week when you can take advantage of local restaurants. We will offer a selection and help get them booked up.

Christmas and New Year weeks see the chalets sparkle with Christmas tree, lights and decorations. It's also our Christmas and New Year so it's great to make it a special time for everyone. Christmas Dinner is a grand affair and our New Years cocktails are all the rage!

Special occasions and Birthdays are catered for, be it a birthday cake, champagne toast or entertainment.

Packed Lunches are available on request at reasonable prices depending on the chalet (please enquire before arrival) but if you prefer to eat on the mountain there are nearly limitless options across both Les Arcs and La Plagne. We will let you know about those special mountain eateries.

Children are happily catered for. "Little people" can either eat with, or earlier than, those older folk. Home made, well balanced, tasty and nutritious meals is the order of the day. Let us know what cuisine suits most palates (children and adults alike) and we'll do our utmost to please.
