Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Sauze D'oulx Christmas 2013!!!

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Hi headers, me and my boyfriend just booked up Sauze for Christmas and was wondering if anybody had any recommendations what to do for christmas dinner? We'd obviously like to go out for dinner somewhere nice and wondered if in your experience any of the restaurants/hotels do a good christmas dinner and whether its best to book up before we go or just wing it when we get there??
Cheers for your help!

Was there last year, though in a catered chalet so didn't have to go looking for Christmas dinner. There are some very nice places to eat in the old town. You might not get a traditional English style dinner but you will get good food.

Thank you, we don't want a Turkey dinner and Xmas pud!! Just perhaps a nice Italian place that would do a few courses etc, perhaps a bit more of an event type thing! I'm sure we'll find something good - I may email a few places from trip adviser or something...
adithorp - were there many Xmas based events going on throughout the week??

Italians tend not to bother with Christmas day, they focus on Christmas Eve and Boxing day.

Try ristorante l' ortiche - I don't know how to gennerate the little dash above an e but it's the one on Via Assietta. Book as soon as you arrive as it's always busy.

The Ciao Pais is a good traditional restaurant, but you would need to get a snow mobile up to it in the evening. If you want a long leisurely lunch this is the place to stop. The Old Inn is also a very nice traditional place just above the bottom of the Clotes lift.

To be honest I didn't really take much notice... I kind of like getting away from all the x-mas crap at home.

La Barrica in Oulx ... down the mountain a bit ... if it's open.
It's run by a lovely French Canadian lady.
So far, the best food I have had in the area ... they also have a massive cellar stocked with fabulous wine.

Definitely! fantastic food there... and the wine!

Ciao Pais is good excellent on the right day, but they have been known to take the mickey by charging for a carafe of tap water. They'll love you if you have a big wallet. If you're only going in for a minestrone and a glass of water, don't expect a smile.

Also try the Chalmettes, way over to the left as you ski down to SanSicarrio. A fantastic place. Off slope 79bis if I remember correctly.

I think the other was a Southern Europe one so was for Southern Italy which I guess Sauze isn't!
