 Poster: A snowHead
|
I have skied several times in Dolomites. This year am going for a long weekend at end Feb with my wife which coincides with a "significant" birthday. Have had many good lunches in the Dolomites over the years, but wondered which mountain hut the Snowheads experts would recommend for a proper blow out celebratory lunch. Doesn't matter where - just which would be most memorable lunch, combination of food, wine, view, ambience etc. Prefer to be up the hill rather than in town.
Thanks in advance...

Cant say that my choice is the best and it will depend on where you are at the time but if in Alta Badia I can recommend Bioch hut.
In Val gardena, Rifugio comici seems to be a popular haunt
Also Rifugio Scotoni in the hidden valley between San Cassiano and Cortina is another popular choice
In fact I think there was a thread on the best dolomite restaurants last year. Have a look back through the forum!!!

The a la carte dining room in the Piz Boe lounge above Corvara would be perfect. You could book a late lunch and gondola down so you can take full advantage of the fabulous cocktails and the beautiful wine list........amazing view!

Without question. The views are breathtaking, 80km to Swiss alps. The position is amazing.
Small, but perfect. Werner the owner is a diamond.

Good, but growing year on year and becoming a little 'commercial'.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Thanks All, lot's to consider there.
I recall one about two thirds of the way down La Longia that was good, on the left hand side as you look down. Does anyone know which that might be (I cannot recall)?

Wine at lunch while on skiing holiday - it does not compute. Sorry but the AI advisor has crashed . Please reload.

Wine at lunch on a ski holiday computes just fine. Have you tried switching yours off and back on again?

6 Brit blokes all around 50yo, having an amazing lunch at the Curona Hutte washed down with beers and Grappa, followed by a race down the James Bond run (La Longia) won't compute on any level.
It's a shed load of fun though.

If you’re in Alta badia you could head for a day trip to kronplatz there is the alpinn food space and restaurant it’s very new glass box job on a cliff set up by the guy who has three stars in San cassiano.
You have to book and for half term week we couldn’t get a table for 4. But plan a day to pop in for a drink on our day trip.
As far as regular hut. Col alt or alara get my vote and if you’re staying in corvara it’s just a short slide home if you get stuck in.
Equally we always have an evening in edelweiss in Colfosco get taken up and down the mountain and the food is brilliant Col parat do that too as do a number of others which is always fun
