 Poster: A snowHead

We would like to try various different things - pasta, gnocchi, pizza, meat etc. for lunch on the slopes (not a 2 hr sit down dinner!). Any recommendations in Cervinia?

Chalet Etoile, but stay in the bar area - try their Pasta Etoile (well, really suggest you try the restaurant too, but that would be a proper sit down affair).
Lino's above the ice rink in town is fine for pizza.
Otherwise I'm out. Memorable lunches I've had in Cervinia tend to be more of the sit down, 2hrs type. Mind you, that's usually because it's blowing a gale and I don't want to go outside

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I went to Cervinia in 2018 with a group of 6 and frequently lunched in a restaurant at the top of the plan maison cable car, I think it was called Tuktu. It was the larger of the two restaurants there that are not part of the cable car building. This was convenient for us as one of our party was doing ski school and would be brought back there at lunch time after his lessons. For that reason we didn't try too many other restaurants. The food was always good, especially the pizzas and plentiful selection of pasta, just as you would expect in Italy. The service was good and prices reasonable. They also gave 10% off on production of a crystal discount card.
We did have a bad lunch experience at the bottom of Valtournenche where all we could find was a toasted sandwich that tasted like plastic and bottles of power-aid to drink. This was at the bottom of the Valtournenche Gondola however there may have been more places to eat in the town.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Chalet Etoile, in the restaurant. Slow down, take your time. Get on the first lift and the last, but have a good lunch. Bontadini, is also excellent -at the top of 2 chairs up from Chalet Etoile on piste6 I believe. We would ski over from Zermatt for either of these two and not suffer any drop in food quality from the best over there, that’s how good they are.

We love the Igloo restuaurant on piste 7 - which is also a really good piste. Really friendly and great food. But I agree with the others that Chalet Etoile is great too.

The Ventina - very Italian, great food and reasonable prices. It’s in a lovely sunny position at the junction of piste 35 and 36. We always stop for a bombardino (Italian egg-nog - trust me, tasted better than it sounds) when over from Zermatt. Avoid the toilets however ...........
