 Poster: A snowHead

Based in Bourg St Maurice, they do meal packages for self caterers.
Has anyone experience of their food? Of their service?

Yes, used them on our last trip to Tignes (nearly 2 years ago now:0(
Great food in easily cooked servings. They used to do the Cook range but since Brexit only do local equivalent. We had a mixture of both and the non Cook stuff was of a similar quality to Cook. Delivery was slick and punctual. It’s not cheap but if you ordered a week of ready meals from Waitrose or M&S (which is the standard they are) then that wouldn’t be cheap either.
I’ll be using them again this winter.

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

Used them twice, in Tignes and Montriond. The meals were tasty and super easy after a long day, although it was also the Cook meals. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

They dropped off a massive chocolate cake for free to our office in Chamonix a few years ago to try and get into our chalets. They didn't but they still get a thumbs up from me for their generous attempt at ingratiation  Cake was delicious too!

Question: if I order a week's worth of meals, do I need to keep them frozen or will fridge temperature be fine?

The meals we got were all best from frozen, I think they do drops into most resorts twice per week, but not sure how convenient this would be for you. We've never had a full weeks worth of food from them, but did have meals for three nights for a party of 6 adults and far too many treats/cakes for our week in Montriond, which did take up a fair amount of room in the freezer. You might get away with a few days in the fridge and adjusting cooking times to suit, but you may want to check with them. In Tignes we got a delivery mid week, there was a time slot for delivery, but we asked if they could contact us when they were close to resort, which they did, super helpful and friendly service. We lapped the Palafour until they contacted us and they were at the apartment about 15 mins later. I appreciate though that this approach might not suit every person/resort/apartment. Agree the cakes were good, a bit too good  .
