 Poster: A snowHead
|
Off to VC at end of March and haven't been there for some time. Have a 13 and 14 year old so self catering but fancy a couple of evening meals out and tend to steer towards French food rather than Italian. Any recommendations? Would rather try to keep to Val C but no bother to catch the bus I guess. Couple of venues that stick out already are Aspen in Val Claret (salads look good and decent price) and Loop Bar in Le Lac (burgers). We'll be overnighting in Bourg on the way back so saving a (cheaper) pierrade for that.
One other thing - I love stinky cheese but don't know if you can ever get raclette for 1 person or whether it's always minimum of 2 (so I'd have to twist hubbie's arm whilst the kids sit there pinching their noses - or perhaps they could just wear FFP2 masks........). Thanks!!

@kettonskimum, loop better for lunch with kids, IMHO. It is a proper bar with happy hour and full of seasonnaires in the evening. Great burgers though

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

@kettonskimum, The best thread for your question is linked below, lots of people who frequent Tignes, some who live there post on this one - you will get decent recommendations there.
p.s. Agree with @holidayloverxx, Loop not the best "family" dinner place - everyone will be trollied !

@kettonskimum, A good suggestion from @GreenDay, put your question in the Tignes snow report thread.
Someone may be able to correct me but I didn't think that the Aspen was open in the evening. It's renowned for burgers and milkshakes. Generous portions too. A salad in there is kinda missing the point  .

There's quite a few resto's in Val C but it's a while since I was in any of them.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I would have said Le Dahu as it was brilliant a few years ago.
But I went there in December 2021 and it just was not the same.
I dont know if it changed hands or they were down on their knees after the long struggle of the Pandemic
