 Poster: A snowHead
|
Well we had a very pleasant evening on Wednesday in "Alan Peru".
They must be thanked for diluting the omnipresent traditional Savoyard choices elsewhere by giving you an an inventive and eclectic choice from a fusion menu ranging through Thai, Lebanese and modern European. Not a tartiflette to be seen, mercifully.
I started with a delightful pumpkin and sweet potato soup with hints of coconut and lime and rounded off with a delicious and very well produced "Crying Tiger" salad (that's a beef if you didn't know). Sophie had an excellent selection of mezzes. Only Nick felt hungry enough to have a pudding and a very satisfying (for him anyway) creme brulee (flavoured IIRC with cinnamon and lime). House red very drinkable and reasonably priced.
Service was charming, completely fluent in French and English although I suspect of Scandinavian origin.
Hopefully they'll maintain these high standards in the heights of the season and be an excellent addition to that neck of the Chamonix woods in between rue Dr Piccard and the Aiguille du Midi cable (and only a 5 minute walk from our fine apartments).
Good luck to them.

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

Ooooh, could be tempted to Chamonix yet. The above sounds just perfect. DM, was it reasonable value ?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Frosty the Snowman, I think (checks wallet) €110 for four. Not bad really. Two bottle of wine between 3, 2 pints of strong continental lager, 4 main courses, one starter, on dessert and two plates of chunky chips to start off with.

Bode Swiller, never miss an opportunity (as long as it's in good taste). (Sorry, that sounds like it fell out of a Xmas cracker)
