Poster: A snowHead
|
Hey All
I'm going to Siviez nr Nendaz (it's one of the Verbier 4 vallees villages, but by road Verbier is about 50 miles away)
Can anyone suggest somewhere to eat on Christmas Evening - ideally in Siviez, but would do the 8km in the car down the mountain to Nendaz if needs must.
recommendations please
thanks

There are only 3 or 4 options in Siviez and I've only lunched at the place nearest the slope (which was adequate...).
In Nendaz there are a large number of options, depending on what you are after. Le Cabane is well rated by many people ( - although I had a bad experience there and so don't go there anymore). La Poya at Hotel Mont Fort was very nice when I last ate there and Hameau Les Clèves in the Les Clèves area (above the main town) is also great.
I've not eaten there, but the Mont-Rouge Restaurant is the slightly more expensive gastro option, if that’s what you're after.
Enjoy!

Les Etagne in Nendaz is usually very good, although I had one disappointment there last year, everybody else I know in Nendaz can't fault it - Gary have you been there?. Hameau Les Cleves looks very cool but haven't eaten there myself. There are a couple of restaurants between Nendaz and Siviez, with a little time I will find out the names.
Toko in Nendaz will collect/return you as in their minibus, well if you are staying in Nendaz itself, they probably would go to Siviez. Have you eaten there Gary? I have and it has always been good, always slightly effected by folk smoking, although you get that all over Switzerland - I think that smoking indoors has finally been banned in Switzerland too, over the Summer.
There looks to be very little in Siviez, a couple of pisteside type places, but I cant really comment too much as I have always just been throwing the gear in the car to go back to Nendaz.
My advice is book up soon, it will be very busy. They usually do a couple of sittings, at a fixed (some might say, high) price, but there defence is it's the busiest day of the year and they have to cash in.

No, not really. Nominally its a 300m climb, but it doesn't seem like that. It's not a motorway obviously! Usually all the traffic is going the same way. Just a tootle round watching out for the bus coming back the wrong way. The climb up from Sion is a bit of a 'James Bond road. Typical johnny foreigner overtaking in unfeasible places, but in general it is quite wide and always well cleared.

The road is very driveable during the day, although I have not done it at night...
