Residence Hameau du Glacier Restaurant. They have a specialty in grilled chicken and is definitely worth a shot. There are many small café restaurants which are the best when you are looking for an Apline amazing breakfast.
Arc 2000
This is a very
beautiful resort to spend your holidays especially for the excellent food. Pre

and classical exterior. It is a self-service restaurant but the efforts you
make are worth the results. The other famous restaurants include those at Residence les
Lanchettes which is a traditional cuisine and is well known for Mountain

and probably the best place for evening snacks. Try to visit as many
restaurants you can because you will find something new in each one.
Bourg St Maurice
This town is the hub of restaurants. From finding the best traditional local dishes or the most heavily fondue, you can easily find all that here. La Table des Lys serves authentic French cuisine and I would highly recommend you visit. You’ll find a lot of street food in La Grande Rue which is good enough to make you lick your lips and your fingers! There are plenty of restaurants to explore and there’s always something for everyone.
If you get a chance stay in Borg Saint Bourg and Les Arcs, forget the diet and eat as much as you can, because you might not come across this banquet of fine French cuisine again.
