Ideally located on the southern mountainside overlooking the Mont Blanc mountain range, Denis Carrier’s 500 sq. m. vegetable garden was created over 20 years go.

Worked according to the lunar calendar, the garden’s earth is tilled every year in May and enriched with horse manure and lime according to a tradition first described over 200 years ago, in a book dedicated to the first ascent of the Mont Blanc.

Denis Carrier’s garden was rewarded at the Chamonix valley competition.

Delicately mixing traditional cooking with fruit, vegetable and herbs from his own garden, Denis Carrier runs from the restaurant’s vegetable garden to the kitchens to present you with delicious, creative recipes rich with balanced flavors.
His delicious cuisine changes with the seasons.
In April, borage flowers, salads, chives, chervil and arugula...
Then, in summer, broccoli, purslane, basil, turnips, horseradish, cabbage...
And finally, in autumn and winter, cardoons, Jerusalem artichokes, kohlrabi, leeks, red carrots, apples and pears will charm your palate.

For lovers of scents and flavors, the vegetable garden is open to visitors, enabling guests to take a peek at the flavors that will fill their plates!

The Mont Blanc Massif is one of the must beautiful present witch our planet offer us.

In this valley where we can leave, work and enjoy, the show is already incredible. This is nicer to go up but not as wonderful as it could be if you can get in this magic mountain.

Lot of people wish leaving in this area.

We have to try to leaving in harmony with the nature.

Our restaurant is closed Monday lunch, Tuesday lunch and Wednesday lunch.
