The French Alps

Fusion restaurants in The French Alps

  1. A

    Contresens

    The menu reads like a mathematical formula but it soon becomes clear: starters are A, mains B, sides C and desserts D. The food is as experimental as the menu – sun-dried tomato, Beaufort cheese and rocket salad burger, mussel ravioli, 'deconstructed' Snickers – and totally divine. Kid nirvana.

  2. B

    Munchie

    The style of this trendy Swedish-run hangout is pan-Asian fusion: sashimi, sushi, tempura and Malaysian yellow curries are authentic and creatively presented. Sittings go faster than musical chairs, so it's worth a try even if you haven't booked.

  3. Les Écuries du Pré Carré

    In the same charming courtyard, the Stables ooze theatre. Cuisine is imaginative, as is the décor - a mix of wood, '70s retro and glasses that don't match. Upstairs, La Suite - billowing white cloth, leather armchairs and pink lighting - is evening only; last orders are at midnight.

    No Escape

    Antipasti, tapas and only the gourmet best - ravioli à la truffe (black truffle), king prawns, scallops etc - make the menu at this minimalist lounge-bar a change from the norm.

    Le Dix Vins

    Pink, black and graced with floral motifs, this diva of a restaurant flaunts a menu as creative as its decor. Try the Dauphiné ravioli filled with gambas (a kind of shrimp) and coriander or the palate-cleansing strawberry and mint soup. There's a €7 kids' menu.
