Skiing at 2,300 metres burns thousands of calories, and luckily, Val Thorens is a world-class culinary capital in the clouds. In Episode 4 of Transfer to Alps, hosts Liam and Chloe take a mouth-watering tour through the finest restaurants, slopeside chalets, and traditional cheese houses in Europe's highest resort.
Forget bland cafeteria food. Val Thorens punches well above its weight when it comes to mountain dining. We evaluate twenty distinct eateries across every budget tier, from Michelin-starred tasting menus to hidden bakeries. Discover the expedition-themed fine dining at Les Explorateurs (1 Michelin star), black truffle dishes at Le Diamant Noir, and master-crafted cheese fondues at La Laiterie.
Out on the slopes, we explore the legendary seafood and dessert buffets at Chalet de la Marine (2,500m) and the sustainable permaculture farm dishes at Chez Pépé Nicolas. We also break down the ultimate village cheese temples for raclette and tartiflette, reveal where to grab melted cheese baguettes from Le Fondue Food Truck, and locate the best artisanal bakeries for an affordable lunch on the go.
