Let it snow @ the rooftop Alpine Lodge
Fed up with the Xmas spirits, the enless chase of the perfect gift, the false beards on Santas? Would much prefer to press fast forward to your ski holidays?
Well, I have the perfect break for you – climb up to the Rooftop Alpine Lodge. Chalet atmosphere, very cosy, wooden decoration, fur on the stools, bowl of nuts with a nutcracker on the side, open fire, logs… have a look outside – the mini-terrasse is covered in snow, the trees are silvered and there’s even a mini helicopter.
You forget everything instantly. Take your shoes off, indulge with a pair of thick socks – plenty available for free when you come in.
Order a mulled wine – peppery, lots of orange notes, the best I have had in years. But be warned: you’ll feel so comfy, hypnotised by the dancing flames of the fire that there are high chances you will either spend the whole afternoon there if not fall asleep!
Mulled wine is at £4 – other cocktails (including some caramel vodka) are available. Or order some charcuterie, tartiflette, fondue to share (for £2, count £18/£20/£20).

Les filles, il ne reste plus qu’a refaire toute votre deco et d’ouvrir un bar underground pop-up…

Encore un de tes bons plans que j’ai testé en amoureux, un grand merci! Un peu dur à trouver, mais cela valait le coup! La tartiflette est un délice…Et pour info, ils ne ferment pas fin février mais prolongent du fait du succès!
