Chalet Dulcis Casu

A luxury catered chalet holiday should revolve around three things (aside from amazing skiing!) – gorgeous chalets, slick service and food with the wow factor.

In each of our catered chalets we have a qualified chef who has trained in fine dining and will be on hand 5 days during your stay to cook your meals. Our chef team comes from some of the hottest restaurants around, including many with Michelin stars!

You can expect a hearty, healthy breakfast, indulge in a slice of tasty homemade cake in the afternoon, and sit down to a delicious and imaginative four-course meal served alongside wines from our carefully selected list.

Catered chalet dining

The luxury of a catered chalet is that you’ll have five of your evening meals included within the price of your chalet, meaning that no-one needs to shop, scrub the kitchen or spend time slaving over a hot stove.

On five evenings during your week our chefs will create a menu to rival most of the local restaurants, showing off their culinary imagination with canapes, starter, main course, cheese and dessert.

You’ll also have two evenings free to dine in the local restaurants.

Special diets

Our talented team are happy to tailor their menus to suit special diets, please just let us know your preferences in advance! There’s no extra supplement for dietary requirements such as vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free etc…

Sample evening menu

Sample Menu 1

• Egg yolk ravioli, smoked haddock chowder, leeks, truffle and chives
• Roast fillet of turbot, courgette purée, Romanesque sauce, black olives and mussel foam
• Poached pineapple, coconut sorbet, coffee cream, caramel bavois, lime syrup and Malibu jelly
• Tomme de Savoie, spicy tomato chutney, chocolate-orange fudge squares and a glass of port
• Bistro & family dining…

As eating trends change we understand that some of our guests may look for lighter meals and less fine dining evenings in their chalets on occasion.

Our chefs have a wealth of experience and can adapt their menus to suit all our guests needs. Why not mix up your week with bistro style menus on some evenings and family meal dinners where the menu is suited to the whole family.

Please talk to our pre concierge team prior to arrival to discuss your bespoke dining requirements.

Handpicked wines

It’s a serious business, choosing wine for our chalet guests! We use a specialist supplier called Verre Gourmand who host regular tastings so that we can choose interesting and delicious wines to complement our chef’s creations and make sure that our team are well trained in how to serve our wines.

Wine Selection

House wines: you’ll have your pick of sparkling wine, whites and reds to help yourselves to during your stay. This is alongside the bottled beers and soft drinks that are readily available in the complimentary bar.

Dinner wines: Each day, your host will serve the paired wines that the chef and sommelier have chosen to accompany the dishes on the menu. They’ll include bottles from all over France as well as other famous areas in Europe and the New World.

Children

Simpler children’s early meals can be provided – just let us know in advance of your holiday, we’ll ask you a few favourites and create nutritious menus for your little ones. If you are one family and would prefer to all eat together, just let us know in advance.

Breakfasts

If you enjoy a cooked breakfast (and what better excuse than on a ski holiday?) then your chef will cook your request to order on 5 mornings during your stay.

Each morning your chalet team will also provide a continental spread of flaky, buttery croissants, crusty baguettes, cereals, fruit juices, a selection of fruit and yoghurts, Nespresso coffees, one of our range of quality teas or a classic builder’s brew!

Sample evening menu

Sample Menu 2

• Roast hand dived scallop, buttered celeriac purée, chilli, spring onion and soy sauce
• Whole roast loin of pork, morteau sausage, king cabbage, Granny Smith apple, butternut squash purée and morteau sausage gravy
• Dark chocolate parfait, mandarin sorbet, chocolate crumb, pistachio puree, mandarin segments and chocolate sauce
• Beaufort cheese, cherry and red onion chutney, Montélimar nougat petit fours

Afternoon tea

Afternoon tea: It’s a ski chalet tradition and no holiday would be complete without it!

When you arrive back to the chalet in the afternoon, you’ll find a homemade daily cake provided for you and your group. Help yourselves to a slice with a tea or coffee!

Got a special occasion during your ski week? Ask us about birthday cakes, anniversary meals, particular wines or champagne if you’d like to celebrate – or maybe even pop the question! We’ll be happy to help.
