Ski Chardon Bleu : Catering

In all three of our fully catered Chalets we employ a qualified cook/chef to ensure that we serve top class food using, where possible, fresh local produce. With this in mind our cooks will discuss the proposed menus for the week with you and as far as is practicable will design dinner menus to suit your tastes. High Tea is also available for the young ones again choices/menus can be discussed, and served at a time to suit. Most allergies can be catered for with prior notice.

Morning:
Breakast is an important meal so start the day with Orange juice, cereal, porridge, yogurts, fresh fruit and freshly baked baguette ,which is delivered from the bakery daily, with a selection of jams, honey, marmalade and Nutella. Each day we offer a cooked Breakfast of the day, choose from eggs and bacon or other hot dishes (there is a different Hot Dish each Day). Of course there is Fresh coffee, tea or choose a fruit or herbal tea.
