MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking

This restaurant is run by a young couple who are passionate about what they do: chef Flavio Ricco and Lola Goudenove. In the heart of the village it has a cosy dining area done out in the style of a lodge. The blend of wood and stone makes for a relaxing feel. The chef prepares traditional cuisine with a measure of creativity, highlighting local ingredients on a set menu (with options). This lunchtime, the chef demonstrated his finesse when revisiting soupe châtrée – a rather hearty Samoëns speciality made with bread, Tomme de Savoie cheese and onion soup, that was followed by a fillet of sea bass with celery and beurre blanc with Génépi. For dessert, there was candied apple, vanilla cream and vanilla ice cream. The welcome and service are charming: in fact, the chef comes out of his kitchen from time to time to serve his guests.
