PLEASE NOTE: Any bookings for season 2019/20 catering will only be provided 6 days.

For six days of the week our chalet staff, some of whom may live in the chalet, prepare all your meals, as described here. On the chalet hosts’ day off, they will leave out a simple breakfast for you, and that evening you and your family have the chance to eat out in one of the local cafés or restaurants. The majority of our guests feel that children under 13 years can inhibit the dinner-party atmosphere at evening meals, especially if they are over-tired, so our younger guests are served high tea at about 5.30pm. We do not then allow anyone under 13 at the adult evening meals in chalets, except in our two ‘Family Dining’ chalets. Breakfast - A good breakfast is essential on a ski holiday, so we provide a choice of cereals or porridge, fruit juices, plentiful tea and coffee, local bread (and croissants or ‘pains au chocolat’ in France), cold meats, cheeses and preserves, and boiled eggs. This is normally presented buffet-style for you to help yourself.
Afternoon tea - The traditional ‘welcome home’ after a day on the slopes will be laid out for you by your chalet host, ready for your return. A good cup of tea or coffee is the perfect accompaniment to a delicious slice of freshly home-baked cake. Children’s High Tea Served at around 5.30pm and supervised by our staff, high tea provides children under 13 with a healthy menu, but tailored more towards children’s tastes than our main adult dinner. Puréed food is available for infants on request. Chalets serve a fixed ‘menu of the day’, and parents are asked to accompany children under 36 months, whilst children 3-12 years will be supervised by Esprit staff. Children under 13 are not allowed to join the adult-only dinner
Adult Dinner - Our four-course chalet dinners start with canapés and an apéritif, followed by an appetiser, main course and dessert, accompanied by a choice of wines, and followed by coffee with mints or chocolates. Special Diets and Family Dining Special Diets: Vegetarian options are always available if you advise us in advance, and other special diets can generally be catered for at a cost of £35 per person per week. and please advise us at the time of booking. Family Dining Chalets: For those who want to eat with their younger children, we offer two chalets with our Family Dining concept - the Valentine in La Rosière and the Oskar in Selva. Everyone in these chalets eats together in the evening, starting at 6.30-7.00pm. The meals are based on our adult menus with some flexibility for younger taste buds, although not a complete ‘à la carte’ choice! You can also choose our Family Dining option if you wish in any chalet of up to 10 beds, if you book the whole chalet for your own party, subject to chalet suitability. The additional charge for changing meals to Family Dining is £39 per child.
