Le Cocon des Neiges

It is a good place to have lunch, breaking from ski, especially on a nice, sunny day. Oddly enough (or maybe not) you are told you can eat only if you sit at certain tables on the terrace, not at any table. We had to talk to several members of staff in order to get someone to serve us. E ventually. Then again, typical for France ski resorts. Ok pizza, better than the average local pizza, where they abuse ketchup instead pizza sauce. The steak was rather rare not medium, but okish. The place has deffinetely more potential, but, right now, it gave me the feeling of the poorer relative of the more upscale and more popular places you can find on the slopes.

Good quality food and bev and good service. Seems to have picked up its game a lot from pre-COVID when some more scathing reviews were written. The back terrace where I ate lunch is a large perspex greenhouse type enclosure which was fantastic on a cold day. I assumed that this 'cocoon ' was the provenance of the name Cocon but in fact it is named after Cocon, Napoleon 's horse that liked eating coconuts, the one he adopted while on a gap year in Zanzibar. Cocon is 'coconut ' in Corsican.

We had dinner and everyone was thrilled about the food. Ingredients and cooking technique were amazing. The duck tartare and the prawns were a dream, so it was the maigret de canard and desserts. Prices a bit on the high side, but definitely worth it. Location is a bit of the way. Decoration is a disaster, surely to be redone ASAP, in fact it looks like a cheap place out of 1970s. Quite depressing, plus we had a loud group of old people who kept singing mountain songs the whole evening.

Nice classic and well done food with a caring chef in a strange place with a bowling atmosphere (including violet light) which serves pizza, Savoie classics and gastro food. Difficult to reconcile all this. Staff was helpful.

The food was ok, but a little bit expensive. The service was TERRIBLE, spoke little English and didnt care about us
