La Laiterie Restaurant

A smart little restaurant with a good choice of fondue flavours

Location
Val Thorens

Truffle fondue with champagne, anyone? You can choose from a few different flavours of fondue in this restaurant, each of which harks back to a different region.

All cheeses on the menu are selected by the master cheesemaker Frederic Royer, of the Boujon cheese shop, and all wines are carefully selected by sommelier Franck Bernet. This talented duo chooses both cheese and wine from the same region for each recipe on offer on the menu. There is also the opportunity to taste the cheese and wine before they go into the fondue for those with a refined palette. With a really modern 'laiterie' themed interior, it's a lovely restaurant to spend the evening and to taste some great French produce.

Each fondue combines two cheeses from one particular region,. A young, well-balanced cheese is picked notably for its soft, supple texture and another cheese matured over a longer period chosen for its rich aromas and fuller flavour. The combination of the two creates a fondue that is creamy in texture with a unique flavourful taste. And to make it thoroughly regional, the third and final ingredient, the wine is also produced in the same region!

Once you have made your choice, you can taste the two different cheeses and the wine before they are melted together. A unique culinary experience to discover the cheeses' initial aromas plus the flavours created by the magic of cooking. The choice is yours.

You'll find them at the Altapura five star Hotel.
