Private Chef in Arâches & Les Carroz

French gastronomy in your chalet, in the heart of the Grand Massif

Enjoy your ski holiday in Arâches-la-Frasse and Les Carroz without the chore of cooking. I settle into your chalet and create gourmet dinners after skiing: homemade foie gras, beef Wellington, lobster, and the best of Savoyard produce.

Ski holidays in the Grand Massif: relax, I'll cook

Arâches-la-Frasse and Les Carroz d'Arâches open the doors to the Grand Massif, one of the largest linked ski areas in France (Flaine, Samoëns, Morillon, Sixt). Between the slopes, the crisp air and the Haute-Savoie scenery, who wants to cook in the evening?

After a day on the slopes, going out for dinner often feels like an ordeal: snowy roads, fully-booked restaurants, tired children. That's where a chalet chef comes in: you come back from the slopes and a gourmet dinner is waiting for you by the fire.

As a French chef, I come to your chalet in Arâches, Les Carroz and across the Grand Massif to turn your stay into a complete gastronomic experience, from the caviar aperitif to dessert. Your rental becomes a fully catered chalet, with menus written for your group alone.

Why a chalet chef in the Grand Massif?

The constraints you may know all too well...

01

Roads & snow

Getting back in the car at night on snowy mountain roads after a day of skiing is no fun, especially with children.

02

Fully-booked restaurants

During school holidays, the good tables in Les Carroz, Flaine or Samoëns are full. Without a reservation, finding a table is hard.

03

After-ski fatigue

After the fresh air and the effort, you just want to settle into the chalet, not head out again. A dinner served on the spot changes everything.

Your typical day at the chalet

You enjoy the skiing and the mountains; I take care of the meals. Here's what a day with a chalet chef in the Grand Massif looks like:
