À Tignes le Lac, Avenue du Rosset is about to welcome a new address designed by the Bouvier family. With Le Drôle d'Endroitthe resort's famous star-studded culinary dynasty is further enriching its gourmet universe.
Housed in the former garages of the Direction départementale de l'Équipement (DDE), the brasserie pays homage to its past, right down to its initials.
Behind its huge preserved doors and 4.20 metre ceilings, the industrial ambience is combined with a deliberately popular and generous menu.
From breakfast to dinner (continuous service from 7am to 10pm), the restaurant offers brasserie-style cuisine punctuated by comfort dishes such as blanquette de veau, hachis parmentier and œufs mimosa.
Affordable prices
"Prices must remain accessible insists Clément Bouvier, a Michelin-starred chef committed to democratising gastronomy in Tignes. Starters start from €8, main courses from €13.50 and desserts from €4.
With a surface area of 250 m², the place is set to become a meeting point from morning to night, open to all, residents and visitors alike. A large 'ski-in/ski-out' terrace completes the experience, offering a direct, unobstructed view of Lac de Tignes.
It is due to open in mid-November, in time to kick-start the winter season.
