Food: The Ski Power catering experience
Our catering is one of the areas where we really go to town. All of our guests, whatever the grade of chalet, receive the same high quality food. This really is mouth watering stuff and sometimes forms the discussion point of the day on the pistes.
Below is an example from the 2008/09 year of our menu. The menu does change every year so please don't expect it to be exactly the same as this but it does give you a taste. Our chefs are also creative in the kitchen and so often put their own personal touches to dishes. Whilst we do insist they keep to a basic format and menu plan we also actively encourage some creativeness in presentation, after all what you see is a great part of the culinary experience.
