Summary: Nestled among larches and pines, a blue ski run leads to a local stone building enhanced with blond woods.
In the discreet valley of Le Fornet, René occupies the lower level of the Edelweiss restaurant, a place beloved by locals for over twenty years. Founded by a native of Val-d'Isère who named it after his grandfather, an exceptional skier with a taste for the good life, René exudes a warm, friendly ambiance. The restaurant's open kitchen boasts a prominent Mibrasa oven, where the precision cooking of meats and fish takes center stage, complemented by a lively succession of opened wine bottles. While the main courses embody a robust and well-executed philosophy, the starters and desserts could benefit from a similar focus to maintain the vigor throughout the dining experience.
