A continually evolving process
Gourmet Restaurant Les Menuires, Savoie
A Carte Blanche menu of surprises and emotions
The mountains, the terroir: the identity of our cuisine
At La Bouitte Gourmet Restaurant near Les Menuires ski resort, the Carte Blanche menus open the door to the aromatic intensity of the season, the potential of the day's produce, and the sensitivity and creativity of our chefs.
A Carte Blanche menu to amaze, surprise and enthuse.
As desire takes shape, all you need do is explore the itinerary with your senses finely-tuned.
You decide on the number of surprise dishes and your culinary preferences, and we will create a menu tailored to you.
Like a haute couture designer, dish by dish we craft unique pieces, as ephemeral as the day is long.
Let yourself be guided along the gastronomic peaks and appreciate the extreme subtlety of a finely crafted signature. It is the perfect way to let go and immerse yourself in the much-loved Savoie of René and Maxime Meilleur.
Choose from a 4-course, 5-course or 8-course Carte Blanche menu. Each menu is a one-off creation. A food and wine pairing can be added to the menu of your choice.
Savoie in flavours
With a choice of starters, fish and meat dishes, cheeses and desserts, as well as new creations inspired by the day's market stall produce, the menu at La Bouitte Gourmet Restaurant, just a stone's throw from Les Menuires and Val Thorens, brings Savoie to life.
Depending on the season, the cuisine takes on different hues, making a detour to the mountain peaks where aromatic herbs and wild plants grow, ricocheting down mountain rivers and lakes for miraculous fishing, and stopping off at neighbouring farms before wending its way through forest and woodland.
Like a constantly renewed voyage of initiation, Savoie à la carte is an alpine hike, with each step offering up its own unique flavour, and in which the journey is as important as the destination.
