Grands Montets Top Buvette
Chamonix
If you venture up to the very tippy-top of the Grands Montets ski area you'll be at a dizzy 3300m. And before you head off on that descent over the glacial terrain, there's nothing like a stop 'Chez Karim' for a cup of tea or something stronger.
The top Grands Montets cable car whisks you up in minutes and coming down the internal steps you arrive on a decked area, with the buvette. Inside there's always a warm welcome and Karim has all the drinks and snacks you need.
Recommended are the legendary 'croutes' which is an oven-baked dish of potatoes, melted cheese and ham that'll keep you going all day.
On the last day of Grands Montets there's always a bit of a gathering on the terrace and for the Freeride Day (the official party day) it's THE place to be seen!
