I must preface this review as being from an American. Most ski areas have on-mountain dining that…read moreis all owned by the resort. Here, the restaurants are independent. I believe the need to compete drives the quality high.
The view is stupendous. We visited on a sunny day and like 90% of the patrons were outside on the deck. I had a chicken kabob and my wife had a vegetable/salad plate. Each a glass of wine. Food was good, not amazing, but the ambiance is what made the experience exceptional. Even inside, they cook some of the food over an open fire. Love the wood.
We made a reservation to insure a spot and needed directions. I asked at a nearby chalet and it turns out the owner of that chalet was the husband of the owner of La Soucoupe, he said, "its my wife". And she was; charming and came around to check on us.
It was the best of the 3 lunch places we at while skiing.
