Savoyarde cuisine is excellent in small doses. But, you can only eat cheese, butter, bacon,…read morebaguettes, and cream for so long before you just gotta make a new plan. And finding a restaurant in Chamonix that offers something else is hard, especially without getting fussy and upscale. La Petite Kitchen is really good, emphasizing locavore eating and vegetables, and offering tasty, substantial, modernized, Brit-style breakfasts when you just can't face another pain au chocolate.

This is a small hole in the wall restaurant, near the main shuttle bus stop round about. We made…read morereservations for four at La Petite Kitchen based upon advise from Trip Adviser. All items on the menu are very fresh and are made by a small kitchen staff. The food was good, a little pricey. Service was good but a little overworked since it is a busy place. The restaurant was very busy for the Wednesday night we ate here, nearly every table was full for every time slot. Yet many other restaurants in Cham were not busy. So La Petite is a very popular but small restaurant. If you are interested in coming to La Petite, please be sure you make reservations early in the evening as popular items on the menu sell out quickly. If you want to eat at a non-touristy real French Restaurant in Chamonix, I would recommend La Petite. Just be cautioned, you will not get hugh portions of cheese, dries meat and potato that Savoy specialty restaurants in Cham may provide. But what you do get is very fresh and very tasty.

Hubby and I were waiting for a train to Italy. It seemed overwhelming when we walked in... But then…read morea "host" helped us find a table where we could sit with our luggage. It's a buffet, so I got my food first. I loved all the choices. As I went to pay, I noticed the folks ringing us up spoke english. Phew! I asked if they served wine, and he joked with me saying "But of course!!!!" Then Hubby went to get his food. We sat and relaxed. No one rushed us out when we were done. It was a great friendly place to wait for a train.

I went there with a group of friends who are long-time vegans and for some of them are as well…read moreallergic to milk and milk products. Although we were there on the opening night, we had to wait only thirty minutes and the service was excellent. Located in the historic western wing of Lausanne train station, the location is in itself amazing, with restored frescoes covering the ceiling and the walls. Now, for the food. It is freaking fantastic. You two self-service bars - one for deserts and one for the entrees. All the food is vegetarian, a lot of it is as well vegan; I believe all the deserts are vegan as well. The entree bar has two levels - one for hot foods, one for cold ones and is organized as a ring. After you fill your dish on the ring, you can take a piece of bread for free (there are gluten-free bread options), and you need to go to the bar to weight your food as well as to get drinks. The selection includes several cocktails, wines, beers as well non-alcoholic fancy beverages and the hot stuff - coffee, chocolate, teas. For me, I have sampled the entire hot bar and took the cheapest glass of white wine they had. Not only I was not disappointed, but I was also amazed at the quality of the food - everything I tried was absolutely delicious, with a special mention for their stuffed peppers and vegetarian falafel-like balls as well as vegan tartar. I am a meat-eater myself, so quite often I tend to find vegan/vegetarian cuisine lackluster, but this was absolutely not the case. The wine, despite its low price, was quite good and paired well with the dishes. As soon as we were finished with the main dish, we went to grab some deserts with hot drinks. Whereas my friends opted for hot chocolate, I made a strategic error of opting for a cold one. The crucial difference is that cold chocolate is cold milk with powder, wheres the hot one is the hot milk with an actual lollipop of chocolate on a wooden mixing spoon. Fortunately, I was able to avenge myself by getting the last pieces of the cheesecake (I believe without any diary in it). The dates were heavenly as well, whereas all the other desserts had a bit too strong of a flavor of soja milk for me where I would have expected the normal milk. Overall, I tend to eat quite a lot, which is sometimes a problem in European restaurants. In this case, I was pretty well satiated, without overeating, for only 35 CHF, including everything. For a restaurant this quality in such a location and with such a great environment in Switzerland, it's a more than decent price! Overall - would absolutely recommend, you should definitely check it out if you are vegetarian/vegan or have friends.
