Every lunchtime, the Refuge du Plan de l'Aiguille presents Savoyard cuisine prepared with quality ingredients. We invite you to taste cheese and charcuterie boards, our homemade Savoyard stuffing or a slice of our unmissable pies.
Our menu is classic and goes straight to the point: offering copious dishes above all and mainly Savoyard.
A pastry chef by training and having worked in several refuges, Claude prepares dishes where mountain traditions mingle with his many experiences.
For our most typical fresh products, mainly cheeses, we buy them from local producers. We then have a more personal relationship with our suppliers and can use better quality and tasty ingredients.
