At the top of the Super Morzine ski lift (1600m), dining tables spill from this chalet-style restaurant onto a pleasant terrace. The ‘Swamp Frog’ whips up great-value galettes (savoury buckwheat crêpes) and omelettes, as well as more substantial Savoyard specials like boîte chaude (baked cheese served with rosettes of cured ham and crunchy gherkins). The restaurant is up the stairs opposite the gondola exit.
