Savoie
Every Savoyard speciality is prepared with love at this friendly bistro. But between tartiflettes (potatoes, cheese and bacon baked in a casserole), fondues and steaks are a few surprises: Japanese platters assembled by a local sushi chef, aromatic bulgur wheat with vegetables, and chicken gratinated beneath a blanket of rich Reblochon cheese.
There’s a swanky neon-lit bar to linger at, if you’re waiting for a table.
