Food scene

This is our favourite for a bubbly dinner out. Forget about cheese and heavy local kitchen, David's delicious cross-kitchen creations changing every week and the city vibes make you almost forget you are in Haute-Savoie. We recommend reservation. If you are lucky, you can also dine in the bistro area in the back without a reservation.
