Hotel l'Heliopic Restaurant sur Chamonix-Mont-Blanc

29/09/2024: We had coffee Saturday morning at La Potinière. The service was friendly and the place pleasant. We had two coffees, each costing €3.50. It's a bit excessive for a simple cafe, but maybe that's due to the touristy location. We also observed a customer ordering a fondue around midday. What surprised us was that during service, the handle for stirring the fondue was left in the fondue pot at the customer's house. In Switzerland, it's not done like that, but it was interesting to discover another way of doing things. A fun little cultural difference to observe.

26/09/2024: We stopped in for a late lunch early dinner on a rainy afternoon in Chamonix. I was attracted to the Menu du Marche, which consisted of Salade, Duck Confit and Tiramasu for 16 Euro! The food was delicious and we received fabulous service as we watched the rain. It was a great way to end our visit to Chamonix, which had turned on overcast but lovely weather until then rain.
