We are lucky in Les Gets to have such a great selection of restaurants to choose from, both on the slopes and in town and the latest on the scene Les Dur à Cuire restaurant in the centre of Les Gets live up to the reputation of having some of the best restaurants in a ski resort – Well in my opinion!

Les Durs à Cuire

Les Durs à Cuire – the name itself for the non-French is, if I understand correctly a play on words. It’s an old expression originating with the sailors and soldiers from the Nineteenth Century and is a culinary metaphor. The meaning is to speak of a person who is difficult, or tough to accommodate.

The stylish interior décor creates a great atmosphere in the restaurant, it is a large spacious restaurant with fabulous lighting and different style of seating. Some of the seating is in booths and some more open with both high and standard height tables. I would say it has a modern and understated Savoyard style. Les Durs à Cuire Restaurant, Les Gets describes itself as an Alpin’ speak easy!
