The Michelin Guide's review
Housed within one of the resort’s top hotels, this restaurant loves nature, hence its name that pays tribute to the last remaining species of brown bear in the Alps. The interior resembles a forest with slim tree trunks separating the tables into little thickets, a ceiling covered with a canvas depicting foliage and magnificent tables carved from walnut wood. Chef Clément Bouvier, former second to Jean-François Piège, signs creative Alpine cuisine with a rustic edge, mixing freshwater fish or game with aromatic herbs and plants picked in the mountains. On a constant quest for the best local ingredients, each dish is fully in tune with the seasons. The cheese trolley is 100% Alpine in origin and is escorted by an impressive wine list.
