Fodor's Expert Review L'Azimut

$$$$ Courchevel French

This is hardly a jacket-and-tie kind of place, as the clientele often come straight from the slopes. The laid-back atmosphere, congenial staff, and simple wood tables are among the joys of L'Azimut, where chef François Moureaux's cooking has earned the place a Michelin star. The dishes are updates of the classics, with some truly amazing flourishes, so look for panfried foie gras with passion-fruit foam, roasted breast of chicken with truffle cream, or turbot with a Champagne sauce. Don't pass up the cheese course; sample as many of the local favorites as you like, and they're all sliced for you tableside.
