Ferme de Montagne - Les Gets

Tasting menus have become something of a possession of me. In my search for the best spots in Les Gets I discovered @restaurantfdm @FermedeMontagne. Seriously, food is excellent. Favourite dishes include scallop, smoked aal, grilled squid with caramelized whey and apple. On...this is the lamb tongue with carrot, Kimchi and pickled currants amazing. Very well balanced and so delish. Thanks for the bosses for this festival. @jsmith07 @pachapapii. By the way, both chefs have cooking experience over 6 continents and both poles and met in the Antarctic while they cook on an expedition ship. Worth visiting.

Every night you will be pleasantly surprised with 5* gourmet dishes. The kitchen staff are incredibly talented. I must also compliment their abilities to cater for my girlfriend who is vegetarian and allergic to eggs, the Ferme continued to impress us with their creativity.

We went on Christmas Day. The ambiance is fine, decor very nice but the food was a joke. The waitress obviously been told how to present the menu, but it came across as being very pretentious , the oysters are divine, the chef has...been shucking them all day! Well it is a tiny restaurant and not full. We go two oysters!, then the risotto, is flavoured with freshly foraged herbs! This was winter, a portion that a baby could eat. We left having had a nice not memorable meal and could easily have stopped somewhere for fish and chips as well! We were very much still hungry!

Booked this on Trip Adviser research. Bit annoyed that they phoned on the day of the booking to tell us it was a tasting menu and 98 Euros (we were going as a group to celebrate a 50th so felt a bit responsible for the cost).However the evening was fantastic, we were collected and returned at no charge, wines recommended were sublime and the food outstanding. Put in private room which turned out to be great. Probably the highlight of the holiday for us all!!
