Hmmm, there must be 2? Because we used to meet up at the Yeti after a day in Avoriaz?

EDIT: From the link that Helen provided:

Hmmm. As one of the Les Gets black runs is called the Yeti it might follow that several places might be named after it?

Morzine:

- Mama's for good value and very good quality. Everything is 10 euros, burger/homemade chips, battered cod/homemade chips, Pizza's noodles and all sorts. I have had more or less everything on the menu and will recommend it all highly.

- L'Etale for consisitenly good food at average prices for French ski resort. Traditionl Savoyard fayre, fish dishes, steaks, pizzas etc. Been there today and it's not bad at all.

- Le Chaudanne for slightly more up market, but with reasonable set menu's starting at 18 euros - Very good food IMO

- Le Grange, is my favourite. Very good menu and reasonable prices. Nice atmosphere.

There are many more and as for mountain restaurants/cafes I think they are all much of a muchness really. One of our favourite is the cafe closest to the top of the Ardent bubble. It usually has a great atmosphere with an ice bar and music/band/dj's outside. The cafe at the top of the swiss wall is another favourite...Really good choice of snacks, crepes or cooked meals and I haven't been disappointed yet!

There is a restaurant in the goat village that is superb but I can't remember it's name...I'll try to find out.

The best restaurant that I have been to is called Les Cornettes, but it is in Chapelle D' Abondance, you would need to drive in the evening or you can ski there at lunch. It is definitely worth the effort...I'll definitely be going back there!

The Yeti bars are a chain...I think.

Pointe de Nyon, good for a leisurely lunch but L'hottys at the top of Chevannes is a must. Sandy runs the front of house with aplomb. Great fun. Over on Mt Chery La Grand Ourse is superb. On Thursday and Friday nights they do also do great evening dinner, they take you up in a piste basher!

We've had a few great meals at Le Tourbillon in Les Gets too - not the cheapest but excellent food

Drove through Les Gets today and thought about stopping for dinner. Not knowing about any of the restaurants there we decided to go somewhere in Morzine where we knew we would get something good.

Nice to have a recommendation for future reference!
