Meribel Mole's Blog

27.12.07.

There is still great snow all over the 3 valleys although some areas will get worn next week when Meribel is 100% full. Some snow is forecast for next week with mixed weather.At the moment is is still very cold so snow is holding up well.

Make sure you book your New Years Eve restaurant or bar the moment you arrive.Everywhere will be booked up by Monday.

Great bands are playing in all the bars again this season. Pick up a copy of Meribel Unplugged in town for the week's gig guide..As usual the Ronny is rocking every afternoon..

Restaurant news: Plantin is fabulous..but expensive..Rastro has a great new chef this year...Refuge has good food and the lovely waitress Suzanne back again this year..Boa Mil is under the new ownership of Fred..the nice guy from Chex Bibi..Food is fab ..atmoshere great..and service very friendly...average prices for a very good restaurant..great sunday roasts again at Evolution...

Other stuff: The new relaxation area is superb..but is now 26 euros 1 visit...and no longer linked to the swimming pool..

Snowjet have cheap flights to Chambery in January...and we have lots of cheap accommodation after new year...

Have a great trip..next mole report when conditions change...

Wednesay 14th Nov 2007. Midday.

Stuart, manager of Cactus Cafe, Chaudanne, just informed me that there is 26cm of fresh snow on his terrace ! More is forecast for tommorrow and the weather is getting colder. Looks very promising for start of the season in just over 3 weeks. Top slopes are also looking great and the snow cannons are throwing out tons of new cold fresh snow. If the weather does not turn suddenly warmer is gonna be a great December. Book your early bargain now before they all go...
