Le Chalet Flachaire: Thomas Flachaire's first restaurant in Abondance

On February 14, 2025, Thomas and Estelle Flachaire opened Le Chalet Flachaire in Abondance. This unique venue hosts just 4 tables for an exclusive experience.

Estelle and Thomas Flachaire are about to open the doors to their long-awaited project: Le Chalet Flachaire. Located in the heart of the Vallée d'Abondance, this intimate restaurant will offer an exclusive gastronomic experience from February 14, 2025. Featuring just four tables, it will offer refined cuisine featuring Thomas's smoky, peppery and tangy flavors, sublimated by gourmet sauces. Diners can choose between a three- or five-course tasting menu, in a warm and elegant setting.

A couple with an impressive CV

This ambitious project was born of the couple's passion and expertise. Thomas, after a prestigious career with Roellinger, Marcon, Bras (in France and Japan) and Troisgros, and Estelle, a specialist in communications and luxury hotels, decided to create a unique place where gastronomy and the art of living come together.

In 2023, they acquired a chalet dating from the 70s and undertook a complete renovation to turn it into an exceptional space. The chalet is laid out over four levels: one floor for their private residence, another dedicated to the two guest suites, a level reserved for the restaurant, and finally a first floor housing the cellar and pantry.

" Thomas and I chose to settle in the Abondance valley. We're only 20 minutes from Thonon, 1h30 from Annecy, in the immediate vicinity of the major winter sports resorts, and in an area where there are very few offers comparable to ours ", confided Estelle at the Gault&Millau 2024 Awards.

With this long-awaited opening, Le Chalet Flachaire has positioned itself as a new must-visit destination for mountain and gastronomy lovers. An address where every detail has been thought out to offer an unforgettable experience, combining authenticity and culinary excellence.
