Gault&Millau's review 2026

Stéphane Buron, now ably supported by his son Antonin, has succeeded in Courchevel in meeting a delicate challenge: to make Chabichou without purring, avoiding the trap of a cuisine that would only have a future in its past. Certainly, in the magnificent Walt Disney winter-white chalet, it's tempting to recall childhood memories with Mamie Odette or mushroom-picking with Michel Rochedy, but these nostalgic touches don't prevent the chef from finding his own timeless style, as a craftsman of excellence who masters cooking and sauces so well. While luxury products are in high demand, we are delighted by the growing importance of local production, particularly for vegetables and side dishes: the artichoke with its truffled brioche, the splendid and very gastro evocation of the leek with its truffle and oyster vinaigrette (the beef and oyster tartare is, like some other satellites, of somewhat questionable utility), the bay of Seine scallop is a very fine piece, served with smoked Jerusalem artichoke and a very "peguish" pig's trotter juice, the langoustine is itself disguised as a scallop, in medallion form with fermented liquid rice and ponzu vinaigrette, and in second form as a tartar with aloe vera (the third course, grilled on a Japanese barbecue with a fine Maltese sauce, is almost an extra (or too much?), the sea bass confit with seaweed and Kristal caviar is a tribute to Rochedy and the venison makes a truly beautiful dish with its blueberry poivrade and an excellent boudin. The desserts show great freshness (grapefruit meringue creamy powder, cucumber sudachi shiso) closing sequences from €250 to €450 (five to nine times). Cellar of great vintages galore (an impressive DRG vertical), perfectly ordered service, visibly involved and happy.
