Albert 1er | Chamonix

Luxury (two Michelin star) dining in Chamonix, France at Restaurante Albert 1er was one for the books. Yes, it was a splurge in comparison to your standard meal in Cham, but for a Michelin starred experience, all of it simply exceptional, the six of us who ventured here considered it a reasonable one. (It was 156 euros each and this included two bottles of wine, one was a magnum bottle.) All of us would highly recommend it.
