Jibber Cruise

Poor Lory last year regrettably broke himself for a few weeks. But on the plus side he made a little jib vid from the SIC archives.

Thanks Lory!

 

Returning Wonders

'Lory and Sashaaaa'

We are pleased as punch to announce the return of mega staff duo Sasha and Lory this coming winter 2016!

Already looking forward to mountain bake off, constant lovliness and insane snowboard moves!

*We love you guys!! *

Superstar Chef

Superstar Chef!

You’ll never guess where I was this working this week……

As the personal chef to Tori Amos and her crew!!!

I had the privilege to work and stay at Martian Engineering Studios in Cornwall and prepare their breakfast, lunch and dinner whilst they rehearsed for a upcoming festival in Barcelona.

As you can imagine I took this all within my stride, chefing for a music legend ain’t no thang *!?* So you’ll be pleased to hear that when I was first introduced to Tori and her family I promptly turned the colour of a beetroot, and continued to glow away in bashful embarrassment for the next ten minutes even outshining the bright red kitchen!

Fortunately I composed myself and knocked up a variety of tasty meals for Tori and her team over the next  four days. Serving a selection of hearty and healthy delights including; Moroccan mezze, Sunday Roast, Italian platter, and on request good ole steak with heaps of veggies and peppercorn sauce….rounding it off nicely with homemade tequila ice cream!

It was really nice to meet them all and lovely to see that after a long day they liked nothing better than enjoying each other’s company  unwinding over dinner with some bottles of wine.

As you can imagine I really enjoyed this experience and along the way stumbled upon a selection of new dishes .  So if you come and pay us a visit this winter,  get ready for some Super Star Cooking!

Still not convinced, How about a little taster

Ah Serre Chevalier! All that fresh powder days after a snowfall, and not a soul to share it with. We have had to tolerate this quiet resort with its ridiculous amounts of off piste for too long………..    Please come and make some tracks of your own!

 

SIC featured in Vogue UK November 2014

We opened up this November's edition of Vogue only to find little old us featured as a recommendation. 'Vogue Escapes...... guide to the perfect festive break'.

Don't worry if you missed it...I have it here for your perusal.... & a gold framed copy in every SIC bedroom/toilet/shower *joking...but actually a very good idea*

Ever shot down the mountain on a sledge rather than the safety of your ski's or snowboards?....

Serre Chevalier has an insanely fun run that begins at the mid station of the Aravet lift in Villeneuve and ends at the base of the lift...conveniently outside the pub!! 

Immense fun....don't believe us? See here!

3 hour run

It is hard to imagine.  But.  We know a magical ski resort where it is possible to enjoy a whole 3 hours - off piste - without seeing another soul. Private powder session!
Exclusive to Serre Chevalier : )

serre chevalier - opening day

"What a day! Heavy snowfall, fresh powder, quiete lifts....Serre Chevalier opening day! "

Last weekend we headed off to Montgenevre - the insanely snowy resort just 15 minutes drive from Briancon.

Joining our pals from Chez Serre Chevalier we enjoyed our first ride of the season in freshly snow spread slopes!
