Chalet Chef

*Fully recruited for 26/27*

Chalet Chef

Cook a season in the Alps – and train under a Great British Menu chef.
Here’s something no other chalet company in La Plagne can offer you this winter..We’ve just brought chef Thom Bateman – Great British Menu, The Flintlock – into Alpoholics as a partner and part-owner. He’s designing our menus, and he’s training our chefs personally:
  • October: training at Thom’s own restaurant before the season starts
  • December: Thom out in resort, in our chalets, working with the team

So this isn’t “cook the same tired chalet menu.” You’ll be cooking genuinely restaurant-quality food, with proper development from one of the most-followed chefs in the country – the kind of season that actually moves your cooking forward.

  • Preparing and serving breakfast, afternoon tea, and a delectable three-course evening meal, with aperitifs and canapés on arrival day.
  • Catering to guests’ dietary requirements and preferences, ensuring everyone enjoys a memorable dining experience. Provide children’s dinner if and when appropriate.
  • Maintaining high standards of cleanliness and hygiene throughout the kitchen and chalet alongside your host; with a full chalet turnover weekly.
  • Completing admin, food orders, and relaying stocks to management. Maintain weekly budgets and ensure all receipts are submitted in an efficient and timely manner.
  • Snow clearing.
  • Daily testing and maintenance of hot tub chemical levels with a full water change each week.

Chalet Cook/Host Dual Role
