Full description
Lots of people will have taken you out for dinner by car. (Perhaps) no one has done it on a snowmobile or a snowcat yet.
So we’ll take care of it: we look forward to welcoming you to Valdisotto, to take you to a chalet in the heart of the Alta Valtellina slopes in Bormio, where a traditional four-course dinner awaits you, featuring pizzoccheri, alpine cheeses and homemade desserts, to be enjoyed in a dining room overlooking the lights of the valley floor!
What we will do
We’ll meet at 7. 30 pm at the meeting point in Valdisotto (SO). We’ll be met by a guide who ’ll take us to the chalet by snowmobile or, for larger groups, by snowcat: the choice of vehicle depends on the total number of bookings for the day (snowmobile for up to 10 people, snowcat for more) . The journey will take around 10–15 minutes.
Once we reach the mountain top, we’ll take our seats in the refuge’s dining room, with its wooden walls and views of the mountains surrounding Bormio, for a set-menu dinner featuring traditional Valtellina cuisine, home-cooked using local, zero-kilometre ingredients:
- Starter of cured meats and alpine cheeses
- A trio of first courses featuring pizzoccheri, malfatti and sciatt
- A choice of two main courses: braised beef and grilled salami
- Polenta and chips as a side dish
- Dessert with homemade cake and apple fritters
- Coffee and water
For younger guests, there is a children’s menu featuring a first course (pasta with tomato sauce or meat sauce, or lasagne) , a Milanese-style cutlet with chips and a dessert.
At the end of the dinner, we will be taken back to the meeting point by the same transport as on the way there.
The experience will last approximately 3 hours in total .
