1. La Queue de Cochon Restaurant and Bar
Well worth seeking out!
Despite its name, there is a whole lot more to this quirky little bar/restaurant than just pig products! There is a real gastronomic feast to choose from on the menu, such as grilled oysters or razor clams and camembert and red current tartlet to start, followed by Aberdeen Angus flank steak or duck burger, both served with fois gras, grilled halibut and even a vegetarian haggis. Of course, if you do want to go the whole "hog" (get it??) you can start with a serving of pigs tails slow roasted in cider and finish up with filet, cheek and belly of pork with a black pudding cream.
There are various promos on throughout the week, such as "Moules Monday" - where you can have a starter and a choice of mussels for main with a glass of wine for just a bargain price. Other meal deals include oysters and wine, or charcuterie and wine combos, and at the weekend, bag yourself a juicy duck burger and a pint or how about a pulled pork burger at reduced prices in the bar during Happy Hour?
Located right in the heart of Le Lavachet, just opposite the bus stop, a visit to this bar/restaurant has to be on your list whilst here in Tignes.
Open throughout the season Tuesday to Sunday 17:00 - 01:00. Closed Mondays.
