The Alpine Culinary Residency
More Than a Meal. A Complete Hospitality Experience.
True luxury in a private chalet is the absence of effort. Chef Victor Garrido and his boutique team do not merely “cook meals”; we manage the entire culinary ecosystem of your holiday. From sourcing rare local ingredients in the Tarentaise Valley to the silent choreography of table service, our goal is to transform your chalet into a private gastronomic destination.
The Winter Residency (December – April)
Locations: Courchevel 1850, Val d’Isère, Megève, Méribel.
The kitchen is the heartbeat of the chalet. We integrate seamlessly into your household schedule to fuel your days on the slopes and restore you in the evenings.
The Skier’s Breakfast: Vitality juices, à la carte eggs, fresh boulangerie items, and barista coffee service ready before the first lift opens.
Après-Ski Restoration: A curated spread of sweet patisserie and savory Savoyard bites waiting for you upon your return from the cold.
The Evening Service: A bespoke 3-to-5 course dinner tailored to your group’s energy, ranging from comforting family-style sharing platters to Michelin-standard plating.
The Logistics: We handle all provisioning, snow-logistics for ingredients, and kitchen sanitation.
The Summer Migration (June – September)
Locations: Ibiza, Formentera, Saint-Tropez.
As the snow melts in the Alps, our culinary house migrates to the Mediterranean. We offer our established winter clients total continuity in service—the same chef who knows your breakfast preferences in Courchevel will serve your lunch in Ibiza.
Villa & Estate Dining: Full-day management for large families in private fincas, focusing on open-fire cooking and local produce.
Maritime & Yachting: Specialized provisioning and chef services for superyachts, handling the complex logistics of a galley kitchen while delivering lighter, coastal gastronomy.
The Summer Table: Tablescapes designed for al fresco dining, utilizing local citrus, fresh herbs, and the golden hour light
Curated Service Formats
01
The Signature Residency (Full Board)
Designed for families and groups seeking total immersion. We manage the entire food and beverage rhythm of your holiday—Breakfast, Lunch (or rigid Après-Ski), and Dinner. We stock the fridge, manage the wine cellar, and ensure the kitchen is immaculate 24/7.
02
The Flexible Explorer (Half Board)
We respect that Courchevel and Val d’Isère host some of the world’s finest restaurants. This service includes daily breakfast and afternoon tea, with dinners provided on 5 selected nights, giving you the freedom to explore the village scene on the other evenings.
03
The Gala Experience (One-Off)
Bring the restaurant to your private table. A single evening of high gastronomy featuring a 7-course tasting menu, vintage wine pairings, and white-glove service. Ideal for birthdays, corporate closings, or a final night celebration.
04
The Maritime & Yachting Service (Summer)
As we migrate to Ibiza and Saint-Tropez, we specialize in the unique logistics of superyacht dining. Whether for a day charter or a week-long voyage, we handle complex maritime provisioning and deliver refined, lighter coastal gastronomy tailored to the Mediterranean climate and galley constraints.
05
Butler & House Manager Services
Beyond the kitchen, Victor Garrido's culinary house now offers dedicated butler and house manager (majordomo) services — extending our founder-led philosophy to every detail of your residency, from the first arrival to the final farewell.
The "Invisible" Details
What separates a Boutique Culinary House from a standard agency is the obsession with the details you don’t see.
Sourcing
We bypass supermarkets. We work with local Savoyard cheese artisans, butchers in the valley, and fresh markets to ensure unrivaled quality.
Dietary Precision
Keto, vegan, kosher-style, or severe allergies are handled with medical-grade seriousness, never as an afterthought.
The Clean Down
When we leave, your kitchen will be spotless. We respect the sanctity of your private space.
