Ski safari in Alta Badia

About my ski safari in Alta Badia, a gourmet Michelin experience in the Dolomites. On the program, good food and ski!

For the sixth season in 2018, the destination Alta Badia invited 13 award winning chefs to create dishes that are served in 13 mountain huts. For the kick off day of the season, a gourmet ski safari in Alta Badia is organized on the slopes. Everyone can purchase a ticket for 50Euros and ski from one mountain hut to the next and taste meals created by Michelin starred chefs. The price includes 4 dishes and tasting of local wine chosen by wine connoisseurs of the region. The opportunity to meet the chefs in person and to see Italian Michelin stars cooking on the slopes at 2000meters.

A gourmet Michelin experience

This season’s theme was Childhood Flavours. The Michelin chefs had to recreate a dish that they loved in their childhood. Famous names participating are : Giorgio Locatelli, Norbert Niederkofler, Matteo Metullio, Nicola Laera, etc

My favourite dish were :

“Veal cheek with Gremolata Sauce, parsley root and roasted prunes” by Nicola Laera at the Bioch Mountain Hut.
