Fernandel is the go-to spot in Valle d'Aosta for traditional mountain cuisine and a paradise for cheese lovers, with a historic location in Pré-Saint-Didier and a new one in Courmayeur.
Dishes mentioned
Fonduta di Fontina DOP
I started with a glass of Petit Arvine and a welcome appetizer, then went straight for the Fonduta di Fontina DOP, served with Valdostan potatoes, speck, and cotechino. The melted cheese with potatoes is insane — I could eat it forever.

Guancia di Vitello Cotta Lentamente
Another house specialty — veal cheek slowly cooked with potatoes and crunchy vegetables. The meat is practically melting, succulent, and exquisite.
Panettone Fatto in Casa con Blu di Pecora
For dessert, homemade panettone with blue sheep cheese — a perfect end to the meal.
Caffè alla Valdostana (Grolla dell'Amicizia)
To close, you can't miss the traditional Valdostan coffee — the Grolla dell'Amicizia. But go easy, because it hits hard. Tag your friends to try Fernandel for your Valdostan holidays.
