Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
Our stay in Chamonix was rather brief, but the food experiences we had were rich. On top of the foodie fest that was the wedding reception, I had some pretty memorable meals in this little French mountain town.
Before the wedding invitation arrived, I had never heard of Chamonix. Upon learning where the wedding was taking place, my initial reaction was something like, "Sha-moo-what?!" I proceeded to look it up on Google maps to ascertain its geographic location. After all, France is one of the larger European countries in terms of land area. I discovered that Chamonix (formally called Chamonix-Mont-Blanc), is a popular destination for winter sport enthusiasts located in the Haute Savoie department of the Rhône-Alpes region in the southeastern corner of France. The first Winter Olympics in 1924 was held here.
