OUR PRIVATE CHEF
gastronomy |gaˈstränəmē|
noun
the practice or art of choosing, cooking, and eating good food.
At Hidden Dragon, we believe the old adage "You are what you eat". Therefore, our cooking is nutritious, energizing, healthy and delicious. Hidden Dragon’s private chef will prepare hearty breakfasts, teatime treats, evening feasts and irresistible petit fours to satisfy the hungriest of appetites. Due to the founders' Eurasian heritage, Hidden Dragon's cuisine embraces an Asian-fusion style, combining the Japanese philosophy of letting good ingredients speak for themselves and classical French cooking techniques.
For lunch, guests are encouraged to experience the fine alpine cuisine on offer in the plethora of excellent mountain restaurants throughout the 4 Valley region…. But if a guest prefers lunch curled up in front of the roaring fire or a picnic under a fir tree in the forest, Chef will of course be delighted to accommodate!
VALAISAN PRODUCE
An emphasis is placed on using the finest produce, and where possible using seasonal ingredients sourced from ethical and local suppliers. Luckily, the Valais canton in Switzerland is famed for its array of exceptional dairy produce, cured meats, fruit trees, vineyards, and highly prized Val d’Herens beef.
