We first came to Morzine in 2009 for our first ski season and absolutely fell in love with the place and the lifestyle. After travelling and working just the winter seasons here for 5 years we decided to make the permanent move and call the area our home.
We have now been living, working and owning a business here for the last 3 years full time, starting with our Catering Company ‘Chez Toi’ Over the three years we have built the business to be a successful company catering for people in their chalets in both the winter and summer seasons. Whilst continuing with Chez Toi we are now in the process of opening a small restaurant, ‘Wild Beets Kitchen’.
We have noticed from our time spent in the mountains that there is definitely a lack of healthy places to eat. The French Alps is notoriously famous for its food, and as a tourist you don't mind indulging on the massive amount of cheese, potato and charcuterie, but after a while you do start craving something a bit lighter. This is where the area is lacking, but things are starting to slowly change.
During the summer seasons there are more and more people who are coming to the area who are looking to eat more healthily, and who are generally very active, from Road Bikers to Triathletes, to hikers and to people on yoga retreats. Summers here are beautiful and warm (mostly!) and people like to eat lighter more healthy meals.
During the winter season we also find it difficult to find something nice and healthy for lunch, we are so busy and on the go that we feel we need something good to eat, and not just another burger!
Generally there doesn’t seem to be as many options for eating more healthily and this is where the idea for Wild Beets Kitchen was born.
Wild Beets Kitchen is a place where you can come and eat and not feel guilty afterwards.
We produce delicious, healthy dishes packed with the nutrition that will give you the energy to stay on top of your game.
We will be offering Breakfasts, wraps, salad boxes, fresh smoothies & refuel dinners, as well as a relaxed vibe with good coffees. Along with our main menu we will be offering 'make your own' wraps & salad boxes so you can customize and eat the way you want! You can come along, sit outside and enjoy the sunshine with a coffee and cake, or you can grab a lunch to take away with you.
Take one of our carefully designed salads or wraps, or make your own if you fancy it, choosing from our selection of ingredients and having it your way.
In the evenings we will have a selection of main course dishes to choose from.
Wild Beets Kitchen will hopefully be open from the end of May. Keep an eye on our social media platforms 'facebook' and 'Instagram' for our official opening date.
We look forward to welcoming you all through the door.
