ill have one for you at the loop bar then!!

I think it is La Loupe - right at the bottom of a run into the resort (black?)

It might be loop thinking about it :roll:

Had many a good night i there - also good for food :D

"La Loupe" means "The Wolf" in French so it could be that.....

With all due respect to the Reps, you need to remember that they are typically 19 year old kids with little or no money and whatever they have tends to go on cheap pizza and booze (and good luck to them).

Unfortunately, in my experience, this does tend to mean that they will have little or no first hand experience of the local decent restaurants.

I did say I didn't blame them.

Actually I have to say the recommendations Skiworld give are usually very good. I believe the company approach a range of popular resturants in each resort and secure discounts for it's staff in return for recommending them to clients.

didnt mean to start a debate but it appears anything u post here raises an issue or two!!
as it turns out we were recomended the LOOP bar by the guys at our cattered chalet, dragon lodge. (well recomended for a relaxed atmosphere and easy simple living! and they know teh mountains inside out )they do get commision each time you use a loop card and you get 10% back too with each purchase to redeem anytime u like!
worked out perfectly and infact taht and bagus bar were the best 2 bars we found for future reference!!
ate at la couliour in val claret in wednesday and it was awesome!!

anyong travelling soon would be wise to try for yourselves teh lodge the bar and teh restaraunt at some point!!
