How it works
Chamonix's tourist-facing restaurants on Rue du Docteur Paccard and around Place du Triangle de l'Amitié charge significant premiums for local Savoyard dishes (tartiflette, raclette, fondue) that are available at comparable quality for considerably less in restaurants on side streets or in the Chamonix Sud neighborhood.
