Guidebook for Chamonix-Mont-Blanc
Food Scene
Ideal place to chill after a good day of ski or shopping or hiking or even if the weather is too bad to stay outside. Steph and Charlotte are awesome and will take good care of you!
Music is jammin also- so prepare for a mini groove session while you grub!
I would recommend their juicy burgers or tacos.
This place is also a popular night spot. They have some awesome live music and really good crowds.

Great choice to refill after a long day outdoor.
There are 3 sizes, the bambino is pretty decent size for one person. Medium good to share with 2 people and the large.. is HUGE. Probably recommend sharing that with 4.
If you're planning to eat there, there aren't many seats but try your luck but probably best to plan to take it out.

Drinks & Nightlife
Chamonix eventually gets a proper après ski place with newly open and renovated Folie Douce Hotels.
Just below the slopes the hotel has everything you might need after a ski day: Whether you choose the comfortable sofas for a relax drink at the bar upstairs or the more animated bar downstairs if you still have legs to dance on live music. On sunny days you'll even be able to take profit of the large terrace to enjoy your drink in front of Mont-Blanc.
The hotel also has some good restaurants if you feel hungry after that.

Sightseeing
Situated in the Mont-Blanc massif and accessible by cable car from the Chamonix valley, the Aiguille du Midi will offer you one of the most breathtaking view you over the surrounding mountains. It host a restaurant and a cafe-bar but the main attractions are the "Tube" and the "Step into the Void".
The "Tube" is anchored to the rock and allows people to stay safely inside a pipe, and walk 360° all around the pinnacle, in complete safety, even though there may be thousands of feet of empty space below them.
The "Step into the Void" is a glass room with a glass floor, situated off the uppermost terrace of the Aiguille du Midi at an altitude of 3842 metres.

In less than the time it takes to describe it you will soar, like an eagle, to reach Mont Blanc mystical summit at 4810metres.
From there you will discover that Mont Blanc, the roof of Western Europe, is much more than just a remarkable geographical feature.
