Le Hameau de mon père - Elise Veyrat, French restaurant in Manigod, France.
Le Hameau de mon père sits in a reconstructed mountain farmhouse in the Aravis range at 1,600 meters (5,250 feet) elevation. The setting offers views of Mont Blanc and the surrounding Alpine peaks.
The restaurant was founded on family land and uses a building designed to reflect a traditional mountain farmhouse from the family's past. This connection to ancestral roots shapes how the place operates today.
The kitchen draws on wild herbs and flowers picked daily from the mountain slopes, reflecting how the region has cooked for generations.
The location sits high in the mountains and is best visited in summer and early fall when mountain roads are open. Visitors should reserve ahead and bring layers, as temperatures are cool at this elevation.
The grounds include a botanical garden, bread oven, and food storage room where visitors can join workshops on local crafts. These spaces show how traditional cooking and food preservation have worked in the Alpine region.
