Argentiere — Food and drink

Argentiere is a small but lively resort and punches above its weight in terms of places to eat and drink. The town itself has several excellent eateries, mostly in the Rue Charlet Stratton, and despite being less glamorous in name than neighbouring Chamonix, some of the best food in the valley is to be found in Argentiere.
