We can't keep an eye on prices in mountain restaurants in Courchevel - some are just plain crazy. Even La Soupe Coupe charged €5 for a hot chocolate in Winter 2009 (€10 with brandy in it and it was delicious mind) - and they're by no means the most expensive. La Tania is always the cheapest side of the mountain...
