- You are looking for drinks or snacks: In a nearly pub-like place: Gees serves on the main floor. Gigs play fom 10pm there: I mean a high end snack with a very fancy cocktail or a great bottle from a selected savvy cave or a home made non-alcoholic lightly sweetened Ginger Beer (as a non sugar and non alcohol drinker, zis is MY recommendation) - You are looking for the best sushis in town, go downstairs in the restaurant. Please book in advance as everyone knows they are the best - You want to dance and party, go downstairs too!

You're looking for a chic terrace with a view on the Matterhorn above the village. Try their French fries with truffle or their flammekuchen to go with a Swiss white wine or their delicious home made iced tea (not too sweet, MY recommandation as a sugar drink hater) and that is: HEAVEN. (PS: this is where my darling and I spend our first afternoon talking while viewing Matterhorn. I think he felt both in love with it and me at the same time!)

You want the traditional mountain gift with a touch of French elegance and sense of humour (yes, there is a French sense of humour even in our Swiss conservative old stylish Zermatt!) You want to show off with your new Après-Ski fancy hand made jumper and contemporary boho jewellery, this is why you start with treating yourself first. And then for your friends eventually if they really deserve it (cause to be honest, you would prefer to selfishly keep all those new goodies to yourself, they are so cool)... Carine is there to share her love of the mountains over and au-delà Matterhorn as she comes from the French Alps and brings the most of Cham and other places with her.

You become literally crazy when someone uses the "C" word? Welcome to Wondkaland. Well, no Johnny Depp here, but the best chocolates in a Matterhorn shape that Alexandra designed herself and have these made in the centre of Switzerland in Thun by a premium chocolatier. These are also served in the 5 Star Hotel "Mont Cervin Palace" but this is a secret. Well not anymore now that it is written here. You are a hot chocolate connaisseur and have time and money to try their whole list? Add a succulent panini full of greens and healthy stuff or salad or cakes to add up the calories (it is rather cold in Zermatt, you will need these extra carbs).
