Good Afternoon Lovelies, 

It’s a busy old afternoon on the blog today! It could honestly make you want to escape to a little cabin, amongst the hills, in a far away country. One where you can snuggle up all cosy inside or head out onto the snow to ski, snowboard or embrace some fresh air! However, it may not be entirely possible right now! So, it’s time to do the next best thing! 

Put on the ski wear. Don the snow boots. Head to your local Côte Brasserie and be rewarded because from now until the 29th February, as you and eight friends will be given a free round of drinks if you turn up in your slope appropriate outfits. 

To mark the re-launch of their much-loved Alpine menu, the restaurant chain, is allowing everyone in their skiwear to embrace the après-ski lifestyle, celebrating everything about the slopes without having to pay to get to them. All the diners have to do is order off the à la crate menu and say ‘après anything’ to receive the offer. They can then enjoy either the new Spiced Apple Spritz or non-alcoholic Spiced Apple Highball from the new Alpine menu. You can even choose to change it to a 175ml red, white or rose house wine, Meteor beer or any soft drink. 

And if that isn’t enough, diners can also enjoy one of the Alpine dishes, with traditional French cuisine like Diots, which features smoked Toulouse sausage and cherry tomatoes sautéed in white wine with thyme, butter and caramelised onion or Tartiflette – a gratin of sliced potatoes, caramelised onion and smoked bacon lardons topped with melted Reblochon & Comté cheese being available to enjoy. You could also order the Tartiflette Luxe, to share, before ending the meal the Pear & Frangipane Tart or the Alpine Chocolat Chaud as desert! 

This weekend is the perfect time to mark the end of the bleakest month of the year with a free drink, good laughs and lots of yummy foods! The slopes, I mean your local Côte Brasserie restaurant, are waiting for you to slide right in! Now, where did those goggles go?
