Travelling around Easter is clearly off-season, as we discovered after checking into the Sports Hotel in La Chapelle-en-Vercors only to find all three eateries in town closed. The whole place was deserted (no wonder), it was bucketing down, the wind could have cut you in two, and there wasn’t even a petrol station for a few emergency snacks. For those of you who know Kurt well, starving is not an option! The idea of emergency snacks wasn’t even considered. Finally, we found a lad who knew about Auberge Le Collet, 2 km out of town. So, we braved the elements and were duly rewarded with an exceptionally creative and delicious 3-course meal.
