Great breakfast and brunch food. Muffins are their specialty, but they also make bagels and other baked goods. Great place to walk to in the morning, literally a 2-3 minute walk away.

My wife and I really like this place. They serve smaller "tapas" style dishes which are varied and very tasty. A little pricey, but I still like it. We get the Bone Marrow (it's not for everyone) and Filthy Fries. 5 minute walk from the house.

French restaurant with excellent food. Probably have to call in for reservations at least a week in advance, maybe more depending on the time of year. We really like the foie gras. Even if it's not on the menu, ask, they sometimes still have it.

Everything Else

If you want to enjoy winter sports but don't have any equipment with you, you can rent them here on the way to go to mountain! I went there to rent snowshoe set once, and it was very convenient. I was worried that they might run out of equipment, so I went there earlier in the morning.
