La Folie Douce opens in Meribel

Your reporter was lucky enough to drop in on the new Folie Douce restaurant and club in Meribel in December, just before it opened.

This is the third Folie Douce, following the very successful operations in Val Thorens and in Val d'Isere.
We were lucky enough to meet Val d'Isere supremo, Kely Starlight (pictured below with Graham Bell, who was also with us):

Kely told us about the Folie Douce concept:
"We double up a restaurant with open-air clubbing. It's shiny, people are dancing in the middle of nowhere."
True, but that is only half the story. Until you've experienced the Folie Douce in its full madness – with themed dancers and half-naked bodies on tables (even if it's freezing cold), then you can't really understand what it's about.

So try it out next time you are nearby – you'll not forget the Folie Douce experience quickly!

La Folie Douce was dutifully experienced by our erstwhile reporter Iain from Skipedia, who we are unreliably misinformed was "only there for the skiing".
