Shopping and cooking
IMPORTANT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU COME
Eating and groceries at home
Groceries can be obtained from the local supermarket (Sherpa). Bread can also be bought here, but this can also be done diagonally opposite at the local bakery.
Large supermarkets are available in:
Bourg d'Oisans:
Vizille:
- Supermarché Carrefour, RN91 Isere, Rue Messidor, 38220 Vizille
- Intermarché Super, 315 rue Ambroise ZI du, Cornage, 38220 Vizille
- Lidl, 278 Rue Jean Jaures, 38220 Vizille
- LeClerc Echirolles, Espace Comboire. 38130 Echirolles
Which may be a good idea to prepare and freeze a number of dishes at home before arrival. Saves a lot of work in the kitchen and heating in the microwave and oven is easy.
The refrigerator has a freezer compartment, but in winter dishes can be placed on the balcony; it freezes during the day in winter! So you have a large natural freezer!
It is also an idea to bring baked bread; saves a walk to the bakery.
Of course you can do that if you want to work in the kitchen. The electric hob has enough capacity for 4 pans. All herbs are in stock. And there is plenty of kitchen tools.
For the dining table there are enough plates, cutlery, glasses and chairs for 14 people.
