Face d’Or — Dining Questions

The Private Chef, for guests of Face d’Or Luxury Apartments

Chef-prepared food, ordered online and collected from reception. The menu below is reserved for Face d’Or guests — cooked by Marian Podola and the team at The Private Chef, the same kitchen behind Aroleid Restaurant in Zermatt.

Ordering & collection

Browse the Face d’Or menu, add what you’d like to your cart, and at checkout choose Face d’Or as your pickup location. Payment is taken securely online, so there’s nothing to settle on collection.

From reception at Face d’Or Luxury Apartments, Unterer Mattenweg 54, 3920 Zermatt. Reception will have your order ready under your name.

Collection is from reception during [CONFIRM pickup hours, e.g. 16:00–19:00 daily]. Please place your order at least [CONFIRM lead time, e.g. 24 hours] ahead so the kitchen has time to prepare it.

For Face d’Or guests the service is collection from reception, and it’s complimentary. If you’d prefer delivery elsewhere in Zermatt, The Private Chef delivers on Tuesdays and Thursdays — ask reception or see private-chef.ch.

The Face d’Or menu is reserved for guests staying at Face d’Or Luxury Apartments.

The food

A curated selection of chef-made dishes: mains such as Osso Buco alla Milanese, Beef Bourguignon and Monkfish Thai green curry; sides and potatoes; sauces, stocks and finishings; and desserts. Prices run from CHF 9 for a side to CHF 38 for a premium main.

Frozen. Everything is cooked in our kitchen and frozen to hold it at its best, so you can keep it until you’re ready. Store it in the freezer and check the best-before date on the pack.

Each pack carries its own guidance for heating from frozen — most dishes simply go from freezer to oven or pan, no planning required.

Every dish is marked with dietary icons - vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, low-carb and high-protein among them - and full ingredient and allergen information is shown on each product page and on the pack. If you have a severe allergy, please contact us before ordering so we can advise you properly.

Drinks, payment & changes

Where available, all alcohol is sold to guests aged 18 and over; reception may ask for proof of age on collection.

Securely online at checkout, by card. Prices include Swiss VAT.

Get in touch as soon as you can and we’ll do our best. As the food is prepared fresh to order.
