La Gruba - Valle di Gressoney
La Gruba an amazing restaurant in an amazing site ! This restaurant is located in Gruba hamlet, a little bunch of refurbished old houses in Val di Gressoney (known also as Valle del Lys) – Valle d’Aosta region.
The dinner hall is fantastic. It is large glass room, from which you can observe the surrounding environment: mountains, forests, sky and during the winter it seems to dine under the falling snow.
