Moritzino

For those interested in heading to “the” place for après ski, Moritzino is it (think Aspen’s Cloud 9). Open for over 50 years, this restaurant, wine bar and rowdy après-ski spot are quite the scene during the winter months. Serving up some of the best local cuisine and wine, Moritzino is a wonderful stop for both food and wine lovers. Chef Marco Spinelli is known for his meat, seafood and delicious pasta dishes, featuring seasonal produce from the surrounding area. Outside the hut is a true Neapolitan pizza oven serving up thin pies to travelers less inclined to sit for a long meal. The wine bar also offers a slightly cozier ambience and the sommelier can guide guests through a highly refined collection of wines.

Every afternoon at 2pm, DJ Luca Noale starts blasting tunes on the restaurant’s terrace that can be heard over the mountaintops. If you thought skiing was the highlight of the day, think again. Here, friends, strangers and locals can be seen dancing on tables, partying and enjoying the music.
