Smiling Italian Skier in Cervinia

Wearing a stylized Italian flag-motif winter hat a skiier has a laugh after a pit-stop at Refugio Gran Sometta – an alpine rustic restaurant serving incredible home-style food. Tucked away high up on the mountain on the Italian side of Cervinia, near Zermatt, is The chef who started it, Luciano; who claims to be the first person to have cooked pasta on the mountain back in 1969. The dishes are all served on paper or plastic as there is no running water.
