As ski resort grocery shops go, Casino is a decent one. There is a small range of fruit and vegetables - plenty to get buy with on a week's self catering, which is what we were doing. We bought spinach, potatoes, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions, carrots, fresh root ginger, lemons, oranges, garlic - basic items really, and the most divine avocados.
They have plenty of other store cupboard items - pasta, tinned goods, rice and the like - really just what you would expect from a mini supermarket. Surprisingly, they also have a Bio (organic range), and the gluten free Genius bread. And quite a few dark chocolates that are suitable for vegans (essential provisions!) So it's probably quite a good place for those with dietary requirements.
Casino however are not big on varieties of beans (although you can get Heinz baked beans!) although there are chickpeas (being vegan, chickpeas pretty much keep me alive) and their beer selection isn't great. They do however, as you may imagine, have stacks and stacks of wine.
Service is good, quick, and typically no queues. We were very happy to have such a good shop very close to our apartment, as for a week of self catering while on a ski holiday, Casino really had everything that we needed.
