Disco trumps dessert at this repurposed restaurant at Aspen Highlands. The moment the lunch dishes are cleared away, the Veuve Clicquot corks will start popping. Cloud Nine has been described as the most hedonistic bar on any ski slope in the world, with revellers in full ski gear up on the tables dancing to the beat of George Michael and Donna Summer. Part of the appeal is its heady location – 3300 metres up the mountain, inside a former ski patrol hut.
