Cheese factory that triples as a restaurant and cheese shop, so I'll review the latter two…read more The shop: Unbelievable selection of alpine cheese, both from their own production and from other local cheese makers, also yogurt, milk and other dairy products. Excellent quality and prices. They also offer a limited choice of artisanal dry pasta, chocolate, cookies and some swiss souvenirs. The restaurant: Coziness personified. High beamed ceilings, warm lights, wood everywhere. Even a small cheese manufacture museum! Although the place is rather large (specially for such a little town) it's always busy. The menu is authentic swiss-italian alpine fare featuring (of course!) the most delicious cheese from their own production: grilled robiola cheese on a bed of fresh greens, hearty cheesy pastas, rosti topped with a fried egg, fondue... you get the idea. Also the deserts are note-worthy. I'm thinking pannacotta. Yum!

We dined at this small Italian restaurant on our last night in Interlaken: headline-FANTASTIC!…read more Reservations are a good idea unless you are feeling lucky. They saved a great table for our group of 4 tucked up under the giant awning-which was lucky because there was a brief rain shower. Staffing is a bit slim but boy do they hustle. The owners son ended up helping us out and we had a very fun time interacting with him. The tempting menu offered almost too many options including hosemade pastas, pizzas and mains. We opted to share the bright and tasty tomato bruschetta (yum!) while I got the lasagna (huge portion) and my wife the lemony risotto with shrimp (favorite). Our friends got a tasty Neapolitan pizza (lots of options) and a spaghetti with eggplant which they enjoyed. We washed it down with a very reasonably priced bottle of brunello (2020 vintage-score!) and finished with a bit of their own limoncello. Their setting in a cute historical square makes you think just for a moment that you are in Italy as the clock tower rings out the hours. Do yourself a favor and plan to head over to this hidden gem in Untersee- just across the river.

Great food with a beautiful view!…read more Ascona is absolutely beautiful and this restaurant sits on one of the prettiest streets I've seen that overlooks the entire lake and mountains and it's a beautiful sight to see. During the day you can sit outside in the mornings or afternoons and share a cup of coffee or nice glass of wine and just enjoy the sun shining over the lake and the peace and tranquility and beauty of Switzerland from this great restaurant. At night the restaurant lights are dimmed low and the dinner is enjoyed by glow of candlelight. It makes for a wonderfully romantic evening. The wine list is pretty extensive and they also have a nice selection of Ticinese wines that you cannot find outside of Switzerland. The staff is very friendly and welcoming and our server was happy to go over the wine list with us and made some excellent recommendations for local wines to try. They have a pretty good extensive menu for food as well, they have everything from pizza to salads to pasta and grilled shrimp and everything is pretty affordable especially for being in Switzerland. One of the best dishes I had was the mushroom risotto it was very very good and full of flavor. It was also nice that you could order the smaller or larger portion size which is always a great option for groups who like to share and try several plates. I highly recommend trying some of their deserts they are all very good as well. They had some deserts on the menu that I've never had anywhere else before and some I've never even heard of so we decided to try them since our server recommended them so highly and said they were some of the restaurants specialties and they were all very unique and very very good. Overall it's a great place, if you're in the area and looking for a nice place to enjoy the view and get some great food I highly recommend checking this place out morning or night you will not be disappointed!

I love seeking the hidden gems, and this is certainly one in Locarno…read more It's Michelin listed but not rated - but then, who cares? Sometimes Michelin rated means dropping a few hundred francs for a beautiful atmosphere while still feeling hungry... A group of us ordered various dishes and every single dish I have eaten/tried are simply very fresh, ingredients meticulously blended, and nicely decorated. They even proudly claim their local tomato served in their tomato/mozzarella dish is the best - and amazingly it really tasted as if it was freshly picked. The serving sizes are perfect and I'd recommend ordering from their menu of the day - you get a special pricing based on how many dishes from the selection you want to order, and this ensures you are eating the freshest dishes from the menu. With pasta cooked and seasoned to perfection, lamb that is perfectly cooked, fresh succulent tomatoes, perfectly cooked risotto served with local egli filet, one can't go wrong eating here. The service is very helpful and the chef comes out to meet everyone after the meal. Set your GPS and find this place. It's located on a small corner across from the Migros Garden and Coop - so not too hard to find. Reasonably priced meal for a Michelin listed restaurant.
