Les Freres Dutruy is one of my favourite wine makers in Switzerland. It was the first red wine in…read moreSwitzerland that I really liked. I found it in a restaurant soon after moving here, and then found it for sale in the local Manor. I hadn't had a chance until just yesterday to visit their tasting room. It was a special open doors tasting event for their 2011 winter wines. The tasting room is located in the centre of Founex village, and is easy to find. It is in a historical building, but the decor inside is beautifully done in light wooden modern tones. They are open for wine tasting every Saturday from 10-1pm. I don't think they make any bad wines. I have tasted them all, and they are good, but there are definitely some that shine above the rest. They have three different labels, one is from a vineyard in Founex, another is from a vineyard in Coppet, and the third is a combination of the best grapes from either of the two. The business has been in the family for multiple generations, and is currently run by two brothers. This is a fantastic place and definitely worth a visit. Bonus the owners are extremely friendly and the service is great.

This place is one of my all time favorites for an after-work stop. Wine bar and wine shop in one,…read moreit has a big, ever-changing selection of Swiss and international wines. Make sure you eat some of the amazing cheese options - or other tapas - together with the wine. Intimate atmosphere with only 6 tables, so make sure to arrive early. Wonderful service!

Mauro is an Italian Deli that makes one of the best Focaccias in Lausanne…read more Ambiance-decor: 3/5 The shop is located at the heart of Lausanne, easily accessible from everywhere. It is is modern but small, and there is no possibility to sit or even stand while eating, so everything is to go. The place is very crowded during lunch time with students form the nearby high school. Food: 4/5 They specialize in very good Focaccias with several choices available. I usually take the Diko Focaccia which is roast-beef, mayonnaise, mozarella and salad. The bread is very good but a bit too greasy to my taste. They also offer a very wide choice of pastas, pizzas and other typical italian food. Everything is very fresh so this is a big plus. Service: 4/5 Mauro will be usually the one serving you your Focaccia, and he is the typical nice italian guy who likes to know his customers and chat with them. All the staff are very efficient but not always smiling. The prices are very decent (around 10 Sfr. for the Diko) which makes it a good value.

Le Gite used to be located by the train station, and was much easier to get too on my way home, but…read morethen they moved to a new space, which is much nicer, but not as accessible. This is one of my favourite places to explore and the best Fromagerie (in my opinion) in Nyon. Not only can you pick from a selection of fresh Swiss cheeses, but you can also grab some fresh local dried sausage, or other local products. The service is always friendly here and speaks some English. They have the best fondue mix, that they make on-site. However, it is highly recommended to eat it the day of purchase. When you request the fondue cheese, they will ask you for how many people, and if they are big eaters. They will then put together a bag for you, and be sure to ask them for their fondue instructions, as they have special printed instructions on how to best cook and serve it. I have had many other great stinky cheeses from here. But, for Fondue at home, this is my go to supplier.

My second year at Arvinis and I was not disappointed. I would definitely recommend going during a…read moreweek night though, or earlier in the day, as the Friday evening got VERY busy, and it was hard at times to make your way through the crowd to the booth to enjoy a sip. Because of this though, I explored some of the less busy booths, and found some hidden gems! Also, be aware of your glass, as I saw many people getting jostled around, and their glass quickly then just became bits on the ground. I love that there are fountains to wash your glass out at and grab some water to drink located throughout the event. Makes it very convenient. I only wish they had a few more bathrooms. As always, the time at Arvinis goes by very fast, and I soon heard the announcement informing us that the event had ended. It is then a large group of people waiting to get out the door, if you are lucky, you might find some nice booth owners, who are looking to empty their bottles, and you can get some wine to sip on as you exit.

A giant wine tasting in an expo center right across from the train in Morges:…read morefor 30 Franks you get a glass, and can test every wine (and more)! The wines come from all over the Schweiz and the globe. This year they featured Lebanon, just so you know. They also had sandwiches (which weren't included in the price)- pretty tasty, but small, and the wait staff weren't nice... Toilets are inside, but more or less porto-potty style. And with so much wine tasting, one must wait for a while... When it closed at 10, all the visitors fled to the McD's across the way. So many folks there, we missed our train (even with a delay)! But get there early, or go on a week night, and your wine tasting evening will go perfectly right!
