	Lausanne, a gastronomic city

Gastronomy is an essential part of a successful stay. Sharing convivial moments over a typical dish such as the famous cheese fondue or raclette, appreciating a gastronomic menu at the establishment of Philippe Rochat, successor to the “cook of the century” Fredy Girardet or at the restaurant “La table d’Edgard” at the Lausanne Palace & Spa sampling wine and local produce in the heart of a vineyard on terraces which are entered on the UNESCO world heritage list, learning the secrets of Swiss chocolate manufacture… Lausanne has more than 300 restaurants to cater for every appetite, from brasserie to exclusive traiteur. You can even savour the delights of the lake or a menu on board a boat dating from the Belle Epoque. All the big Swiss and foreign gastronomic guides are unanimous in their appreciation and classification of the finest Lausanne tables and stared restaurants: Michelin Rouge, GaultMillau, Guide Bleu, Plaisirs/La Suisse gourmande, Prosper Montagné. Here is a selection of establishments recommended for gourmet groups.
