Gault Millau unveils the top-rated restaurants in Switzerland this year.
This year’s Gault Millau Switzerland guide is out, with reviews of the country’s top restaurants. Unlike the Michelin Guide, Gault Millaut focuses expressly on the quality of food, with commentary about services and atmosphere separate from the final rating. This year’s highest marks go to:
Fischerzunft At the very top of the list is the hotel Fischerzunft restaurant. Located north of Zürich in the town of Schaffhausen, Chef André Jaeger offers a unique fusion of traditional European and Asian-inspired delicacies, which he dubs "Yin and Yang." Chef Jaeger has twice achieved Gault-Millau's Chef of the Year award and earns the Fischerzunft 19 out of a possible 20 points in the survey. Contact: Rheinhotel Fischerzunft, Rheinquai 8, CH-8200 Schaffhausen, tel. +41/52/632 05 05, info@fischerzunft.ch WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO NEXT?
Moving just five miles south of Zürich, we find Chef Horst Petermann and his restaurant Kunststuben. Regarded as one of the most expensive restaurants in the world, Kunststuben serves up a variety of international dishes in a setting that feels like an art gallery. Contact: Horst & Iris Petermann, Seestrasse 160, CH - 8700 Kusnacht, tel. +41/44/910 07 15, info@kunststuben.com Domaine de Chateaux-Vieux Chef Philippe Chevrier's Domaine de Chateaux-Vieux is home to more traditional European cuisine.
