On reservation this offer includes:
Georges Wenger Restaurant & Hôtel
Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux and hotel in the country (Le Noirmont)
Georges Wenger never stops reinventing the cuisine of the Swiss Jura region that he loves so much. “For me gastronomy is a cultural gesture, a way of expressing a region and its identity”. At his table you will find morel mushrooms, asparagus, cress, trout, rhubarb, game, truffles and wild berries depending on the season. For him the mountain plateau is the best market you could wish for. He is passionate about his country and is constantly leafing through ancient cookbooks to reinvent a contemporary cuisine inspired by tradition. This is how the “tomme au foin” (a mountain cheese left to ripen in hay), which had been forgotten since the 17th century, made its comeback on his menu. In the birthplace of Swiss watch making, or “watch valley”, be sure to take the time to discover this great gastronomic address…

Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux and hotel in a vineyard (Peney-Dessus)

For my birthday I was allowed mussels followed by sole with red wine and a diplomate, the dessert with vanilla cream, candied fruit and sponge fingers…” Philippe’s dream is now very real and he has become a chef to be watched: one of the many reasons for stopping off at this old vineyard farmhouse transformed into a palace of elegance. Perch cooked in coarse salt flavoured with lemon grass, fried langoustine tails with peas and dried ham, preserved claw ravioli with tomato…
