la Genolière - Table reservation

I joined a group who booked the whole restaurant for the evening.

The restaurant is a perfect location for people who want to enjoy a short raquette hike before enjoying a delicious fondue. The restaurant is a really charming chalet, simple service but so kind and efficient. One of the best fondue I ate.

Rösti (uncooked potatos), Fondue (strange smell), Vegetable soup (industrial product) - all of it matched with rather heavy pricing. All in all, if you are not too tired, get another 2 km to the next restaurant.

Amazing fondue in outside in the snow and sunshine, great views after a 2km snowshoe/hike. Great for hosting guests to Switzerland, relaxing walk, even better under a full moon.
