Belle Epoque brasserie in Montreux gets an up-to-date look
The brasserie at the luxury resort hotel Montreux-Palace has just gotten a new chef and a facelift. This luxury “pub” is a real institution in Montreux, so there is excitement in the air.
Franck Page, the new chef, worked at Fauchon in Beijing, as well as a long list of other top names.
The Belle Epoque architecture, dating from the 1890s, has been decorated with a clean contemporary style, in dark brown, and gray tones.
An American-style breakfast buffet is served in the brasserie, as well as lunch, afternoon snacks and dinner.
The menu includes both Parisian and Swiss brasserie classics. The afternoon snacks include tea and cakes, rather in the style of an English tea.
