Lunch suggestions for both skiers and non-skiers.

Steak Café de Paris at 1350 m.a.s.l.

Star chef Martin Bieri’s little cookery nook out in Turbach is well worth the visit, as both the food and the atmosphere are excellent. Situated next to wonderful cross-country tracks and walking trails, it’s the perfect rendezvous lunch spot for both skiers and non-skiers. The Café de Paris Entrecote is a long-time charttopper and can be recommended.

Vis à Vis in Zweisimmen
