Notes: a corner of Switzerland in the heart of Soho. Enter the small premises to find yourself welcomed by an intense scent of cheese that won’t let you alone even hours after you have left the restaurant.
Don’t waste time with starters and be honest about the real reason you came here: the fondue, a melted cheese lover’s dream available in a few different versions. Pick a traditional Moite-Moite (melted gruyere and vacherin cheese from Switzerland) and one of the variation such as the Forestiere (bubbling cheese with wild mushrooms), all to be slowly consumed using little pieces of bread or potatoes. A bottle of white Petite Arvine du Valais will take you towards the end of your meal but don’t put up resistance and before leaving, surrender to another guilty pleasure: the chocolate fondue.
End with a generous shot of Kirsch: will be more than needed.
