I have never been in such a decident French restaurant. The place is very expensive, but I suppose that comes with the territory. While the food is a little different then what I am used to it was a good experience and I enjoyed the service and cuisine very much. They seem to pride themselves on customer feedback and if you do not like a dish they will get you a new one. For the prices, though, I better like the dish.

Cable Car

posted by DVC_Chris on 16 May 2009 at 04:26

When you visit Geneva, it is fun to go a little bit outside of the city and just over the French border to take the cable cards up into the mountains. It takes you over 1 km up the mountain and gives you a breathtaking view of the city and the surrounding lake and mountains; it is well worth the trip for this amazing view.

Café de la Presse

I discovered this intimate, yet lively little café and bar during a quick trip to Geneva. I asked the concierge at the hotel to recommend a casual place nearby that would give me a taste of the city, and he directed me to this place. It was definitely lively, as there was a very popular local band playing and large screen TVs had some sporting events displayed. Everyone was having a grand time. I enjoyed mingling with the locals, and the server was extremely accommodating, helping me translate their French menu and making suggestions about what to order. I would recommend this place because it is a microcosm of Geneva's night life. It has a great little menu with lots of interesting food items and the servers will take you under their wing to make sure you enjoy yourself. This is not the type of place I'd usually seek out, but I was only going to have one evening in Geneva. I really liked this place.

Japanese fast food/take out place. Their sushi is inexpensive yet high quality. They have rolls, sashimi, hand rolls, you name it. Their dumplings, teriyaki and tempura are all excellent as well. This is a great place to stop if you want to pick up a delicious take out dinner to bring back to your hotel or apartment.
