After a great day on all fronts thus far, the bar was set very high for dinner. We had reservations at Le Museum, a traditional Swiss restaurant in the hills of Montreux above the train station. After a long day on our feet, we had amassed a huge collective appetite for some “real” fondue and couldn’t wait to indulge in pure gluttony.
Upon finally finding the restaurant (it looks like it an old farmhouse), it was unclear that the place was even open until we hesitantly pushed open the heavy wooden front doors and had all five senses immediately attacked by freshly scalded Gruyère and Fribourg vacherin cheese. We were definitely in the right spot and the restaurant was indeed open for business.

As seen from the pictures, the inside of the restaurant had a very warm yet cavernous atmosphere, with lots of dark wood and smoke stained walls.
I think that I’ll let the pictures of dinner speak for themselves. Needless to say, the fondue was delicious.
And as if cheese fondue wasn’t enough, we decided to get the chocolate fondue (the fruit makes it healthy, right?) for dessert.
On the food coma scale, I’d have to say that this felt like Thanksgiving dinner x 100.
