Les Jardins du Léman
What they say...
« From the Grande Rue, striding along which one goes wondering whether all of these restaurants and shops may not just be “tourist traps”, looking suspiciously at this big mansion displaying its attributes of café, pub, brasserie and restaurant. Still, this is one of the most beautiful views in Yvoire, from a panoramic terrace on top of the house. Dining rooms on the ground floor and upstairs are yet not that bad at all either, but nothing is worth dining in the sunset on this terrace. As for the restaurant seasonal menu, Henrique Aguzzoli offers its local flowers with Léman Féra fish Ballotine and wild mushrooms, or a blind baked Léman Féra fish with Savagnin wine flavoured butter, or a just lightly fried calf sweetbread with apple and morels gravy as well. Desserts are in the same spirit with a Choco-Bon and its Madagascar Vanilla ice cream. Make sure you book the best seat to seize the most beautiful flowers! »
Le Petit Futé 2019
« Gourmets and lovers of history, this place is meant for you! At the heart of the medieval pedestrian town, this traditional inn offers plenteous and tasty dishes, cooked with care and generosity. Take your pick of a green asparagus and smoked Léman féra fish charlotte, a Léman féra fish rillettes stuffing, a rabbit and smoked bacon ballotine flavoured with Savagnin wine and stuffed with duck’s foie gras; Tradition Menu centring upon perch… No boredom for taste buds there ever. Not to mention? the magnificent panoramic terrace over the Léman Lake where you may sit down to table on summer evenings. »
