Hi there,

Looking for any culinary related suggestions in both Interlaken and Montreux. Restaurants, tours, items to pick up at the grocery store, chocolate, cheese – what have you!

Hi Rachel,

For Montreux check out Tourism Montreux for help: https://www.montreuxri viera.com/en/Z4763/gui ded-tours

a member last summer used the “be my guide” option and was very happy with it!

For Interlaken have you seen this site: https://www.outdoor-interlaken.ch/en/activ ity/34946/swiss-food-and-culture-tour

I think you’ll have an easier time finding food tours around Montreux typically. Very well known area for wine and cheese as well nearby.

If you can get to Grindelwald on a Saturday morning, this stall run by local women farmers selling their own produce might interest you:

Their own website is only in German, but Google Translate does a reasonable job of translating the gist of it.

http://www.maertfrauen-grindelwald.ch/

This page describes the types of products they sell:

Information about the women themselves is here:

http://www.maertfrauen-grindelwald.ch/über-uns/

For milk and cheese products from the region, there is also this store in Wengen, called Chäs-Gruebi:

On the Switzerland Tourism Events page, you can filter by location, date and category “Gastronomy” for other possibilities.

There is also the Swiss Tavolata, where women farmers offer fine dining on their own farms, though none are in the two locations you mentioned:

Not all farms are accessible by public transport, but many are, and information about transport is included in the information provided about each offer:
