restaurant
Bains de Pâquis
The Pâquis public baths were built in 1872, and today this
cherished local hangout encompasses a hammam and sauna as well as a
community-run café that locals swear serves the best fondue
going.
restaurant
Café du Marché
Soak up Carouge’s unique French-Italian vibe at this beloved
local bistro on the large public square, where writers, artists and
designers tuck into the well-priced plats du jour (classics include
salmon en croûte, steak tartare, and slow-roasted lamb).
restaurant
Le Blanc Valet
For a taste of old-school Montmartre in the heart of
21st-century Geneva, head to Le Blanc Valet, run by a wine-obsessed
staff and soundtracked by Nineties electro and Seventies disco
classics. Don’t be surprised if drinkers morph into dancers by
11pm.
