Restaurant Buljes
Local and seasonal, with a modern twist – that’s the simple
concept at the heart of Restaurant Buljes, a charming timber-clad
bistro located along the Gemmi Pass in Leukerbad and reachable only
by foot. Hikers can reward their efforts with raclette served on a
hot stone, regional game dished up on wooden chopping boards and,
depending on the time of year, locally grown asparagus. As an added
bonus, the wine is sourced from the surrounding vineyards.

Brasserie des Cheminots
This stunning restaurant – a former railway
pub-turned-multi-award-winning gourmet retreat in the holiday
resort of Brig Simplon – is often lauded as being the best in town.
Dine inside the old-school brasserie or enjoy your meal on the
sun-drenched Le Jardin des Cheminots terrace during the summer
months. Either way, expect elegantly presented traditional French
cuisine and high-rated service that will take you back to a bygone
era.
