The Best Restaurants in Freiburg
Oh yes, someone's really in the mood! Victor Moriez is the new head chef at "Le Pérolles" right next to Fribourg train station. After years at the "Restaurant de l'Hôtel de Ville" in Crissier, the "Valrose" in Rougemont and the "Alpina Gstaad", he now has the chance to show what he can do. The full menu comprises nine courses, the best snack beforehand is the crispy, intense AOP tartelette with three Fribourg originals: Vacherin, Gruyère and Jambon de la Borne. The start of the menu: Scallop, bitter orange, marigold. He serves the muscle of the scallop in a tempura wrap! Then the chef delights us with a black truffle flan, served with a rocket and truffle puree, young rocket sprouts and pickled olives, as well as an olive and mushroom tapenade. The sauce: a cuvée of mushroom jus, truffle cream and rocket oil. To clean the plate at the end, there is a bao bun filled with rocket puree. Great class. The wine goes perfectly with it: L'Art-Vine by Alex Stauffer - an elegant Valais Petite Arvine. Pike-perch, lobster, chicken "Patte Noir", but perhaps the best course is vegetarian: Moriez fills shallots baked on salt with a leek puree and a brunoise of raw potato, shallot and leek greens. It is accompanied by deep-fried leek greens, potato fondant, burnt leek and black garlic. Licorice notes in veggie jus. The simplest ingredients - everything brought out. A dish that you would expect to find at the veggie temple "Magdalena". Unsurprisingly, host Julien Ayer, son of long-time "Pérolles" chef Pierrot Ayer, says: "My father was already there for dinner and was very happy."
In a patrician house above the old town of Fribourg, the chef stages a new menu every month - "Idylle" (four courses) or "ÉMOTION" (six courses). The dishes are based on a small number of carefully selected ingredients, which are all the more powerful in terms of flavour.
The restaurant in Fribourg's old town is a gem. In this beautiful location, Frédérik Kondratowicz serves generous, seasonal cuisine that also has plenty to offer vegetarians. The composition of flavours and textures is always surprising.
In the historic centre of Fribourg, La Cène offers Moroccan-influenced cuisine with recognition value. The "Inspiration de la Semaine" lunch menu offers variety at a fair price, while the "Éclosion des Sens" menu changes every month in the evening - balanced and sensual.
In the beautiful old town of Freiburg, this is the place to meet for a cosy get-together in a dignified atmosphere. No-frills southern Italian cuisine is served, along with a few specialities from other regions of the Belpaese. The friendly staff look after their guests.
Colours, textures, flavours. The seasonal cuisine creates a harmonious triad with its menu compositions. The vegetarian gardener's menu is superb: Cleverly prepared vegetables and cheese take centre stage here. Very fairly priced wine list.
When beer thirst meets hunger, you're in good hands here. The selection of barley beers is phenomenal. Small or large savoury dishes are served to go with each beer. The atmosphere is uncomplicated and warm.
The Café du Gothard is an original from the very beginning. As soon as you enter the restaurant, it is clear that cheese specialities set the tone. Whether it's a creamy Vacherin fondue, crispy rösti or tête de veau, the regional gastronomic tradition lives on here.
Patron Philippe Roschy has undergone rigorous training and knows how gastronomy works. Just like at Boulevard 39, where you can make an impression with frites maison, Tournedos Rossini or meringues with double cream. But the number one attraction remains the entrecôte.
More than just a restaurant - but unfortunately only for a few months during the warmer months of the year. The cultural project and integration business is an integral part of Freiburg's catering scene. Some come for a glass of Chasselas or iced tea, others praise the tartare.
