Kaigan im Beau-Rivage Palace

The "Beau-Rivage Palace" hotel fully deserves its name, as it really is an impressive palace. There are several restaurants on the first floor with a view of the garden and a large terrace; today we are dining in the "Kaigan". In the hotel's Japanese restaurant, we receive an extremely friendly welcome from our friendly host and are shown to the bar. Here we enjoy our lunch with a view of the teppanyaki grill. The host brings us the menu, we put our trust in him and let him put together a selection of dishes. We are soon served a well-seasoned tuna tartare, fine flambéed salmon slices and crispy fried rice squares with tuna inspired by the famous "Nobu" restaurant chain. The menu continues with a selection of sushi made from perfectly seasoned rice and fish of the highest quality. This is served at the table with grated Japanese wasabi root, which has little to do with the traditional bright green paste. The suggested glass of Petite Arvine goes perfectly with it - we almost opted for sake instead, of which there is also a good selection. Now we just have to order something from the teppanyaki grill in front of us. We opt for the succulent Iberian pork secreto, served with wonderfully crunchy vegetables. We also enjoy the house dessert "Flamed Yukimi", a flambéed mochi filled with ice cream and strawberry compote. We leave the "Kaigan" very satisfied and very full in the early afternoon.

The Kaigan at the Beau-Rivage Palace celebrates Japanese cuisine: sushi à la minute, teppanyaki, freshly grilled on a steel plate, and creative dishes in a quiet, exotic atmosphere. Served with sakes, teas or signature cocktails, both indoors and on the summer terrace by the lake.
