Dining out in Switzerland is one of the real highlights of any Swiss adventure, but for first-time travellers, it can also bring a few surprises - especially when it comes to Swiss dining etiquette. 

In this episode, I’m joined by local foodie Kristin Reinhard, to answer the most common questions about eating at Switzerland restaurants and to learn more about Swiss traditional foods like Fondue and Raclette.

Kristin shares practical tips about meal times, dinner reservations in Switzerland, ordering tap water, and the frequently asked question: “Is tipping expected in Switzerland?”

There are also suggestions for what to eat in Switzerland on a budget, how to enjoy the popular tradition of a Swiss brunch, and Kristin tells us about her new Swiss Food Map which features over 200 authentic, local-approved eateries you won’t find on most tourist lists.

Tune in for essential tips to help you dine out in Switzerland with confidence.

Happy travels,
Carolyn
