Tacky
Monday, November 9, 2009
Among other things, Switzerland is known for its top notch hotel schools and excellent restaurants, so why, oh why, must most Swiss restaurants located abroad look so abysmally tacky? Inevitably, there has to be this decrepit chalet look with overly ornate kitschy decorations. It’s a miracle they don’t expect patrons to wear cowbells... The look of this place in Cannes is enough to ensure that I will never dine there; aside from the fact that they appear to equate “Swiss” with cheese (which I can’t eat), the décor would surely prevent me from enjoying the food even if it were as good as might befit a restaurant that is mondialement connu (known the world over) according to the claims made on its web site. Go ahead, check it out; you’ll be able to admire the stunning inside, too.
