Saint Moritz, Switzerland

The Experience
From Michelin Guide
If you happen to be in St Moritz in the winter season, then take advantage of the opportunity to dine at the stylish yet cosy restaurant of the Carlton Hotel, in its serene location overlooking the lake. During the winter months, a fantastic kitchen team serves up precise and light Italian cuisine that steers clear of fuss and frills. The focus lies squarely on the produce that goes into the dishes. Some of the brilliantly prepared specialties from the parent restaurant in Brusaporto, Lombardy, make an appearance, including, of course, the signature pasta dish, paccheri alla Vittorio, but also many fish dishes, such as crudo d'Amare, raw fish and shellfish. Plus, an excellent front-of-house team: confident, charming and classy!
