La Table du Lausanne Palace

The restaurant of this lavish and long-standing luxury hotel is run by husband-and-wife team Franck Pelux and Sarah Benahmed. The chef's cuisine is expressive and intense: petits pois à la française meet melt-in-the-mouth gnocchi with caviar; spring delight of roast turbot meunière; pistachio soufflé. The silky smooth service, both charming and laid back, underscores this luxurious setting and magnificent views over the lake.
