L'Étang du Moulin

Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin

€€€€

In summer, you may end up in this cosy chalet at the foot of the mountains by a pond, after a daylong hike through the lovely Jura forests, having worked up a healthy appetite. In winter, kick off your snowshoes and admire the Christmas carol picture. The menu features traditional French cuisine and Jacques Barnachon frequently shines the spotlight on the region, with game in the autumn and prime produce (John-Dory, lobster, fillet of Charolais beef). Jacques is also a mushroom specialist, notably the morel, which is the star of his signature ragoût. Wood dominates in the dining room, which al

Maison Wenger

Modern French, Seasonal Cuisine · ★★ Michelin

€€€€

In his elegant lair, owner-chef Jérémy Desbraux quietly regales us with satisfying wholesome fare, crafted with textbook precision. Rather than fussy or contrived, everything smacks of crisp, legible regional flavours to the delight of discerning foodies. For example, the appetisers and petits fours use Swiss rice and local honey and the bread is made entirely from flour ground by a local mill. Even the table arts are a nod to the region from a bell jar that pays tribute to Tête de moine cheese to a huge watch case bearing the restaurant’s logo in honour of the local watchmaking tradition.

Aux Trois Amis

Country cooking · ★ Michelin

A narrow road leads up to this wonderful restaurant surrounded by vineyards and boasting a pleasantly shaded terrace overlooking Lake Biel – dining al fresco here is an absolute joy! Allow yourself to be pampered by the charming front-of-house team led by maître d' Cynthia Lauper as you savour the "Menu Surprise" conjured up by chef-patron Marc Joshua Engel. This is sophisticated cuisine imbued with creative accents, eg venison fillet with black garlic, asparagus and cherries. Alternatively, there are a handful of à la carte dishes. Your hostess and sommelier will gladly recommend fine wines –

Du Cerf

Classic French, Farm to table · ★ Michelin

€€€€

Set in the heart of the peaceful village of Sonceboz, this establishment is a culinary landmark in what is known as the Jura Arc and throughout Switzerland. The restaurant’s success is largely due to chef Jean-Marc Soldati, at the helm for many years now. Tradition is a serious business for this alumnus of Crissier, where he worked alongside Fredy Girardet and Philippe Rochat. Three surprise menus unveil a pedigree score, as spot on as it is suave, and drawn mainly from local and French ingredients and from the chef's own kitchen garden. The wine list features a selection of regional, Swiss an

Restaurant GERBER WYSS

Classic French, Regional Cuisine · ★ Michelin

€€€€

In the heart of Yverdon-les-Bains, the GERBER WYSS establishment is a fine dining eatery, a bakery-chocolaterie and a tearoom. The former’s distinctive style is founded on cryoconcentration, fermentation, fresh herbs and vegetables, in a bid to enhance Swiss produce. This virtuoso, veggie-centric technique is packed in emotion, precision and visual appeal. The eight-course Signature Menu immerses you in this universe with dishes such as poultry oyster meat, fermented shiitake water and Suchy hazelnuts. The terrace is perfect for an aperitif before dinner or snacks. A warm interior and stylish,

Table de Mary

Classic French · ★ Michelin

Since 2007, Maryline and Loïc Nozahic have been at the helm of this establishment in the upper reaches of Lake Neuchâtel, just a stone’s throw from Yverdon-les-Bains. A striking modern building with a flower-decked terrace and the Jura mountains on the horizon set the scene for a deftly crafted classical Gallic repertory, sprinkled with up-to-the-minute notes. Their four-course signature menu stars spot-on, legible cuisine made with premium produce: langoustine cooked at 62°C, serac cheese in bergamot-laced shortcrust pastry, salsa of line-caught hake, loin of veal stuffed with olives, upside-

Le Bon Accueil

Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin

This aptly named establishment (a warm welcome does await!) is an excellent option in the heart of the Haut-Doubs. For four generations, this inviting and comfortable chalet that is typical of the region has been practising the art of Jura-style hospitality. St Point Lake is across the road, Le Suchet mountain and Switzerland just beyond. Here, they put their heart and soul into providing good food that is an ode to the region. Chef Marc Faivre worked at Georges Blanc, Pierre Gagnaire and Maison Lameloise before returning to his homeland, where his fine and tasty cuisine delights diners: trout
