We were staying in Lausanne and we took the regional train to Rivaz. The Lavaux Vinorama is about a…read more10-minute walk from the train station along the busy road in the direction of Lausanne (it is well marked by signs). You can either cross the busy road or take the steps down from the parking area to the tunnel under the road. You can either sample your choice of wines by the glass from the wine list or you can buy a sampler package and they choose the wines. We had the Chasellas package which included 3 whites and the Discovery which included 3 whites and the Plant Robert (only place this grape is planted) red. You can either get each wine one at a time or all at once. There is also a movie about the wine which is shown in English and French. The guy who worked there was very friendly and knowledgeable without being "wine snobby."

You may find access to individual winemaker, like Marie-Thérèse Chappaz. The Co-op Provin has a wine shop in town. For tasting AND shopping, Le Verre à Pied is the most convenient. Convenient opening times. Needed a bottle of wine Sunday evening, we came here. Extensive collection, reasonable price. Wanted an apéro on Christmas Eve, they were open. Various food items available to pair with tasting. More often than not, this place is full with locals. We come here every time we are in town. Receptions by the personnel vary. Know your preference, so you will not feel overwhelmed by varieties. Learn a few names of local grape varieties, Humagne Rouge, Petit Arvine, Cornalin or Païen. Stay open-minded. Don't restrict your choice to prize-winners. Some young people that work there are comfortable conversing in a foreign language. Basically, trust your taste buds.

When we entered the restaurant, there was a smell of old cheese not cleaned properly from the caquelons, burners or other dishes what should indeed - have been a clear warning for us. We did NOT have Fondue what many tourists eat here but the "Special" of the day - soup or salad as a starter, turkey with risotto on a tomato sauce. The soup and salad where good, the main course too although the presentation of the course was a little unusual - everything was kind of "swimming" in the risotto and the turkey was so cooked you did not need a knife but rather a soup spoon which was also offered unsolicited. It tased good and we were full very easily. Long story short - the food was tasty but we both had belly cramps half an hour later when we were back at the hotel.
