    Thanks to the first review of this business, we made our first discovery of double cream (let it be…read moreknown that we then had double cream 7 times in three days- wow, I know). Cafe le Bonnet Rouge is ideal for a quick lunch given that the seating isn't the most comfortable hanging over an edge on the sidewalk. A few takeaways from our visit: the best salad in town - topped with alfalfa greens- we literally had a salad at almost all of the Gruyeres restaurants ha! Something has to balance out all of that cheese consumption. The double cream here is thicker than the others we experienced and was topped with beautiful fresh raspberries. My husband enjoyed his simple hand sandwich in baguette with small pickles and mustard. Note that they are not open in the morning hours. Located two doors down from the Gruyeres tourism office.

    in the mornings and evenings, Gruyères is a quiet old town nestled between beautiful mountains…read more It's a peaceful place to sit down and have most delicious breakfast before you go on exploring... We had a long day ahead of us, so proper breakfast is always good idea - especially when "proper" here means you also get glass of wine or beer - yes, with your breakfast. Coffee? Nonsense. Order glass of wine. Since Gruyères is close to border with France, and French is spoken here more than any other languages, food is influenced by French as well. So we have to order crêpes - of course! (I mean, I cannot resist good crêpe, ever) The crêpe itself is crispy on edges, soft towards center, filled with most delicious creamy swiss chocolate, topped with chocolate shavings - oh, so, sooooo good. But real star of the show was double cream - local specialty I have no seen anywhere else on my travels. This luxurious, not-too-sweet, rich, buttery, silky, creamy & dreamy treat that is out of this world - and probably best thing you ever tasted. Topped with berries, it is beautiful to look at as well, shiny peaks of goodness. You gotta try this one - no excuses!
