Eating & drinking
Geneva has a well-earned reputation as a gourmet city. The cuisine is strongly influenced by French and Italian cuisine and even the most discerning visitor will find a restaurant here that is to his/her taste. You can also enjoy local fish delicacies here from Lake Geneva, such as filet de perches and filet de féras, as well as traditional dishes such as cheese fondue and raclette, which are best accompanied by the local Genevan wines.
