"In the centre of the village, near the bell tower, this country house champions tradition in all its glory. Beneath the vaulted ceiling of the dining room, you will be served seasonal French cuisine with a choice of menus and courses. Grégory Halgand conjures up creative dishes such as asparagus, grapefruit and pistachio or Brittany lobster, red beetroot, blackberries and fish bisque. The dessert lineup is the work of Audrey Feutren-Halgand, who also respects the seasons, with delicacies such as a medley of apricots (stewed, jellied and grilled), flanked by a frothy coconut mousse. Artwork (paintings and sculptures) graces the interior, and there is a pleasant outdoor patio for a final alfresco flourish. The ‘café’ offers a brasserie-style menu and a more casual vibe." - Michelin Inspector
"In Crissier's former town hall, Chef Franck Giovannini oversees an impressive team of 25 chefs." - Le Guide MICHELIN
"Just a short distance from Lausanne, this restaurant, referred to simply as "Crissier" by its regular patrons, has a long and illustrious history. Since Frédy Girardet was first awarded three MICHELIN stars in 1975, the Restaurant de l'Hôtel de Ville has showcased the talents of a series of great chefs, including Philippe Rochat, Benoît Violier… and now Franck Giovannini, who was second-in-command here for many years. At the head of a sizable kitchen team, he crafts high-quality dishes, always taking care to pay homage to culinary tradition, in keeping with his predecessors. Beautifully balanced and skilfully executed dishes to be savoured in elegant dining rooms (one of which is reserved for smokers). Expert wine recommendations." - Michelin Inspector
