€50

Le Grand Quai
Exclusive
(
Swissotel Métropole, 34
Quai Général-Guisan, tel: 022 318 3463
)
Presentation is
important at Le Grand Quai, where every dish is exquisitely
constructed. But this doesn't detract from the flavours
Geneva
and aromas of perfectly cooked pastas and (often locally
sourced) meats. Save some space for one of the fiendish,
generously proportioned desserts.

Lord Nelson Pub
(

Place du Molard, tel: 022 311 1100
)
While the interior is reminiscent of a typical English pub,
outside is a different story. On mild nights, this relaxed
haunt is thronging with workers and tourists alike, all
enjoying the home-brewed beers and wafer-thin
Flams
(
a
pizza-like Alsatian speciality).

Brimming with ethnic restaurants, shisha bars and cheap
hotels,

evokes the edgier parts of larger European
cities. By day it is a bustling neighbourhood with a wealth of
quirky shops to explore, selling everything from Persian rugs
to exotic fruit.

As one of the easiest-to-reach resorts from Geneva
Les Gets
is popular for day trips. When snow conditions
are good, the tree-lined pistes are picturesque and gentle,
while the town itself has many charming restaurants and
bars (
