Restaurant Denis Martin "Le Château"

On the street level of the Musée Historique de Vieux Vevey Cuisines: European, Continental

About

One of the most spectacular restaurants of Vevey occupies the street level of the town's oldest building -- a baronial villa built in 1599. Inside, a pair of dining rooms offer soaring vaults composed of stone, contemporary accessories, and a noteworthy collection of modern sculpture by well-known Swiss artist André Raboud. During clement weather a flower-studded outdoor terrace offers sweeping views over lawns and the nearby lake. Menu items change frequently, according to the inspiration of chef and owner Denis Martin, but two representative, consistently excellent specialties include duck liver served with apple chutney and spice bread, and line-caught sea bass with basil-flavored olive oil and sweet peppers. If you prefer to leave the composition of your meal to the experts, consider one of the fixed-price menus, the most elaborate of which is composed of 15 artfully presented minicourses.
