Hotel Blausee Restaurant

In our first visit to Blausee Lake, we had lunch at the Restaurant Blausee Hotel. I have to say that wasn’t good – what surprises me a lot.

Despite the high prices for the main courses, around Fr.35/40, I’ve ordered a fish, and this was extremely salty. The service was slow, and no one came for asking how the food was, standard practice in Switzerland. I had to eat; I had no choice.

For my son, I’ve ordered a Kids Menu, also on the highest border of usually prices in Switzerland, Fr.15. The Kids portion was so small that my son cried when the food was finish; my two years old was still very hungry. For him, I’ve ordered some more fish, and the Restaurant offered the Kids Menu for free.

We haven’t a good experience at the Hotel Blausee, but we ate with a view =) Next time, no doubt I will take a picnic and some sausages with me!

Events at Blausee Lake

Every year in June, there is an Open-Air Cinema at the Blausee. It should be amazing!
