  • The Best Restaurants and Hotels
    ★★★ THE BEST RESTAURANTS AND HOTELS EDITION ★★★ Robbe & Berking Restaurant Guide 2017 ★★★ Dear Friends of Fine Cuisine, Delicious Food and Tables Set in Style, This 10th anniversary edition of our restaurant guide is bursting with 234 culinary hotspots featuring 143 Michelin stars. All the eateries listed have one thing in common: their outstanding performance. The very best produce and ingredients are prepared with meticulous attention to detail here by creative chefs with incredible fl air who really love their job. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t make it onto this prestigious list. And speaking of love, there’s another thing that sets these restaurants apart: real love – real silver. After all, the trappings and the atmosphere also play an important role in the dining experience. Even the greatest masterpiece needs a stage to unveil its full effect. Nowadays, it seems there’s a constant pressure for everything to become quicker, more convenient and easier all the time. All the more comforting, then, to know that these restaurants and the people behind them exist. Dine with the best and enjoy yourself. Yours, Oliver Berking 2 3 Alta Alta is a veritable classic amongst the Moderns. Despite its somewhat austere appearance, this range of cutlery conveys an almost sensuous feeling of pure pleasure for the eye and also for the hands. The reason is that its chiselled fi nish allows us to experience the beauty of the silver, there is no unneces- sary ornamentation to distract our gaze away from the clarity of the lines. With its simplistic beauty and its taut silhouette, Alta makes us feel that this is the one and only shape that is justifi ed in providing the basic pattern for every contemporary style of cutlery today.

  • Buon Appetito: Lake Como Comes to the Swiss Alps
    BUON APPETITO: LAKE COMO COMES TO THE SWISS ALPS From 11th- to 21th February the Alpina Gstaad Welcomes Chefs from Grand Hotel Tremezzo GSTAAD, Switzerland, January 26, 2016 – Next month, guests at The Alpina Gstaad, the newest luxury hotel to open in the Swiss Alpine village in 100 years, will enjoy some special culinary pleasures. As part of a partnership with the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, the Alpina Gstaad set in the heart of Bernese Alps, will welcome four chefs from the award-winning five star property based on the pictoresque Lake Como. Executive Chef of Grand Hotel Tremezzo Osvaldo Presazzi with two Chefs de Partie of his brigade, Davide Somaschini and Roberto Nese and the Chef Antonio Ghilardi from the Marchesino Restaurant will prepare dishes from the restaurants of this five-star property set on the shores of Lake Como. A culinary advisor to the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, the celebrated Gualtiero Marchesi has been cooking alongside Chef Presazzi. Maestro Marchesi, was the first Italian chef and the first non-French chef to receive three Michelin stars. Guests at The Alpina Gstaad may choose the six-course Menu Degustazione or opt for ordering a la carte among dishes such as salad of scallops, ginger and pink pepper, or one of the signature dishes signed by Gualtiero Marchesi, saffron risotto with gold leaf and filet of veal Rossini Gualtiero Marchesi style. As a small hotel, it is important for us to be creative in our partnerships," said, Dennis Eenhuis, The Alpina Gstaad's Director of Sales & Marketing. "We have similar values and the same high standards," Eenhuis explained.

  • Gstaad, Switzerland
    GSTAAD, SWITZERLAND Consider living in a vast alpine garden in summer or a glistening fairytale of white wonder in the winter. Gstaad is all that – once described by Sound of Music star Julie Andrews as “the last paradise in a crazy world.” Such sounds still ring true as old wealth given to such romantic notions as horse-drawn carriages clopping down cobbled streets as visitors pass in their furs and finery mix with a more grounded populace of happy-go-lucky youth in ski gear and affordable fashions. They say Gstaad has about 3,000 residents and just as many cows. There are endless alpine walking paths along wildflower vistas that bring Heidi to mind. In winter ski mountains buzz with some 60 ski lifts and cable cars ferry visitors into magnificent heights. Gstaad, in the Bernese Oberland region of the Swiss Alps, is well known to celebrities and royalty as a protected playground. For decades it was the place to go for well-disguised paparazzi as it was known as a gathering spot for such icons as Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Roman Polanski, Formula1 star Bernie Ecclestone, fashion designer Valentino, Madonna, Anne Hathaway, Salma Hayek and a cavalcade of Bollywood faves. But the locals maintain, "People go to St. Moritz to be seen, and to Gstaad to enjoy themselves." Location of Gstaad On a map, you will find Gstaad in the southwest region of Switzerland, a two- to three- hour drive from Geneva or Zurich on the boundary between the Bernese Oberland and the Vaud Alpes. Gstaad is a walking village, car-free in its charm and crowded with precious weathered-wood chalets.

  • The Peace Conference of Lausanne (1922-1923)
    Bern 1923 - 2008 With the kind support of: Mrs Ionna Ertegiin Mrs Selma Goksel Tiirkiye I~ Bankasi Anadolu Ajans1 Thanks to: Onur Ozc;:eri (Research, text and layout) Agathon Aerni (research) Tuluy Tanc;: (editing) © Embassy of Turkey, Bern 85 years of representation of the Republic of Turkey in Switzerland (1923-2008) The Embassy of the Republic of Turkey, Bern ~u6tic offJ'urk,ey rrfie (Jlresufent It is no coincidence that the Republic of Turkey purchased its first Embassy premises abroad, in Switzerland's capital, Bern, to establish the seat of its diplomatic representation. The negotiation of a peace treaty and its successful outcome took the shape of the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923. The Treaty of Lausanne left an indelible mark in our memory. The aspiration of the Turkish nation to live as a free and independent people is thus anchored in Switzerland, a land that earned the reputation for fairness, equity and justice. The subsequent adoption in 1926 of a Civil Code based on the Swiss example, the Montreux Convention negotiated in 1936 in Switzerland giving full sovereignty on the Turkish Straits and other events have solidified this perception. I am therefore particularly pleased that the roots of the friendship bonds between Turkey and Switzerland and the main events associating Switzerland to Turkey have been compiled in a book. The book also illustrates the reciprocal attention and like minded approaches of both Turkey and Switzerland to further promote bilateral relations between two democracies and to facilitate the realization of aspirations of peace. I would like to express my thanks to the President of the Swiss Confederation, His Excellency Pascal Couchepin and to all who have contributed to the realization of this book.
