We love the Swiss Hutte in the winter. Cozy, and friendly. The food is consistently good, and I happen to love going back to my roots and eating some spaetzle!! To me, this is real comfort food. Try their beef stroganoff for an old fashioned yum-fest….with the spaetzle, of course. Their desserts tend not to be my taste, as of my last try, but some seem to love them.

There’s something literally fantastic about the Swiss Hutte, a half-timber 19th-century farmhouse that’s been in continuous operation as an inn for over fifty years. Tucked in a hidden valley amid gardens at the foot of Catamount ski slope, it feels half-a-world and at least half-a-lifetime away.  The menu is filled with old-fashioned classics—salmon a la Florentine, beef with bernaise, wienerschnitzel ($28 - $34)—that Zurich-born owner-chef Gert Alpert does to such perfection, you’ll leave in a delusional glow about the good old days. (Trust me, unless you grew up in Europe, the restaurants your parents took you to were not this good.) In summer, opt for the flowery patio; in winter, (no kidding) cheese fondue by the fire?
