Brasserie Uno Zermatt in Gault Millau guide

 

Brasserie Uno Gault Millau

Brasserie Uno Gault Millau: We are pleased to be included in the Zermatt section of Gault Millau POP!

For our friends and guests from all around the world, Gault & Millau is a French restaurant guide started in the 1960s by two restaurant critics, Henri Gault and Christian Millau. Although they started off reviewing restaurants only in France, the Gault Millau restaurant standard is now recognised all over the world. This includes countries from Australia to Austria, Canada to Russia, Israel to Switzerland. The closest comparison is the Michelin Guide, although Gault Millau give points rather than stars. To be included in their POP section is a wonderful surprise for us. Considering that Brasserie Uno has only been open for just less than one year, we are really happy that Gault Millau, and people from all around the world, are discovering our little restaurant in the Swiss Alps!

Piemonte Weekend at Brasserie Uno Zermatt

 

We’re so excited to present our Piemonte Weekend special event, coming up on November 15th & 16th! Guest chef Davide Rapaglio, a Piemonte native and chef at Sonnmatten in Zermatt, will be sharing the Brasserie Uno Kitchen with our head chef Luis Romo to create a wonderful special menu full of Piemontese classic dishes! We will be serving à la carte alongside a special Degustation Menu for those who want to try everything!

Right now, the owner, Andreas Alm, is in Piemonte with our head chef, Luis Romo, and Davide, sourcing all the wonderful Piemontese products they’ll use to create the special blackboard menu of delicious dishes! We want to create the most authentic experience possible for our guests, which is why our chefs personally wanted to go to the region and hand select the ingredients and produce they want to use to create all the fresh, delicious dishes that will be on the blackboard on Friday and Saturday nights!

Luis and Andreas set off from Zermatt yesterday morning to arrive at the small town of Navarro in the Piemonte region of Italy to enjoy a special lunch prepared by Davide, who was already in Piemonte, at his childhood farm! The boys all enjoyed a delicious meal that was a taste of things to come 🙂 After finishing their wonderful lunch, they boys all set off for Beccaria Cellars, a small vineyard in Ozzano Monferato, where they enjoyed a wine tasting with the owners Silvia and Laura. A family-run business on a UNESCO heritage site, the vineyard is spectacularly beautiful and it was a pleasure to select a few wines to accompany the dishes for the Brasserie Uno Piemonte Weekend special event.

Today the boys are in Alba, the white-truffle capital of the world, looking for white truffles to bring back to Zermatt especially for the special event! It’s a hard life 🙂

It’s going to be a really special event with two great chefs cooking incredible Piemonte food for our lucky customers! You can book a table online by clicking the button below 🙂

See you at the Piemonte Weekend special event soon!

Chef life: What our chef Mark does in his time off

What to do in Zermatt in summer

For those lucky enough to live and work in our beautiful ski resort high in the Swiss Alps, it’s a charmed life: you have incredible skiing in the winter and extreme hiking, biking, climbing and glacier snowboarding in the summer, all under the majestic gaze of the the iconic Matterhorn mountain. We chat to our chef Mark Ruiz Kissling, a Swiss-Spanish Barcelona native who for 4 seasons has called Zermatt home, on what he likes to do when he’s not cooking delicious dishes in the Brasserie Uno kitchen.

Our chef, Mark Ruiz Kissling

What do you enjoy doing when you’re not at work?

Most of the time I like to go biking on my breaks because I can just get on my bike and go and it’s fast to get up and down the mountain. On my days off, I like to go snowboarding or climbing. For me, biking on my breaks is a way for me to be in nature and be by myself – it’s kind of like my meditation. I can chill in a field, take in some sun. I like doing extreme sports because it gives me energy and afterwards I feel powerful because I feel like I’ve done something.

Apéro in Zermatt: UPDATED FOR WINTER 2019

Apéro in Zermatt: As of winter 2019, Brasserie Uno will no longer be open for lunch or apero, Instead, we are open 5 nights a week for dinner only. This may change in the future. Stay tuned!

Apéro and afternoon tea is a wonderful thing! It’s that lovely time of day when you can relax over a a smooth, rich coffee, hot cup of delicious tea or even a steaming cup of gluhwein (also known as mulled wine). We decided to open at 3pm so we could offer our guests the chance to enjoy a quieter type of apéro in Zermatt. At Brasserie Uno, you can sit down in our cosy restaurant and enjoy the surroundings along with a hot drink, a slice of cake, a delicious biscuit or even some savoury snacks.

CAKES & SWEET TREATS

Yesterday the owner, Andreas, and our chef Louise baked these beautiful little apple spiced tea cakes, which we dusted with icing sugar. As you can see, we had to try one (yum) and honestly, you’d never know they were vegan. Honestly, they were delicious! We aim to have at least one vegan snack available so everyone can enjoy their afternoon tea. Our other chef, Luis, also made a yummy spice mix and then coated a beautiful selection of pecans, cashews, almonds and sunflower seeds in it and lightly roasted the lot. They are incredible – not too spicy and totally addictive!

 

WE TRY TO HAVE VEGAN AND VEGETARIAN OPTIONS FOR OUR APERO AND AFTERNOON TEA, WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE A SELECTION OF THINGS LIKE VEGAN APPLE CAKE, SPICE-COATED NUTS AND SWEDISH CHOCOLATE BALLS FOR OUR CUSTOMERS TO ENJOY

New restaurant in Zermatt

It’s been one week since we opened our new restaurant here in Zermatt village, at Kirchstrasse 38 right near the bridge just down from Church Square, and we are thrilled with the fantastic feedback and wonderful comments on both the food and the restaurant interior from happy customers.

The aim of the restaurant is to provide something different in Zermatt for diners looking for international flavours, unusual meats, alternative cuts of meat, vegetarian dishes, vegan cuisine, gluten-free meals and of course delicious food using regional and seasonal produce. That’s why our printed menu is small and our blackboard menu is large, in order to bring you only the freshest dishes made from whatever is seasonal at that very moment. Our chefs take great pride in sourcing only the highest quality ingredients from top local and regional producers and we aim to bring inventive new flavours to our ever-changing blackboard of delicious dishes. And we also hope that our guests will embrace the holiday mood and sit back and enjoy the experience of eating at our restaurant – because taking time and enjoying the evening is what being on holiday is all about!

We intend for our blog to showcase not only the fresh, delicious dishes that our chefs create in our collaborative kitchen, but we also hope to provide a small window into life in our beautiful mountain home. To get the latest news, ideas, recipes, dishes, Zermatt pictures and more, be sure to sign up to our newsletter by providing your email address in the box below. And please feel free to follow us on Instagram or over on our other social platform, Facebook 🙂 We look forward to welcoming you to our cosy little Zermatt Village restaurant and hope to see you soon!

And a shout out to all the friends and family who generously gave their time and support to help us open in time for the winter season – we love you all and couldn’t have done it without you. You know who you are 🙂

Love from the Brasserie Uno team
