Graubünden’s culinary scene

Graubünden has a vibrant culinary scene. It unites the diversity of three languages and cultures that influence the region’s cuisine. Are you a lover of fine dining or do you prefer home-cooked fare? Graubünden has something for everyone. Enjoy a tasty fondue in a romantic mountainside cabin or reach for the stars – the density of top-notch restaurants and top-rated chefs is acclaimed far beyond Switzerland’s borders.

The roll-call of typical Graubünden specialities is long and includes capuns and pizzoccherie, originally from the Surselva and Valposchiavo valleys. You will find several variations of this traditional dish everywhere you go. Not to mention the hearty platters of air-dried beef – arguably the region’s most famous meat speciality – and spicy alp cheese. Enjoy these delicacies after a strenuous seminar, a day spent hiking or on the ski slopes, all washed down with an excellent Graubünden wine, for instance a Blauburgunder from Maienfeld.
