Sunny side up

Le Côté Jardin

Set your alarm: this is a breakfast worth getting up for.  

Admire the views of Lake Geneva as you’re brought a cup of freshly brewed coffee. But don’t get too settled: the gourmet buffet is calling.  

At the hot cooking station, we’ll make eggs any way you wish while you help yourself to crisp bacon, sauteed mushrooms and crunchy hash browns.  

And that’s just the first visit. Come back for the cured meats, aged cheeses, fragrant fresh breads, pastries and cakes. Then again – after all, there are still the delicate yoghurt pots heaped with sweet compote, a rainbow of fresh fruit, muesli and granola to try, all washed down with freshly squeezed orange juice.  

We wouldn’t be at all surprised if breakfast became a three-course affair.

  • Daily, 7:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.
  • Sunday Brunch, 12:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.

What's on offer in Le Côté Jardin

Sunday rhythm

The Brunch

The Lausanne Palace brunch is what lazy Sunday afternoons were made for.

After a leisurely long lie, make your way to Le Côté Jardin for a gourmet graze. Starting at a (very civilised) 12:30 p.m., this three-hour brunch event is something of a local legend.

You’ll find a cornucopia of flavour, colour and variety awaits your plate: comfort food fresh from the oven, succulent meats, local cheeses, crisp pastries and a parade of beguiling desserts to lead you astray.

A chilled glass of champagne is a fitting prelude to proceedings – just try to keep a level head as you survey the buffet. This is, after all, a marathon, not a sprint.
