Edelweiss: an homage to alpine classics

A few kilometres from Luxembourg City, Edelweiss extends a warm welcome reminiscent of traditional Swiss mountain chalets. Here, cheese is much more than just an ingredient: it is an invitation to discover a culture with a wealth of flavours and traditions.

Fondue is the iconic specialty of this establishment. Each variation has been imagined with the aim of offering an authentic experience:

• Half-and-Half Fondue: A subtle mix of gruyère and vacherin fribourgeois, combined with dry white wine and a touch of kirsch. This dish is the embodiment of Swiss tradition.
• Smoked Cheese Fondue: An audacious and modern variant, where the subtle smokiness of the cheese adds a unique depth.
• Made to Order Fondue: Diners can select their own mix, choosing from a selection of Alpine and seasonal cheeses.

Every dish is served with freshly baked bread, crunchy vegetables, and fondant potatoes. Mixed charcuterie platters are also available, adding another mouth-watering dimension to this gourmet experience. The Edelweiss philosophy is about sharing good times around the table, where every dish is a celebration.

La Cave à Manger: a refined approach to cheese

At the heart of Luxembourg, La Cave à Manger is known for turning cheese into a fine-dining experience. Part restaurant, part wine cellar, part cheese shop, this place is a foodie’s paradise.

The roast camembert is a work of art. Cooked in its wooden box, it achieves a perfect balance between a lightly golden crust and a runny centre. A drizzle of artisanal honey brings a delicate sweetness, perfectly balanced by the aromatic freshness of thyme. Every mouthful offers an explosion of texture and flavour.

You'll also find an extensive range of cheeses aged on site, served alongside wines selected to complement each variety. The restaurant’s philosophy is all about exploring different flavours, with a menu that changes with the seasons.

Brasserie du Cercle : the croque-monsieur reinvented

In the heart of Luxembourg, La Brasserie du Cercle revisits the croque-monsieur, that classic of French bistrots. Not content with a traditional version, this restaurant serves a modern and sophisticated interpretation of this iconic toastie.

A thick layer of aged Comté and a rich, creamy béchamel sit atop a slice of artisanal bread, toasted golden with butter. The croque-monsieur is oven-baked for a combination of crispy and melt-in-your-mouth textures, while a touch of whole-grain mustard adds a subtle kick. It is served with homemade pickles and a fresh, crunchy salad for a perfect balance of flavours.

This isn’t just any croque-monsieur – it’s a carefully curated culinary experience, with each ingredient selected to deliver something special.

Come à la maison : an homage to Italy

At Come à la Maison, enjoy a taste of Italy with dishes that showcase the finest Italian cheeses. Famous for its warm welcome and authentic dishes, the restaurant combines tradition with innovation.

The lasagne with truffles and three cheeses is one of their star dishes. Sheets of fresh pasta, prepared daily, are layered between a rich béchamel, finely aged Parmesan, smooth ricotta, and melted mozzarella. Each layer is delicately seasoned with black truffle, adding a luxurious dimension to this comforting dish.

But the experience doesn't stop there. From the risotto with gorgonzola and caramelised walnuts to the white pizza with creamy burrata, each dish showcases a love for outstanding ingredients.
