Switzerland, officially the Swiss Confederation, is a country situated in western, central, and southern Europe. It consists of 26 cantons, and the city of Bern is the seat of the federal authorities. The sovereign state is a federal republic bordered by Italy to the south, France to the west, Germany to the north, and Austria and Liechtenstein to the east. Switzerland is a landlocked country geographically divided between the Alps, the Swiss Plateau and the Jura. While the Alps occupy the greater part of the territory, the Swiss population is concentrated mostly on the plateau, where the largest cities are to be found: among them are Zürich and Geneva.

The cuisine of Switzerland is multifaceted. While some dishes such as fondue, raclette or rösti are omnipresent through the country, each region developed its own gastronomy according to the differences of climate and languages. Traditional Swiss cuisine uses ingredients similar to those in other European countries, as well as unique dairy products and cheeses such as Gruyère or Emmental, produced in the valleys of Gruyères and Emmental. Chocolate has been made in Switzerland since the 18th century but it gained its reputation at the end of the 19th century with the invention of modern techniques such as conching and tempering which enabled its production on a high quality level.

Among the dishes to enjoy at this home style Swiss Fest will be:
  • Raclette - Alpine cheese, served melted ;
  • Cheese Fondue - blend of melted cheese served in a communal pot;
  • Potatoes - small firm potatoes;
  • Bratwurst - grilled sausage made from minced veal and pork;
  • A variety of Swiss Chocolates
