À Table

Geneva


A hip and nippy little number, this bar à pâtes (pasta bar) cooks delicious homemade pasta and, occasionally, risotto loaded with fresh, seasonal produce. Nothing is industrially produced and gluten-free eaters can dine well, too.

Eat at the bijou Place De-Grenus restaurant or on the move courtesy of two Piaggio food-trucks that roam the city to varying locations – if you spy one, you're in luck!
