    Dear Sonny. As a Swiss working in hospitality the prices you mentioned are upsetting me as well but you went to the Bürgenstock, literally the least Swiss place in Switzerland as it's owned by the Qatar Hospitality Fund. The prices shown in your video are absurde even for Switzerland but they do not represent our price structure in any way. You can have great meals for 20-30 dollars which are amazing and yes, that is still expensive, but not Bürgenstock like, where only rich snobs from Switzerland and other countries stay to brag about it. Enjoy your time in Switzerland and hopefully you find some other amazing meals in our diverse country.

      This needs to be top comment. Thank you for the context. No hard feelings to sonny, but this video is either a good example of a tourist trap or just whats wrong with swiss tourism in the biggest trap regions like lucerne and berne mountains (wengen & co.) - these things are not representative at all.

    The "salads" had the scissors next to them because they were meant for people to cut *a few chunks* off and lay it on their bread or whatever. It wasn't meant for one person to take the whole thing and take bites out of it. I'm actually surprised the rule-loving swiss people didn't interfere. 😅 Well, I guess they gave you the "he is American and did pay 70 bucks for a mediocre breakfast" - bonus. Switzerland is ridiculously expensive if you are from almost *ANY* other country. If everything is expensive (which it is in Switzerland) then the food must be as well.

    Hi! If you'd like to visit a country in Europe with more "special" food I'd suggest the North of Sweden, where the Sami people live. There is Palt (it,s not Sami, it comes from Piteå, but I've never seen it anywhere else) and there is moose meat and reindeer heart and stuff like that. And people eat there as part of their normal life (I ate it too). If you go in wintertime you can catch some northern lights.

    As a Swiss and yearlong subscriber to the main channel this video was barely watchable for me. In fact I didn't watch it completely so this comment will not do it justice. Anyhow: the hotel and food shown are so dummy expensive it hurts because it's portraying the luxury touristy side of our country. I don't like that side but I guess it's part of the system that a handful of rich people and companies get even richer by feeding into the narrative of that over the top exclusivity.
    There are fantastic hotels and restaurants in Switzerland with very good value, run by locals that are passionate and not motivated by high margins. Switzerland is expensive, yes. In general the cost of living is high which puts around 1/8 of Swiss people at risk to be poor (source: caritas). No way those people could or even want to afford eating at Bürgenstock once in their lifetime. Historically seen Switzerland used to be poor as a whole. Obviously it always had wealthy families but generally seen many Swiss people had to emigrate to other countries to escape poverty. What I'm trying to say is that I'd love a more authentic approach to Switzerland like we see in other videos. To be fair most of the other videos are over the top too, lol. But at least we see the local food culture and food niches. That would have been fun for me to watch as well. Switzerland has such fun traditions, and every little village has its quirks. You just need to explore them which is often surprisingly affordable.

      Yeah, it is expensive but not that expensive either, similar to major US cities. Expect like $40-80 per person for a regular restuaruant dinner (tax and tip included), maybe $100-150 if it is fancy. Hotels are around $100-300 for a 3-4 star, and open ended beyond that, but this place is a scam for tourists, usually you would at least get luxury treatment with excellent food. As with other places in the world try not to follow the biggest toruist traps, those usually offer the lowest value for your money.

    Yeah we have a bit of the same issue here in Denmark. Just because you pay a lot for the food it doesn't guarantee that it's good. In fact here in my city stuff like the best burger and best pizza - you get from one of the "cheaper" places. The whole fancy burger thing is HIGHLY overrated. I've tried maybe 2 or 3 burgers of the expensive kind here which were worth the price - but that was all because of some "special ingredient" - like a truffle burger which was perfectly balanced which has to be my number 1... but also cost around 100$ - so yeah - even here that's a "bit much" for a burger. LOL
    Next time - talk to a local and have them take you to the best places. Swiss food can be REALLY good - but they do have a tendency to focus more on the "fancy" than the "good", and a local would know what is actually worth it and what is not... and 70$ for a basic burger like that with a few hand fulls of fries is just unreasonable. Also that pasta should been 20 and not 43. That's insane!... and I'm not even gonna comment of the 3€ of asparagus being that expensive... Literally moronic.

The former is mostly made of coconut and simple egg white mix, while macarons is made of almond flour and egg white meringue (French, Italian, or Swiss). Both are also mind-blowingly delicious!
    On a negative note, European countries absolutely SUCK at making burgers. I've never had such bad burgers than when I've been there. They're underwhelming and simply just don't work. The bread, meat, condiments, etc. they just don't work.

      Macaroons are made with raw potato, and icing sugar, no eggs. You mix it until everything is thoroughly blended (don't use a blender) and slightly wet. Then you can mould it by hand, and leave to set in the fridge. Once set, dip each one in melted choc and roll in coconut. My mother was a chef, and we learned to cook by watching her xx

    The BEST part of your video was the glacier lake throw down! Swiss food (or should I say the food that you sampled) looks so mundane and vanilla. Take us back to Asia please and thank you!!!!

    Haven’t watched yet but I had älplermagronen while there, I hope to see it in the episode. Also went to the James Bond rotating restaurant and bought a ridiculously expensive branded burger too

    If you want the best burger in Switzerland, you should go to Inglewood in either Geneva or Lausanne.
