Michel Roth - Bayview

September 20th 2014

Wow, shortly after the landing in Geneva, what good start to have lunch in front of the Lake Geneva, next to the former League of Nations building!

Now that Michel Roth has left the Ritz and taken over all food business at the President Wilson, it was worth a try. Michel Who, you say?  Michel Roth is the former chef from the Ritz and more importantly one of the very few chefs to have received the two most prestigious prizes of Meilleur Ouvrier de France and Bocuse d'Or. Nothing less!

The cuisine was generous and tasteful. Some accidentally dry spherified pearls came with the appetizers (not pictured below). I am very afraid that this unmastered technique might be another case which adversely advocates against the molecular cuisine in the public opinion. That said, this small unfulfillment didn't affect the rest of the meal which was globally brilliant.
The lunch deal is a steal especially in Geneva at the President Wilson Hotel among Bentleys and Rolls Royces!
