GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – A group of Geneva’s top restaurants have a treat in store for lovers of fine food and wine who happily realize that the free concerts at the Geneva Festival leave them with something to spend the week after the city’s big summer party ends.

“Restaurant Week” from 15-20 August will see haute cuisine meals for CHF50 for two courses, one of which is dessert plus amuse-bouche and coffee, or three courses, amuse-bouche and coffee for CHF65 each, prices well below what diners usually pay.

The Restaurant Week idea for Geneva began with Chat-Botté, the Michelin-starred restaurant at Hotel Beau-Rivage, in February.

It was such a success with the public that two others have joined in what they hope will become a growing, annual Geneva event: Rasoi at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel and the Windows at Hôtel d’Angleterre.
