A MAGNIFICENT EXPERIENCE AT RESTAURANT FOCUS ATELIER
A magnificent experience at restaurant Focus Atelier, home at the majestic Park Hotel Vitznau, situated at the beautiful Lake Lucerne. At the helm, 2 Michelin Star chef Patrick Mahler.
Not only an eye for detail, but also the taste is spectacular! Breathtaking views, the perfect and attentive service makes this one of the most incredible places to visit.
We have visited this beautiful hotel and restaurant before already in 2016 and after. At the time it was called restaurant Prisma awarded with 1 Michelin Star and already at the helm chef Patrick Mahler. Now 5 years later and in between a switch from restaurant Prisma to restaurant Focus it was again a stunning experience. This food is incredible and the Chef and his team are the most kind and professional people we could wish for.
On the menu we had a Chef’s surprise menu, it was surprise after surprise indeed, the Chef outdid himself again.
