Zum See Review

In a hamlet (little more than a cluster of mazots) of the same name, this restaurant turns out inventive meals that merit acclaim. A half hour's walk from Zermatt, it overflows until late afternoon with diners sunning on the terrace or packed into the 400-year-old log house. (The quickest way to get here is to walk or ski down from Furi.) Hosts Max and Greti Mennig masterfully prepare such daily specials as venison salad with wild mushrooms and handmade tortelloni with nettle-ricotta filling. The selection of wines and brandies sets skiers aglow.
