It is normal to feel homesick when you are living away from your home but I start feeling homesick when I return to Switzerland. This manifests itself especially in delicious food. My favourite shopping spree is not to the fancy fashion boutiques but rather a quick runaround the Coop, one of Switzerland's two supermarket giants. Further, I just cannot resist those Early Beck bakery's? Too many temptations in too many shapes and colours. I call it Swiss comfort food... here are some of my favourite.
Teatime on the balcony. A chocolate-filled Carac with my tea.
Expat Girls favourite: Chiacchiere di Carnevale
Take-away lunch on top of the mountain
The most Swiss of all drinks: Ramseier and Rivella
Hot chocolate last year in a cosy café
Hot chocolate on-the-go this year due to Covid restrictions
I'll take them all, please. Carac and Vermicelles
No winter holiday is complete without a raclette accompanied by a glass of Fendant
Gruyères' best kept secret outside of Switzerland: meringues and cream
A typical Swiss light lunch: Laugenbrötli, Bündnerfleisch, Salat und Ramseier
Cannot get enough of those tea cakes
An epic chocolate bar for yourself or as a present
This little lemon cake made it all the way back to Paris for teatime.
