Their Ossining restaurant serves authentic Swiss dishes such as rahmschnitzel (veal cutlet) with noodles, spatzil bolognese and Wiener schnitzel. Specialties include roestizza bernese and Swiss cheese fondue for two. The wine and beer list is extensive and mostly European-influenced. Desserts are decadent and reflect the owners' roots.
