Restaurant du Golf de Payerne
Restaurant du Golf de Payerne offers a unique culinary duality, blending traditional Italian techniques with the vibrant flavors of Thai cuisine within an 18th-century estate. The kitchen demonstrates technical prowess in its seasonal game menus, where venison is often slow-braised or pan-seared to a perfect medium-rare, accompanied by rich, wine-reduced sauces. On the Thai side, the aroma of lemongrass and galangal defines the experience, with signature curries featuring house-made pastes and precisely balanced heat. The wood-fired pizzas are a local favorite, boasting a thin, blistered crust and high-quality toppings like salty prosciutto and creamy mozzarella. Texture is a key focus, from the crunch of fresh papaya salads to the silkiness of handmade pasta. Whether dining on the terrace overlooking the greens or in the rustic interior, the experience is characterized by a commitment to regional sourcing.
