A new gastronomic restaurant opened its doors last month on the third floor of the public zone of Geneva Airport.

Called “Le Chef”, the light and airy neo-industrial style restaurant enjoys spectacular views over the airport runways and Jura mountains, and welcomes international travellers and local residents alike.

But what makes Le Chef unique is not its lofty location with large bay windows and penthouse feel – although these certainly create a special atmosphere. Without doubt, it is the inventive cuisine, signed by Benjamin Luzuy, the leader of a new generation of passionate chefs, which sets this restaurant apart from others. Being a passionate ambassador of local produce, Benjamin has created an authentic menu that incorporates local produce from the Romand region, presented in 4 seasonal collections using 4 different cooking methods, namely raw/marinated, steam, naked flame and slow cooking.
