Montreux Jazz Cafe - Creative Dishes With A Jazz Flavour

The Montreux Jazz Festival, founded in 1967 by Claude Nobs, has become one of the most prestigious international cultural events in the world, drawing 250,000 visitors each summer to the shores of Lake Geneva in Switzerland. In this inimitable setting, Nina Simone, Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald, Marvin Gaye, Prince, David Bowie, and Stevie Wonder have given historic performances.

The elegant menu with details of each delicious ingredient listed...

Trained as a chef, the founder took his passion for gastronomy and his sense of hospitality far beyond the Festival: thus the Montreux Jazz Café was born, designed as a welcoming space where cuisine and music could combine in a way never seen before.

To whet your appetite, freshly-baked warm bread is served with tri-flavoured butter...

Offering a menu of dishes crafted with the very passion so characteristic of those inimitable Montreux moments, delectable favourites such as the famous B.B. Burger, Quincy Jones marinated spring chicken, and the succulent Ella’s Cheesecake abound.

Starting off with Gimme Hendricks ($18) a unique cocktail comprising of Hendricks Gin, Cucumber, Elderflower, Tonic Water…

Main Acts

The 225g Fillet Mignon ($58) is char-grilled perfectly to your preferred doneness with adorable roasted cherry tomatoes and a healthy garden salad on the side. Due to the cut, meat from this particular region is particularly tender, and makes for an easy meal when accompanied by the choice of Horseradish Cream, Béarnaise Sauce or Red Wine Sauce.

The BB Cheese Burger ($28) is a decent-sized American-style beef burger with Dijon Mustard, Pommery Mustard, Green Peppercorn Mustard, Aged Cheddar and Montreux Jazz Sauce. The Garden Salad and French Fries complete the hearty platter.

For a fresh change, consider the Roasted Prawn Tail ($36) served New Potatoes, Seasonal Vegetables, Chimichurri Sauce. For those unfamiliar with the name, Chimichurri Sauce is an uncooked sauce used for grilled meat made of finely-chopped parsley, minced garlic, vegetable oil, oregano, and white vinegar with an Argentinian origin. A perfect combination with the mild sweetness of lightly-grilled fresh prawns.

Final Acts

Savour desserts while listening to the relaxing tones of jazz music...


For a start, consider the Ella’s Cheesecake ($15), a must-try in any Montreux Jazz Café.
Inspired by the legendary Ella Fitzgerald, the addition of the sweet berries and strawberry puree to the rich cream cake and fragrant biscuit crust helps keep the palate refreshed and wanting for more…

The Mont Blanc ($15) is deconstructed Lemon Meringue dotted with Chestnut Custard and Caramelized Chestnut leaving a trail of Dark Chocolate crumbs in its wake…

Similarly the Tiramisu ($13) is a deconstructed semi-circle of rich Mascarpone Mousse, flanked by Espresso Light Sponge topped Vanilla Crumble, and dusted with Chocolate powder…
