The first photo was taken with my
smartphone last Summer, I just wanted you to see Montreux, such a lovely
background…this small town is well worth a visit…
My style is primarily based on comfort.
For our day getaway to Montreux, I dressed very warmly. A padded jacket,
gloves, a girly pom pom hat and a colourful scarf to brighten this basic look during
the grey winter days! All my outfit and accessories are from the classy,
gorgeous boutique called L’Effrontée.
We were lucky with the weather, neither
rainy nor windy. The temperature was 4 degrees, but when you walk around a
Christmas market you forget the cold…
After strolling in the market, we headed
to my favourite restaurant in Montreux, Funky Claude's Bar.
Every time I come here I'm happy because I
know that I will spend a wonderful evening.
I love the warm and elegant decoration, in
shades of red and brown, with a wooden bar, black and white photographs of
artists, marble tables, armchairs and leather sofas and soft lighting conducive
to privacy.
There is a large plasma TV and a stage to
the side of the bar. From 7pm you can enjoy good live music while enjoying
great cocktails and succulent and hearty burgers.
Sweetheart chose a tomato juice and I,
their signature cocktail, Passion Star (Ketel One Citroen vodka, Galliano, pineapple juice, lemon juice, Monin vanilla
syrup, passion fruit topped up with champagne). I STRONGLY recommend this
cocktail to die for! We ordered the Chalet
Burger (with cheddar instead of Tomme Vaudoise cheese)... I was not able to
finish my dish, so we did not have dessert, we were full... but I can tell you
that their crème brûlée is gorgeous.
If you are traveling to Montreux do not
miss the opportunity to come to this classy and yet casual restaurant-bar.
The staff is friendly and professional ...
and the atmosphere really cool...You can even dance if you are not shy because
the music is fantastic...
Funky
