Swiss cuisine bears witness to many regional influences, including Italian, French, and German cuisine, and also features many dishes specific to Switzerland. Traditional Swiss dishes tend to be plain and made from simple ingredients, such as potatoes and cheese. There are many ways to eat cheese, but for those who would like to taste Swiss specialties, fondue and raclette are a must.
