La Bréguettaz in Vaulion: the high pastures brasserie

Though it is in the middle of the high pastures, a few kilometers  from Vaulion, this big house built in 1706 is always full. People come there to enjoy the fondues, the entrecôtes hung on the bone cooked in red wine, the snails au gratin in lees sauce, the leek and ham pasta gratins. And there are also the desserts by Philippe Guignard, the owner who took over in 2002, who is also a confectioner in Orbe. A nice address you will prefer on week days if you are looking for intimacy as it tends to be crowded on weekends.
