   Arrive at Hotel Belvedere. Staff will lead you to the gondola setup - it's a literal Männlichen gondola cabin repurposed as an indoor dining installation. Impossible to miss.

   Order Classic Fondue with Wine Pairing

   wine $$

   Order classic Swiss cheese fondue (Gruyère + Vacherin 'moitié-moitié' blend) with wine pairing. Typically Chasselas/Fendant from Valais or Vaud. Ask staff about the gondola's history - when did it operate? Which route?

   Finish with Valais Marc Digestif

   Optional

   wine $

   Ask staff if they have Valais Marc (grape pomace brandy) for digestif. This is the traditional way to end a fondue meal. Dip bread in cheese, sip white wine, embrace the absurdity of eating in a gondola that used to fly over the Alps.
