Where to Eat and Drink at the World Economic Forum in Davos

Bloomberg Quicktake published this video item, entitled “Where to Eat and Drink at the World Economic Forum in Davos” – below is their description.

For 51 weeks a year, the high-altitude Swiss town of Davos is a relatively modest ski resort. Then, for one week in January, Davos turns into the hardest place to book a restaurant table on Earth. This year’s projected attendees for the World Economic Forum (Jan. 15-19) include World Bank Group President Ajay Banga, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Microsoft Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Standard Chartered CEO Bill Winters. #davos #wef

The marquee attendees will not be making spontaneous reservations; they’ll be sitting at white-cloth-covered tables at restaurant takeovers and private events that were booked months ago. Accordingly, top spots, such as Restaurant Gentiana (home to some of the best fondue in town) and the dining rooms at fancy hotels such as the Grischa and the Morosani have been bought out for the entire week by individual companies to facilitate entertaining.

Still, for Davos attendees with dining openings on their dance cards, there are still some very good options, including places that reserve space for walk-ins and others that just aren’t taking reservations for the week. In a pinch, seek out the cheese-stocked vending machine; it’s located near the Hard Rock Hotel.
