Château de Villa — Restaurant in Sierre

I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the restaurant Chateau de Villa in Sierre, Valais canton, Switzerland. This charming little restaurant in a picturesque château near the vineyards is a true delight!
