"My family and I ate dinner at La Grange during a quick weekend getaway to Verbier. The only remarkable thing about the evening was the price of the meal (well, no surprise there as it's Verbier.) While the décor is your typical Swiss vieux bois that is pretty, the food really wasn't. We ordered the tuna tataki, prawns and buffala mozzarella as starters. The mozzarella was excellent. The tuna was okay but it was sliced much too thickly for a tataki. The prawns were pretty insipid, breaded in something and swimming in a sea of sweet and sour sauce that could have come out of a can (for those of a certain age who grew up in the US the sauce evoked a can of La Choy which promised in the mid 1970s that “La Choy makes Chinese food, swing American”.) The sauce basically seemed to serve the additional purpose of ensuring the mystery breaded coating was soggy by the time you ate the prawn. I ordered a steak that was fine (hard to mess up a ribeye) although it was accompanied by so so fries that were seriously over salted. My daughters had pasta (a favorite dish) that neither enjoyed and left largely uneaten. My wife ordered sole (CHF 52) that was remarkably rubbery. So rubbery that it was actually hard to cut (which shouldn't be a problem for sole) and we initially thought it was undercooked. The waiter, to his credit, inquired how the fish was and upon speaking with my wife took it back into the kitchen and they cooked it a bit more. Upon the re-plating and return of the fish, it remained just as rubbery. You could actually stretch the fillets and upon release they would spring back to their original shape much like a giant rubber band – something we've not experienced with sole before. My wife gave up (although the waiter offered to have the kitchen prepare another one, she'd lost her appetite at that point.) For dessert my wife and children had ice cream and sorbet. I had mousse au chocolate. The mousse had a good texture, but literally no flavor. Bland chocolate mousse isn't something I've come across. And to top it all off upon returning to our hotel, let's just say I needed an urgent visit to the bathroom. So along with the CHF 400 bill (no offer to comp anything despite the inedible sole) the prawns must have been a “parting gift” or perhaps a non amuse bouche. We will avoid La Grange on our next Verbier trip."
