SWISS brings top Uri cuisine from Lake Lucerne aboard

Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) will be serving its First and Business Class guests culinary delights that have been co-created with the Zwyssighaus restaurant in the village of Bauen in Canton Uri from 5 March onwards. For the following three months, premium travelers on long-haul SWISS flights from Switzerland will enjoy the exclusive creations of Joshua Lüscher, who has been chef de cuisine at this historic gourmet restaurant – the birthplace of Alberich Zwyssig, composer of the Swiss national anthem – since 2023. Lüscher, who is 34, has already cooked his way to 15 GaultMillau points, and his creative concoctions have earned him a firm place among Switzerland’s rising culinary stars.

“We’re extremely pleased to bring the flavors of Canton Uri to our inflight guests,” says SWISS Head of Brand Experience Julia Hillenbrand. “Joshua Lüscher’s meals are a deft blend of traditional fare and contemporary flair, which sits excellently with who and what SWISS aspires to be. His creations surprise the senses and bring new life to the familiar aromas of the Uri region’s cuisine.”

“My meal creations will soon be served at unfamiliar lofty heights,” Joshua Lüscher adds. “And I’m truly delighted to have this unique opportunity to work with SWISS and bring a little piece of our Uri culinary culture to travelers from all over the world.”

SWISS’s First Class customers can look forward to starters that include an elegant tatar of cured pikeperch and mustard pickles, served with marinated white asparagus. Their main course options include a tender veal steak with herb butter jus and green pea and potato purée or goat meatballs and velouté with crayfish and clam sauce. And they can round off their meal with a dulce de leche tartlet with poached pear.

SWISS’s Business Class travelers can begin their meal with a new take on a classic starter of vitello salmone with capers and toasted brioche. Their main course options include a braised beef shoulder and jus with morels served with ribelmais polenta or chicken breast with Casimir curry sauce. A lemon cake with mascarpone and verbena gel offers a sweet conclusion to their Uri culinary experience.

The three-course meal which will be served in Premium Economy Class for the next three months has also taken its inspiration from Uri cuisine. Guests here can look forward to such inflight delights as a beef stew with red wine sauce and a fruity rhubarb tiramisu.
