Concept

In the heart of Gruyère, a new team is extending the emblematic spirit of the alpine buvette, “Chez Boudji”.

Under the leadership of master cheesemaker, William Wyssmüller, Les Fondues Wyssmüller® SA is bolstering its activities by investing in this gathering spot, known far and wide for over thirty years now.

Let’s celebrate life!

A story

Better known under the name of its creator – a well-known herdsman and dairyman named “Boudji” – the Gîte d'Avau on the heights of Broc is a must for enjoying deeply convivial moments.

A world of senses

A magical environment, a chalet teeming with wood and an alpine atmosphere, typical smells wafting through the dining room and terrace alike: it’s a place to sit, admire, and enjoy the sweet magic radiating from this place so conducive to getting together and chatting.

  • Magnifique endroit ! 🤩 je recommande. A 15 minutes de Gruyère, ce restaurant d’alpage propose des spécialités ainsi que des fondues délicieuses. Ambiance conviviale, personnel accueillant, vue splendide.

  • We are a family of four with children aged 11 and 13. We all enjoyed the traditional Swiss food. The children said that their lemonade was the best ever and that the trampoline outside was lots of fun. My wife and I especially liked the happy atmosphere inside the restaurant and the sevice was friendly attentive and efficient. Great friendly restaurant, great food, great service, reasonable prices. We will be back next year.

A magical place

After a decade in which couple Alexandra and Yves Jaquet continued what their predecessors had already done with great joy, Les Fondues Wyssmüller® have moved in to “Chez Boudji”, honouring a tradition of hospitality.

Master cheesemaker for over twenty-five years, manufacturer, and then retailer, it is as a passionate man that William Wyssmüller creates and develops a new vision around fondue in Switzerland.

The Les Fondues Wyssmüller® brand creates a gastronomic world around flavours. For a company that has long had the ambition of presenting and sharing its products from pasture to plate, “Chez Boudji” was a natural step. And now that it’s done, the flavour and friendship party can start!
