The right gear is no laughing matter

Honestly, the machine does half the work. We've plugged in, scraped and burned through quite a few before spotting the ones that actually last — whether you're feeding two people or twenty.

Recipes that truly melt

The 3 best raclette restaurants in the world

Feel like leaving the coupelle in the cupboard tonight? Three addresses where raclette becomes a proper ritual — from a Valaisan wheel to a Montréal table.

N°1
Sierre, Switzerland

Château de Villa

In the heart of the Valais, this raclette temple serves unlimited helpings of five raw-milk alpine cheeses certified Raclette du Valais AOP, scraped straight from the wheel by the pros. More than twenty terroirs rotate through the year, from valley floor to high mountain pasture.

N°2
Paris, France

Monbleu

This Parisian cheese shop and restaurant has become a benchmark for all-you-can-eat raclette. Rare varieties take centre stage: smoked, goat's cheese, wild garlic, truffle or Espelette pepper.

N°3
Montréal, Canada

Restaurant La Raclette

On the Plateau Mont-Royal since 1985, this Swiss institution keeps the true alpine raclette tradition alive — scraped at the table, BYOB style. One of the last of its kind in Montréal, and still the city's gold standard.
