Reviewed By 120giorgiom - Lausanne, Switzerland
We live close to Lausanne, so we know this store very well. We go there every time we look for a nice Swiss souvenir for our friends and visitors, and we have never been disappointed. The choice is excellent and the prices correct, with items for all budgets. Furthermore, the people running the store are extremely kind and always ready to help: they make the customers feel as part of the family. I particularly recommend the Bazar d'Ouchy for Swiss army knives (a very extensive selection) and for music boxes, starting from very inexpensive but with some high-level choices. I advise a visit whenever you are in Lausanne: with the metro, you can get there very easily, and Ouchy is also a very nice place to see.
