Swiss Cheese Garden:

The Swiss Cheese Garden has a Norwegian touch to design. The interiors are made from babul logs, which create an atmosphere of Swiss Log Huts, and they have Mangalore tiles on the ceiling, laid from inside rather than from the top of the roof, which keeps the place cool even in the summer. All the wood used has been provided from the farm. The surroundings are lush green with plants and trees from various parts of the world. There is also an in-house nursery where they grow all the herbs that are used in the cooking.

An 80 year old evergreen well which lies just behind a "racing pigeon's house" provides for some part of the water supply. The terrace may be used for holding private parties.

Not only is the the ambience is wonderful but the food is delicious too. Most of the cheeses made at A.B.C. Farms are showcased and used to the best advantage at Swiss Cheese Garden, located within the A.B.C. Farms food court at Koregaon Park in Pune.

Here Cheese fondues and specialty dishes like Raclettes, Rostis, Chicken Cordon Bleu, Swiss Alps Goulash and Smoked Veal are served. To compliment the Swiss European cuisine we have an equal strength to offer some of the finest Indian dishes prepared from our raw material from the farm such as wheat from which the rotis are made.
