Swiss Chalet at McKnight Blvd and Edmonton Tr closed down months ago.
I wonder why. It was always busy.
I read Gilchrist's write-up on Bottega Trattoria 1-5708 1 St SE and I wanted to try it so I went with a friend today for lunch.

We really liked it. Only complaint was the friend found it freezing cold.
The ambience is Builders Park hole-in-the-wall industrial but the food is good and reasonably priced.
Only open for lunch during the week but they will book dinner parties and they have an evening cooking class.
The owner and the staff are all very personable and friendly.
I had a seafood fettuccine with tomato sauce and friend had carbonara and they came with bruschetta.
There are no appies or soup so we each had salad to start.
The pizzas looked amazing. I guess I'll have to go back for that.
We declined the opportunity to try their tiramisu.
Also the amazing world of Bianca Amor's Liquidation Paradise is right across the parking lot. Wow I had no idea.
