  2. Chalet La Suisse

    This Swiss-run restaurant is as upscale as the name sounds - it's seriously expensive (by Bolivian standards), has a very old-style atmospheric and is extremely good. Imported cheeses, top local wines and trout dishes are merely part of the experience. Don't go here if you're after Bolivian atmosphere - it would be as at home in New York or London - but gourmands should splurge.

  3. Kuchen Stube

    A favorite for sweet snacks with decadent German pastries, reasonable coffee, fresh juices and quiche lorraine. Each day they have a special lunch (Monday is Italian and Thursday is vegetarian).

  5. Pronto Dalicatessen

    Eating here is like having sex for the first time: definitely experimental, shockingly foreign, but surprisingly delicious in the end. When the restaurant's name contains an Italian 'Pronto' and a punned ' Dali catessen', you know you're in for a surreal fusion. Think goat ravioli with Asian curry sauce or quinoa spaghetti with coca béchamel sauce, and you get the sensation.
