Raclette Night at Basilic Restaurant
An Authentic Taste of the Swiss Alps—Right Here in Newport.

 

Experience Raclette Night at Basilic Restaurant—an authentic and interactive Swiss dining tradition brought to life in our dining room. 

 

Raclette is a beloved cheese specialty from the Canton of Valais in Switzerland, traditionally prepared by holding a half-round of cheese near a fire, then scraping the melted layer directly onto a plate—a process that gives the dish its name.

 

At Basilic, Bernard and Loic personally prepare the Raclette tableside, melting and scraping the rich cheese onto your plate for a warm, immersive experience. The meal is served with traditional accompaniments such as warm fingerling potatoes, cornichons, and pickled onions. This comforting dish is best enjoyed with a glass of Fendant, a dry white wine from Valais, perfectly pairing with the cheese’s creamy richness.

 

Offered the first Tuesday of every month, Raclette Night at Basilic is a rare opportunity to savor a true taste of the Swiss Alps—without ever leaving Balboa Island.
