Ready for Some Müesli?
Müesli, that crunchy, wholesome breakfast treat, was created at the turn of the 20th century by Swiss physician Maximilian Bircher-Benner for his hospital patients.
The Baur au Lac Hotel, Talstrasse 1, Zurich, serves what many consider Switzerland’s best version of this popular cereal. Of course, this Road Trips Foodie would rather jet off to Zurich and sample the original. But, in the meantime, the hotel has revealed its secret recipe, and here it is:
