For more than forty years, Pierrot Ayer has made Le Pérolles a landmark of Fribourg’s gastronomy, renowned for uncompromising quality, creativity, and a deep respect for the local terroir.
In February 2026, he will hand over the reins to his son Julien Ayer and Chef Victor Moriez, opening a new chapter where excellence meets modern audacity.
Within the contemporary setting designed by architect Mario Botta, the open dining room fosters dialogue between kitchen and guests, creating an experience where every detail tells a story.
Julien, a passionate sommelier, curates exceptional wine pairings, while Victor crafts a modern cuisine guided by the seasons and the finest local producers.
Le Pérolles remains a place of transmission and discovery, true to Pierrot Ayer’s spirit: to surprise without betraying, to honour the terroir while exploring new culinary horizons.
