There are several Halal food stores/butchers etc in Lausanne on the Avenue Louis Ruchonnet right next to the train station.

hey guys,

am wondering the same thing. any updates on more halal meat stores in lausanne. Addresses would be welcome!

For information, be aware that Halal meat is a bit different in Switzerland, as halal slaughter is illegal here. Animals have to be stunned first here, but an Imam is present to pray. If you want traditional Halal you will have to go to nearby France. There is a big halal slaughter house/butchers in Pontarlier, about 1 hour from Lausanne.

Remember though that the customs officers at Ballaigue/Vallorbe do check regularly that legal limits are not exceeded, eg 500gr per person per day of meat, and 3kg of prepared meats like sausages and poultry (300CHF per import - make sure you have separate receipts per person, and not just one combined one).

The best one (i have tried them all) is the Boucherie de la Gare, Avenue Louis-Ruchonnet 9

1003 Lausanne

021 312 04 22

it is the one farther up the hill going towards Cecil/Montbenon on the left, not the first one you see coming from the gare.

You can get real halal meat in Switzerland as long as it's imported

The import allowance of poultry is 3.5kg

Did you ever go to the one in Pontarlier Porsche? They also sell spices etc.

I went to one in Germany when I was in Basel last weekend. So not tried pontarlier yet.

When and if you do, report back please so I'll know whether to recommend or not. You could always take us with you to multiply your allowance!

Be aware that most Halal food in Switzerland, in shops and restaurants alike, comes from the state-owned Halal slaughterhouse in Besançon. Halal slaughter may be illegal but importing Halal food is NOT ! This is how the many Turkish and Arab restaurants here overcome the problem

and it of course also is the source of Jewish restaurants and Jewish households, not least as it is

"controlé par le Haut-Rabbinat de Paris" ... the Supreme Rabbi of Paris indeed is a unique personality also in high esteem among Arabs. He at times is on French TV (Fri/Sat) ... as the chap is old, I hope, his successor is of equal stature

Hello,

Does anyone know of a halal meat shop across the border from La chaux de Fond?

Thank you.

I used this link to find halal food in Bern, it worked but I was hesitant if it is really halal or not, as the guy was saying everything halal halal, but I felt that this was not the case.

The link has list of all halal shops / restaurants in Switzerland, but please try to make some more investigation (if you can) if the seller is trustworthy or just cheating - difficult to do ofcourse but I had to mention it.
