READER'S PAGE Your Vision of Gstaad
On the day of the tennis finals, we installed the “fender blender”, our smoothie-making bicycle, in front of Maison Lorenz Bach on the Promenade. This photo displays Gstaad at its very best–a blend of young and old, of tradition and modernity. Just as a client was pedalling furiously to blend her choice of ingredients into a delicious smoothie, a local goat herder with a furry companion in tow stopped to witness this unusual scene. That’s part of what makes the region so special… it’s a place where locals and guests from all walks of life can chat over a cold beer–or freshly blended smoothie! –Diana Thermiotis D’Hendecourt is a locally based entrepreneur and mother of three. She and friend Blanca Brillembourg debuted Glow, Gstaad’s first and only cold-press raw food healthbar, three years ago. Now based at Viktoriastrasse 1, Glow serves up smoothies with tasty names like Very Berry, Peachy Keen, and Cocoa Shake, as well as a selection of organic soups and salads. When she’s not pedalling the “fender blender”, Diana enjoys hiking, skiing, and spending time with her family in Greece.
