‘Chügelipastete’ (meat pie)

According to tradition ‘Lozärner Chügelipastete’, which dates from the 18th century and is one of Lucerne’s historic specialities, is served as the highlight of the Safran Guild’s annual ‘Bärteli Meal’ on 2 January. The pie filled with ragout made of veal and sausage meat balls owes its name to Fritschi, Lucerne’s famous carnival figure.
