Not sure what to say?

Mark and Marcus aka Peewee old workers your family has our condolences hello Kenneth..

I hope Glenda gets to see this. Hey Ft. Worth folks...if you lived in Ft. Worth a while back you made Old Swiss House your special occasion restaurant. Tableside Caesar's salad made and flaming desserts.
The owner Walter Kauffmann passed away.

I will miss him knowing he has passed. And yet he lives on in many...

He was a true Gentleman and his culinary talents were excellent. He was fun to travel with and on one trip, he took us to Switzerland and showed us the original Old Swiss House. He left a true legacy on the Ft. Worth dining experience.
