Those fond of fondue may wish to sit down for this: Lugano Swiss Bistro is for sale (see story, News section). Marco Chavelas, who himself purchased the longtime haven of warming, hearty Swiss fare in 2019, plans to remain open for perhaps as long as a month before the deal closes. Chavelas helped open the restaurant in 1995 and took over after the death of original chef and owner Andre Lengacher.
