12 Day Switzerland RS Tour Dinner Suggestions?

We are also taking the 12 day RS tour, our's is starting in late July. We arrive in Zurich Tuesday mid-morning and will take the train to Chur and then transfer to Pontresina for 2 nights. The next day, Wednesday we take the Bernina Express to Tirano for a couple of hours with lunch, then an early afternoon Train back to Pontresina for a late afternoon short "Waterfall Hike". The next day we take the train to Luzern for three nights before the tour starts. We will be taking a boat to go to Mount Rigi for a 6 hour day, then a couple of days in Luzern with one more day train trip to an undecided destination (and suggestions would be appreciated) Our discounted 5/4 day Swiss Pass saves us about 120 SF over regular fares.
Any dinner suggestions for Lucern/Murren/Bern/Lausanne (not clear if the dinner is included this day with the wine tasting?) would be appreciated.
Bon Voyage Everyone!

You aren’t asking for Pontresina dining but we enjoyed the whole experience at Kronenstubli which was memorable.

Thank you Suki for the recommendation for Kronenstubli. We are booked for July 27th. Looks amazing.

For your extra day trip in Luczern, you might try:
- The Panorama Express train from Luzern to Meiringen (Sit on the right hand side in direction of travel)
- Take the bus number B164 from Meiringen to Schwarzwaldalp (Sitting again on the right hand side). Perhaps have lunch there
- Take the bus number B128 from Schwarzwaldalp to Grindelwald (Sitting on the left this time). Possibly hop of the bus at Grosse Scheidegg and catch the next one after spending some time there
- In Grindelwald catch the trian to Interlaken Ost
- And from Interlaken Ost take the Panorama Express back to Luzern
