One of the better Moxy breakfast selections I’ve seen: Restaurant @ Moxy Sion (25. August 2024)
I’m not always too big a fan of Moxy breakfasts, as they are very often too small, the selection is incredibly limited, and they come for a price, which is ridiculous. Luckily, at the Moxy Sion, this was different. The selection is actually quite nice, ranging from a few different cereals … … to pastry […]
If that’s really Sion’s No. 1 – then that’s a sad culinary landscape: Restaurant Le Resto-Verso (24. August 2024)
Apparently, this place is No. 1 of Sion according to TripAdvisor, and that is something I would dare doubting. I mean, sure, the place is okay, but No. 1 is a bit of a stretch. Not that I have many places to compare, but frankly, I would be surprised if they don’t have anything better […]
A simple and nice place to do a quick pit stop on your hike: Restaurant Buvette a Brac (24. August 2024)
If you are doing a hike from Sion, then there are quite a few routes, which are lovely to do. The only challenge is that there aren’t too many stops, so, you have to make the best out of it in case you find such a stop. We stopped at the Buvette a Brac and […]
The perfect place to try out as many raclettes as you want: Restaurant Château de Villa (23. August 2024)
The Château de Villa is known for its selection of raclette, and it offers quite a nice deal being “dégustation de 5 fromages (à discretion)” (CHF 36.00), so, basically, for only CHF 36.00 you get to try five different types of raclette and then you get to pick from whichever one you want as much […]
Surprisingly nice to enjoy a cold beer and a plate of cold cuts: Restaurant Buvette du Bord de l’eau (23. August 2024)
It is not entirely easy to find a nice place in Sierre, which is open in the afternoon, but it turns out that the Buvette du Bord de l’eau is actually quite nice. It’s rather a small restaurant, which offers food if you’re by the outdoor pool. They offer a limited amount of dishes, but […]
Perfect final breakfast experience in Iceland – if you’re patient: Restaurant Sandholt (22. August 2024)
Given the dining experience the previous evening, I decided to have one last interesting brunch experience before leaving Iceland and went to Reykjavík before take off to have breakfast at the Sandholt. And upon arrival I was rather surprised that at 8.50am you would have to queue for about 20 minutes until you get a […]
Not worth the visit in the middle of nowhere: Restaurant SVO @ Hótel Hvolsvöllur (21. August 2024)
If I had a choice to rebook my hotels during my trip, I probably would only rebook this one – the Hótel Hvolsvöllur is about as basic as it gets, and that comes with the selection of food. To be fair, though, the staff is friendly and generally attentive, which is nice. The “grilled whale […]
A great place to do a short pit stop on a long drive to Reykjavik: Restaurant Systrakaffi (21. August 2024)
Getting back from Jökulsarlon to Reykjavik is a bit of a journey (of more than 400km), so, after a few hours of driving (at a fun speed of 90 km/h max), I decided to do a small pit stop and went for the Systrakaffi, which had great ratings and decided, very unlike me usually, to […]
