Nice place to flee from the rain and enjoy a Guinness: The Palace Bar (20. October 2023)

It’s a good 17 months ago since I’ve last been to Dublin – and by coincidence, my friends picked The Palace Bar as the place to rest and enjoy a couple of beers. So, after 17 months, it was time to return. This time, I went to the upper floor and enjoyed a pint of […]

Probably better for cocktails than for dinner: Restaurant La Catedral Cócteles y Antojitos (18. October 2023)

Probably better for cocktails than for dinner: Restaurant La Catedral Cócteles y Antojitos (18. October 2023)

It’s not so long ago since the La Catedral Cócteles y Antojitos has opened, so it was due time to give it a try. Once you’re seated you’re served a little alcoholic shot, but if you turn it down because you don’t want to drink alcohol, you’re not offered an alternative. Instead, you’re served some […]

Decent and relatively quick lunch experience: Restaurant Nooba Europaallee (18. October 2023)

Decent and relatively quick lunch experience: Restaurant Nooba Europaallee (18. October 2023)

Simple and relatively quick – that’s the summary of having lunch at the Nooba Europallee. I went for the “Bibim Myun (beef stripes, yam noodles, kimchi, young spinach, onsen egg, carrots, soy sprouts, salad, sesame, Kocyu Jyan sauce)” (CHF 29.90) and I must say, I liked it. It wasn’t the best kind of noodle dish […]

Weird, when you end up paying more for the menu than ordering the single dishes: Restaurant Püente (17. October 2023)

Weird, when you end up paying more for the menu than ordering the single dishes: Restaurant Püente (17. October 2023)

It’s a bit ago since I’ve last been to the Püente, and I was not really blown away the last time. But after a good three years, I figured I should give it another try. We went for the “Menu Sorpresa – 5 Platos” (CHF 85.00 per person), which started with some “bread and spread”, […]

Healthy, but not really feeling like a proper lunch place: Restaurant Roots @ Balboa (16. October 2023)

Healthy, but not really feeling like a proper lunch place: Restaurant Roots @ Balboa (16. October 2023)

After almost a week of excessive delicious eating, I felt like I should have something light and healthy. Hence, the Roots @ Balboa is really a good place for that. I went for the “Daal Soup” (CHF 11.00) as a starter, which was quite nice. It can, potentially, even be used as a main course […]

Outstanding service in a mind-blowing interior: Restaurant La Selva (15. October 2023)

Outstanding service in a mind-blowing interior: Restaurant La Selva (15. October 2023)

I was recommended to visit the La Selva by a friend, and I must say, it’s a great recommendation. Once you’re seated, you’re served a few “smoked edamame” on the house, and they were actually much better than I had expected. As starters, we went for the “corn toast with yellow fin tuna and guacamole” […]

An absolutely well-deserved Michelin star with outstanding service: Restaurant Mont Bar (14. October 2023)

An absolutely well-deserved Michelin star with outstanding service: Restaurant Mont Bar (14. October 2023)

When you read the name ‘Mont Bar’ you wouldn’t expect this to be a place with a Michelin star, but it has one, and I feel it deserves one. I was a bit late, which seemed to be a problem since they have two seatings. Oopsi! Well, since there is basically just the “Tasting Menu” […]

A decent Galician restaurant experience: Restaurant La Penela (14. October 2023)

A decent Galician restaurant experience: Restaurant La Penela (14. October 2023)

Given bedtime was super late, I ended up having a late lunch again the next day. I wasn’t really sure where to go, so I looked for something in walking distance of the hotel, as I really didn’t want to eat another 10 courses for lunch after a felt 20 courses the day and night […]
