Good breakfast, but only once the kitchen has fully waken up: Restaurant Sushisamba @ W Edinburgh (10. October 2024)
While I do like the breakfast options they have at the W Edinburgh, I must say, you should not go too early since somehow they need to get the kitchen started. I had to wait a good 20 minutes between placing my order and getting my “Scottish Breakfast (potato scone, link sausage, streaky bacon, tomato, […]
A lovely view, but not entirely persuading dinner menu: Restaurant The Lookout by Gardener’s Cottage (9. October 2024)
I’ve been to the top of Calton Hill in the past and I had even walked by the restaurant, but didn’t have the chance to visit it. In the context of a work event, I ended up here, and I must say, the view is absolutely nice. They offer a standardized “tasting menu” (GBP 65.00) […]
Nice to return for a breakfast session after 7 years: Restaurant Backspielhaus (5. October 2024)
It’s about 7 years ago since I’ve last been to the Backspielhaus, but I have good memories of it, so it was time to give it another shot. I went for the “ham and cheese omelet” (EUR 7.50), which was a good portion and was generally speaking also good in terms of taste. However, it […]
A delicious dining experience paired with great service for a fair price: Restaurant Orsini (3. October 2024)
The Orsini has been on my to do list for quite a while, but only today I had the chance to visit it. And, given we wanted to have the full experience, we decided to go for the “Tasting Menu ‘Qui Ed Ora’” (CHF 175.00) with the matching “Wine Pairing” (CH 125.00). The whole evening […]
The perfect place for a swift and tasty business lunch: Restaurant 33 (2. October 2024)
What I really like about the Restaurant 33 is their efficiency. But, it also made it clear again that you really need to book in advance for lunch. Given two of my colleagues had booked a table and I joined last minute, they made it very clear that they are fully booked and that they […]
Decent breakfast in a not so nice, renamed restaurant: Restaurant Eisbach @ Four Points by Sheraton Munich Arabellapark (1. October 2024)
Since they’ve rebranded the Sheraton Arabellapark to the Four Points by Sheraton Munich Arabellapark (largely due to the fact that the place really has gone down in terms of interior, I assume), they also had to rebrand their SixtySix Dine & Grill to the Restaurant Eisbach. Frankly, though, the only thing new is the name. […]
Part of the Nobu chain with delicious dishes, but definitely too pricey: Restaurant Matsuhisa (30. September 2024)
Funny enough, about 2 days back I’ve just speaking about the Mandarin Oriental and their rooftop terrace, so, it was rather funny to end up in the Mandarin Oriental 2 days later, even if it wasn’t the rooftop terrace! The Matsuhisa is a lovely place, which – apparently – belongs to the Nobu chain, so, […]
The place, where they “write dishes”: Restaurant Schreiberei (28. September 2024)
I had picked the Schreiberei as a place I haven’t been to before, so, I figured let’s give it a try. They have a small, but nice menu, offering a few nice dishes like the “burrata” (EUR 12.00), which is served in a cup, which makes it look rather fancy and they pour the olive […]
