Decent for a business lunch, but nothing to be overly excited about: Restaurant Hermanseck (2. November 2023)

It’s about 8 years ago since I’ve last been to the Hermanseck, but the place is still there as it used to be. I went for the “carrot coconut soup”, which was part of the menu, and I must say it was rather enjoyable all in all. The portion size is decent, and they manage […]

An interesting dining experience, since they serve game you usually don’t get, like marmot: Restaurant Adler Ried (1. November 2023)

An interesting dining experience, since they serve game you usually don’t get, like marmot: Restaurant Adler Ried (1. November 2023)

It is about three years ago since I’ve last been to the Adler in Ried – and they are famous for their game selection. I started with a “champagne drink” to get the palate going, and it was surprisingly delicious in terms of lightness and flavour. As a starter on the house, we got served […]

Good for an afternoon break with a few nibbles to keep the alcohol balanced: Restaurant Miss Miu Badenerstrasse (1. November 2023)

Good for an afternoon break with a few nibbles to keep the alcohol balanced: Restaurant Miss Miu Badenerstrasse (1. November 2023)

The Miss Miu in the Badenerstrasse used to be “The Butcher & His Daughter”, but since it’s under new management, I decided to give the place another try. Given I’ve only had lunch shortly before, there was no need to indulge, but it was good to eat a bit of something before enjoying some alcoholic […]

A decent place for a quick business lunch: Restaurant Kaufleuten (1. November 2023)

A decent place for a quick business lunch: Restaurant Kaufleuten (1. November 2023)

The Kaufleuten remains a good place for a quick business lunch as it offers a good menu for a fair price, which is served rather swiftly. The “salad with home-made dressing” (CHF 12.50) is good and refreshing, however, it is a bit expensive for what you get. The “char with capers and lime filets, broccoli, […]

A superb lunch experience for a business day break: Restaurant Baur’s (27. October 2023)

The Baur’s is kind of one of my new favourites, as they really serve super tasty dishes, provide great service, and have a super stylish atmosphere. The menu today consisted of the “lentil salad” (CHF 10.00), which was not only quite a portion in terms of size, but was also absolutely delicious in terms of […]

Always a great vegetarian option for dinner: Neue Taverne (26. October 2023)

Always a great vegetarian option for dinner: Neue Taverne (26. October 2023)

I keep coming back to the Neue Taverne or a give or take regular basis – as it really turns out to be one of my more preferred vegetarian places in Zurich, as they are really non-pretentious about it. We went for the “sourdough bread from the Eigenbrötler, dip” (CHF 7.50) and the “couscous, bell […]

The second time is the charm: Restaurant Le Lyrique (26. October 2023)

The second time is the charm: Restaurant Le Lyrique (26. October 2023)

Last time I was at Le Lyrique, it was raining cats and dogs, and I was soaking wet. This time, luckily, it only rained a little, which made the whole experience much more pleasant. As a starter, I went for the “pumpkin carpaccio with curry and ginger with flute Gruyère cheese” (CHF 18.00), and while […]

Quite a decent place for dinner, but a bit on the pricier side: Restaurant The Foundry (25. October 2023)

Quite a decent place for dinner, but a bit on the pricier side: Restaurant The Foundry (25. October 2023)

If you want to treat yourself with a nice meal after a rough day, then The Foundry is pretty much the perfect place. Maybe with the side comment that the background music is rather loud, so it isn’t entirely optimal to have longer phone calls. Other than that, the place is lovely in terms of […]
