Nice little Thai place with decent food: Restaurant Baï-Toey (9. October 2023)
It wasn’t entirely easy to find a restaurant, which was still open at 9pm, but the Baï-Toey was still open, and located close to the hotel I was staying at. I went for the “Yam Nuea Yang (grilled beef salad with lemongrass)” (CHF 13.00) as a starter, and while it was tasty, and the beef […]
Decent if you’re staying here, but not worth the travel: Restaurant Moments @ Marriott Geneva (8. October 2023)
I have eaten at the Moments before, but always forgot to take pictures. Finally, it was time and I went for the “L’Oeuf Mollet” (CHF 21.00) to get started. It was a bit different than I had anticipated, but it was quite enjoyable. The breaded egg was definitely something interesting – and the sauce in […]
Lovely place to enjoy the view over Zurich with nice drinks: Clouds Bar (6. October 2023)
Some years have passed by since I’ve last visited the Clouds Bar. Given it was close to the pop-up I was at for dinner, it felt like the perfect place to have a last drink. I went for the “Angel Dust (Clouds Gin No. 9, Cognac, Gingerbread, Mint, Peychauds Bitters)” (CHF 21.00), which was rather […]
A delicious pop-up for meat lovers: Schnitzel- & Cordon Bleu-Pop-Up @ Restaurant Bistro k2 (6. October 2023)
I have been to the k2 Bistro in the past, but I wasn’t aware they do a Cordon Bleu and schnitzel pop-up once in a while. And the good thing is, it’s not even in the main restaurant but really in the part behind in the Maag Halle, which is quite spacious and, hence, creates […]
Tasty lunch, but too many vegetables in their signature dish: Restaurant HATO (6. October 2023)
It is years ago since I’ve last been at the HATO, but given it’s in walking distance of the office, I have decided to give the place another try. And I must say, it’s rather on the pricey side of things, but it’s worth visiting. I went for the “Hamachi (usuzukuri, yuzu truffle)” (CHF 28.00) […]
Absolutely delicious lunch, but definitely on the pricier side of things: Restaurant Parkhuus (5. October 2023)
It’s quite some time ago since I’ve last been to the Parkhuus, and I remember why. The place is absolutely lovely, the service is super professional, the food is great. However, the prices – especially for lunch – are way too high! I went for the “wild herbs’ salad (lentils, goat cheese, peach, fennel, crackers)” […]
Lovely ramen place for lunch: Restaurant Susuru (4. October 2023)
I have walked by the Susuru quite a few times already, but somehow never felt like entering the place. Finally, it was time to do so and it was a pleasant surprise. The place is rather small and if you want to eat quickly, then you need to inform them upfront, as it takes them […]
A nice place to play cards, but not necessarily a foodie paradise: Restaurant Werdguet (3. October 2023)
The Werdguet remains my go-to to play cards. Somehow, though, when it comes to the service, the experience has shifted. There are a few new people on the block, and they are not really up to the task yet. I asked for a large bottle of sparkling water and got a glass. Which is not […]
