Nice food, but somehow the service isn’t on top of things: Restaurant Le Lyrique (13. September 2023)
When it’s raining outside in a way that every single cell of your body is soaking wet, then coming into the Le Lyrique is helpful for sure – since it shelters you from the rain. However, you have to be a bit patient until someone attends you. Once that was achieved, I had ordered the […]
Simple place, but with decent food and friendly service: Restaurant Chouchouette (12. September 2023)
The Chouchouette had been recommended to me by a friend, so, I decided to give it a try. As a starter, we decided to have starters to share like the “crumbled crab with yuzu and mango” (CHF 20.00), and I must say, it was actually quite enjoyable. I mean, it wasn’t a revelation, but it […]
Surprisingly empty, but nice dishes: Restaurant Bones (11. September 2023)
It was not entirely easy to find a nice restaurant in Baden, but I eventually stumbled over the Bones, which was, overall, quite lovely. The place was basically empty, i.e., we were the only guests, but at least the service was friendly and made sure we’d have what we wanted. I went for the “Ossobuco […]
Good burgers, but not the swiftest of service: Restaurant Korner (6. September 2023)
Funny enough, I always somehow end up having the exact same dish when coming here. I went for the “Mr Scoville Burger (handmade highland beef burger, very hot chilli sauce, roasted onions, biosphere Swiss mountain cheese and salad leaf) with Fries” (CHF 31.50), “garlic mayo” (CHF 2.50) plus and “coleslaw” (CHF 7.50). What I like […]
A place, which is definitely worth visiting for the food and the place itself: Restaurant Spitz (5. September 2023)
It’s a bit ago since I’ve last been to the Restaurant Spitz, but it turns out this is actually a place one should frequent more often. Once you’re seated, you are served some “bread and spread”, which is quite nice, i.e., the bread quality is good, and the spread is quite enjoyable too. As a […]
Quick business lunch option with tasty dishes and friendly service: Restaurant 1 Komma 7 (4. September 2023)
Whenever I go to the Restaurant 1 Komma 7, I find the experience quite lovely. All in all, especially for lunch, they make sure you have everything you want and need within a very reasonable amount of time. I went for the “soup of the day” (CHF 11.70) to get started, which was sufficiently tasty […]
A lovely vegetarian pop-up experience with surprisingly tasty dishes: Hannibal’s Alpenüberquerung @ Chez Murr (1. September 2023)
The Chez Murr is a pop-up I have tried to attend a few times already – and finally, I managed – on very short notice – to attend once. The concept is rather simple, you pay for a set menu incl. wines (CHF 185.00) and then you get whatever is prepared. This time, the motto […]
A truly unique experience when you get a full fresh tuna to enjoy: all tuna series Nr. 13 – Bluefin & Champagne @ Restaurant Sala of Tokyo (31. August 2023)
Taking about a unique experience when it comes to tuna, then you definitely have to try the “all tuna series” in the Sala of Tokyo! It’s an event, which happens once a year, and only has space for a limited number of people – and I get why. Firstly, the price is rather heavy – […]
