A must-visit restaurant when you look for good food in Geneva: Restaurant L’Agapé (27. September 2023)
I have had a look at the L’Agapé a few times already, but finally I found the time to pay the place a visit. The place was surprisingly empty for a Wednesday evening, which is surprising because it is really a place worth visiting. Once you’re seated and have placed your order, which is relatively […]
A nice place with French bistro vibes: Restaurant Bistrot Dumas (26. September 2023)
The Bistrot Dumas was recommended on the Guide Michelin app as a BibGourmand find – hence, I decided to give it a try. It is a bit in the outskirts of Geneva, but worth the small travel (be it by bus or by foot). Once you’re seated, you get a small “amuse bouche”, which was […]
A decent place for Sunday evening – but nothing more: Restaurant Argentina (24. September 2023)
It’s not easy to find a restaurant, which is open on a Sunday evening – however, luckily, the Restaurant Argentina was open and in the vicinity of where I was, hence, perfect to visit. The place is relatively large and somehow feels like a ‘chain’ (but, to my knowledge, it isn’t). In any case, the […]
A well-hidden steakhouse worth visiting if you like meat: Restaurant Gaucho (21. September 2023)
It’s six years ago since I’ve last been to the Gaucho, and I somehow don’t remember why I don’t come here more often. The place is nice in terms of interior design, and if the weather is good, there is even a little terrace at the back, where you have your peace and quiet to […]
A place for a relatively quick lunch: Restaurant Laurent Exbrayat (21. September 2023)
The Laurent Exbrayat is more of a coffee shop than a proper restaurant, but they still offer a few dishes for lunch. I decided to go for the “chicken salad with rosemary and honey” (CHF 22.00) and it was actually surprisingly good. The chicken was tender and rich in flavour – the salad had a […]
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 […]
