A safe space for good food but with slow service: Restaurant Le Lyrique (11. February 2025)
It’s about 5 months ago since I’ve last been to Geneva, and somehow I had also been to the Le Lyrique back then. Well, seems, this is my “go to place” somehow. And I must say besides the fact that the tables are a bit small and quite close to each other, I actually like […]

An absolutely delicious Italian lunch option in Geneva: Restaurant Osteria della Bottega (16. October 2024)
It’s almost 2.5 years ago since I’ve last been here, and given the place was rated rather well on Google, I figured I want to visit this place, and only figured when walking into it that I had been here before. As a starter I went for the “uovo in camicia, crema di topinambur, castagne […]

Remains a good choice for a swift Asian business lunch: Restaurant Susuru (18. September 2024)
After almost a year it was time to retun to the Susuru and it is still the same as before, it just has more customers (at least that was my impression). I went for the “Karaage Petit” (CHF 9.50) as a starter, and I must say the chicken was generally okay, but a bit too […]

A great starter, but a bit disappointing meat for a steakhouse: Restaurant Safe Meat 2 (17. September 2024)
The restaurant landscape in Geneva is far from great, so, it’s not always easy – depending on the area you’re in – to find something, which looks appealing. The Safe Meat 2 had about 35 5-star ratings on Google, which is obviously a bit fishy, but then again, there weren’t many alternatives around, so, I […]

A great option for lunch since you get good food for a bargain: Restaurant Le Lyrique (17. September 2024)
It’s a bit ago since I’ve last been to the Le Lyrique, but it turns out to be a popular spot for business lunches, so, I ended up here again. We went for the “menu complet” (CHF 42.00), which is incredibly fair priced! The whole menu started with a “tartare chaud de légumes (condiment de […]

A delicious Peruvian dining experience: Restaurant Pachacamac by Cecilia Zapata (3. September 2024)
Finding a restaurant last minute isn’t that easy if you’re looking for something a bit better – but luckily, the Pachacamac by Cecilia Zapata still had availabilities. Since they offered a “Menu Dégustation ‘Pacifico’” (CHF 99.00), I decided to go for that. The evening then started with a “mushroom wonton”, which was nice in terms […]

Always a good option for a meaty lunch, but with varying service quality: Restaurant Wine & Beef Fusterie (3. September 2024)
It’s more than two years ago since I’ve last eaten here, so, it was absolutely okay to try this place again. As they are basically famous for one dish, it was clear that we would go for the rib-eye steak lunch menu, which started with a “green salad”, which was actually great. I like the […]

Tasty dishes, but incredibly overwhelmed service staff: Restaurant Le Bologne (2. September 2024)
The Le Bologne was rated rather high, so, I decided to give the place a try. The fact that it took them about 10-15 minutes to bring the menu and take my order should have been warning enough. Sure, I get it, there are quite a few people, but frankly, it was a bit of […]
