Great for white wines, but not for food: Restaurant Katrépices (21. February 2024)
The Katrépices is a nice little restaurant, which has a lovely wine selection and offers a set of different tapas. When it comes to the wines, I was positively surprised to find two white wines I found super enjoyable, despite the fact that I’m not the biggest fan of white wine. However, it turns out […]
Absolutely breathtaking interior design and good Italian pasta: Restaurant Amore Amore (20. February 2024)
The place deserves its name ‘Amore Amore’, especially, because it has a very romantic interior and is truly lovely in terms of design. You feel comfortable right away, when you sit down, and the staff is friendly. However, they are a bit slow when it comes to taking up the orders. Once that has happened, […]
Perfect for a late night dinner if you need food swiftly: Restaurant Moments @ Marriott Geneva (19. February 2024)
It was time for another late night dinner, and the Moments is excellent for such moments. I went for the “old-fashioned soup (cream of Jerusalem artichoke soup, herb crumble, truffle pearls)” (CHF 19.00) as a starter, which was quite okay. It was nice and tasty, but it was also somewhat overpriced for what you get. […]
Decent selection, but available 24/7: Restaurant canteenM @ citizenM Geneva Hotel (14. February 2024)
Due to the high occupancy in the city, I wasn’t able to stay in the same place I usually stay, so, I decided to go for the citizenM as a hotel. And frankly, the place is great in terms of location and the rooms are very functional. Frankly, though, they aren’t great. What is quite […]
A decent business lunch option: Restaurant Le Lyrique (7. February 2024)
It’s a bit ago since I’ve last been here, but sometimes coming back to the same place isn’t a bad thing after all. I went for the “côte de cochon fermier de Jussy (confit d’échalotes au jus, mousseline de pommes de terre au beurre et petit mesclun)” (CHF 39.00), which was surprisingly good. Personally, I’m […]
Decent option for a late evening dinner: Restaurant Moments @ Marriott Geneva (7. February 2024)
What I like a lot about the Moments is the speed in which the dishes are served. After having taken a seat, it was only a few minutes until the food was served. What wasn’t served, though, which I find even more confusing, is some sparkling water I had ordered at the same time. Only […]
Delicious Peruvian dishes in a sister restaurant of Astrid y Gastón: Restaurant Yakumanka (16. November 2023)
The Yakumanka has been on my to-do list for quite a while, so finally it was time to try it out. Once you’re seated, they provide you with “fried corn and a spicy sauce”, which was a bit tricky to eat, but actually quite enjoyable as a little snack to get started. I went for […]
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 […]
