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 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 […]
A delicious dinner offering with attentive and friendly service: Restaurant Natürlich (24. August 2023)
Given it was quite late already for dinner, and I was somewhat hungry still, I decided to go for Natürlich since it had a relatively good rating. Once you’re seated, you’re brought some “bread and butter” and I must say the focaccia was great, and the butter was nice too. As a first starter, I […]
A nice location, but lack of flavour when it comes to meat: Restaurant Les Sales Gosses (24. August 2023)
The Les Sales Gosses has a nice little terrace with high tables where you can comfortably sit outside when the weather is nice. If it’s too hot, as it was that day, it becomes a bit tricky, though, to sit outside. I went for the “tagliata de boeuf (faux-filet tranché, roquette, Grana Padano et antipasti […]
Excellent service, but relatively disappointing breakfast options: Restaurant Glowing @ Hotel President Wilson, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Geneva (24. August 2023)
It is years ago since I’ve last stayed at the Hotel President Wilson and I did not really remember how the breakfast buffet was, so I was curious to try it again. It has quite a nice selection ranging from savoury elements … … to yogurt and fruit … … salmon and curd … … […]
