A great Turkish lunch experience: Restaurant Meyhanè (15. August 2023)
The restaurant Meyhanè is a nice alternative to most of the restaurants in the area. It offers Turkish food in a good quality in a nice atmosphere, friendly service, and for a fair price. I went for the “Meyhanè discovery (kadinbudu, fish balls, 4 varieties of meze)” (CHF 26.50), which is basically a nice assortment […]
Overpriced and underdelivered: Restaurant Sachi (13. August 2023)
The Sachi was rated quite high on Google Maps, so, I decided to give it a try. Given they hadn’t really figured the sequencing of our order, they started with the “Sachi style okoomiyaki” (CHF 18.00), which looked lovely, but frankly, was a bit too heavy, and not comparable to the way I’ve tried it […]
An exquisite place with excellent service: Restaurant Café des Banques (20. July 2023)
I didn’t have expectations when it comes to having dinner in Geneva because most places didn’t really blow my mind, however, the Café des Banques was a really nice surprise. The place is simple, and if it is warm, it is lovely to sit outside. Once you’re seated, you’re attended quite quickly and get to […]
A great breakfast buffet selection worth enjoying when here: Restaurant Moments @ Geneva Marriott Hotel (14. July 2023)
If you decide to stay at the Geneva Marriott Hotel because you’ve just been on a plane or are intending to get onto a plane somewhen soon from Geneva, then the Marriott is a good choice when it comes to the breakfast! The selection of dishes is rather impressive and it’s not just the variety […]
Clearly overrated and overpriced – but with a nice terrace: Restaurant Chez Philippe (13. July 2023)
I was looking forward to dining at the Chez Philippe, mainly, because the place was rated quite well, so, I was looking forward to a great meal and started with the “beef heart tomato gazpacho” (CHF 18.00), which was nice in terms of flavour and added texture through the vegetable cubes. However, the size was […]
Tasty Thai dishes on a nice little balcony: Restaurant Jeab The Fine Cuisine Thai (13. July 2023)
I did not quite know what to expect from the Jeab The Fine Cuisine Thai, but was rather positively surprised. The place is rather tiny, but if you book in advance, you get a table on the balcony in the back, which is relatively cool despite hot weather. So, make sure to book in sufficiently […]
Average, but swift business lunch option: Restaurant Brasserie Da Matteo (7. July 2023)
Honestly, the Brasserie Da Matteo is a place I would not necessarily have chosen when walking by, but sincce it was conveniently close, I figured, why not, and went for the lunch menu” (CHF 26.00), which turned out to be not that bad. The “salade de calamars” was good in terms of texture of the […]
An interesting and lovely seafood dinner location: Restaurant Fiskebar (6. July 2023)
I was promised quite an experience upon the visit of the Fiskbar, so, I was, by nature, curious about what I was to expect. I had ordered “Freya’s Flower”, but even as the waitress recommended me to try something else, I decided to stay with “Freya’s Flower”, but got served the “Torh Strenght (Linie Aquavit, […]
