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, […]
Lovely Italian lunch menu in a French restaurant: Restaurant Les Trois Verres (6. July 2023)
Sometimes, things are a bit confusing. I mean, who would have expected that the Restaurant Les Trois Verres (French for “the three glasses”) would actually turn out to be an Italian restaurant? I sure didn’t. Well, in any case, I was happy to get a good business lunch option starting with a “green salad”, which […]
Quite a decent breakfast offering if you stay here: Restaurant Eastwest @ Eastwest Hôtel (19. January 2021)
It was the first time I was staying at the Eastwest hotel and was curious how the breakfast was going to be. And I must say it is decent – it’s far from a chain hotel breakfast buffet but the staff is welcoming, friendly, and takes care of you when you walk in. I went […]
Not a big difference if you order ‘bio’ or not: Restaurant Wine & Beef Fusterie (18. January 2022)
Sometimes you end up in the same place within a very short timeframe – and this was the case for the Wine & Beef Fusterie. Since their lunch menu is relatively uninspiring (as in there is basically just one kind of lunch), I decided to go for the ‘bio’ version of it this time. The […]
Good traditional French dishes with friendly service: Restaurant Bistrot du Bœuf Rouge (17. January 2022)
It isn’t entirely easy to find a place which is still open after 9pm and serves food – but I was lucky and found the Bistrot du Bœuf Rouge which offers relatively traditional dishes like the “Gratinée lyonnaise (Lyon style onion soup with grated cheese)” (CHF 14.00) which was absolutely enjoyable. The soup was intense […]
Great if you love entrecôte for lunch: Restaurant Wine & Beef Fusterie (6. January 2022)
It’s great when you find out that literally in front of your workplace, there is a restaurant which offers a nice lunch menu with a focus on beef. What you get is a “menu salad” which is nice in terms of the salad dressing. And then, you go for the “entrecôte (180gr) with ‘Wine & […]
Great Italian dishes where I did not expect them: Restaurant Osteria della Bottega (5. January 2022)
Somehow Geneva wasn’t a place for me where you’d find great Italian dishes – but you do. The Osteria della Bottega offers exactly that – as a starter I went for the “Uovo, Topinambur, Champignon e Aglio Nero” (CHF 20.00) which was a delicious dish to start – the intensity of the egg with the […]
Simple meat dishes in a cozy atmosphere: Restaurant Le Carnivore de Vieille Ville (4. January 2022)
If you’re in Geneva and it’s late in the evening, it’s not entirely easy to find a place which is still open – but luckily, the Le Carnivore was still open. The restaurant is located on the lower floor and is a bit tight in terms of space but they offer a decent selection of […]
