Located quite remotely but worth the drive: Gasthaus Michaelskreuz (18. November 2018)
I think you don’t just ‘randomly’ end up in the Gasthaus Michaelskreuz as it is rather remote. However, it is definitely worth the short drive up the mountains as the place is cozy and lovely. As a starter, I went for the “hay cream soup, refined with white wine” (CHF 10.80) which was mouth-watering. I […]
Definitely an outstanding Sunday brunch: Restaurant Neptun @ Seehotel Sternen (21. October 2018)
I was told a lot about the Sunday brunch at the Seehotel Sternen – so it was worth to give it a try. For CHF 63.00 you get the buffet which consists of a ‘starter buffet’, a ‘salad buffet’, a ‘main course station’ and a ‘dessert buffet’. Additionally, you get two hot beverages and a […]
Amazing location for a lovely wedding dinner: Restaurant Friedheim (31. August 2018)
The lovely thing about wedding dinners is that they are always luscious and you can be kind of sure that the food is great. The Restaurant Friedheim is not entirely easy to find but worth the short ride up the hills of Lake Lucerne. The dinner started with an “amuse bouche” which was great to […]
Lovely view onto Lake Lucerne with good service: Restaurant Hermitage @ Restaurant Seehotel Hermitage (13. June 2018)
The “breakfast” (CHF 29.00) in the Restaurant Hermitage offers everything you need for a decent breakfast ranging from a selection of different cheeses … … to fresh fruit and yogurts … … fresh juices … … as well as cold cuts and vegetables … … plus a decent selection of different breads … … and […]
The place where you eat charcoal cheese and stone ice cream: Restaurant Rössli (6. April 2018)
Stefan Wiesner is also called ‘the witcher’ and after having had the pleasure to taste his “Tasting Menu Soil (vegetarian)” (CHF 195.00) which costs the same as the meat version. The place is super simple, so no need to dress up. Come here the way you feel comfortable. Stefan is passionate about his food and […]
A truly unique Italian experience where you wouldn’t expect it: Restaurant Grottino 1313 (16. August 2017)
Probably for more than three years I was trying to pay the Restaurant Grottino 1313 a visit but never actually made it. Finally, it was time to do so. When the weather is nice, you’re seated in a small but lovely decorated garden and shortly after you’ve taken your seat, you are served “salame and […]
Great for a brief snack: Restaurant Peperoncini (16. August 2017)
Sometimes, things happen out of a ‘pure need’. This time for example, I haven’t been eating anything the whole day until 2pm and before I was able to get to the next appointment, I desperately had to eat something so I ended up in the Peperoncini as it was close to my next appointment. And […]
Little café with limited attention in service: Bäckerei Hänggi (1. April 2017)
The Bäckerei Hänggi is completely packed on a Saturday morning – there are absolutely no tables free until you are ready to wait for a bit. When I finally scored a table, I was attended quite quickly and my “Mint Tea” (CHF 4.50) was served within minutes. However, after that, the attention of the waiters […]
