A great bar – but one you can, unfortunately, still smoke in: Vertu Sophisticated Bar (16. December 2021)
After the first try, it was time to find a place which would offer you drinks without having a clue where to go, Google was my lifesaver again. The Vertu Sophisticated Bar does not entirely promise what the name says. I mean, it’s a bar, and it’s nice. But I wouldn’t call it sophisticated. However, […]
A nice little bar – booking recommended: Karel Korner Bar (16. December 2021)
It’s been a while since I’ve been to Lucerne trying out a bar or two – so I had to ask Google where one could actually enjoy a nice drink. Turns out the, Karel Korner Bar is a good place for exactly that. The place is relatively small but it offers a decent drinks menu. […]
Still the same as 8 years ago and still good: Restaurant Opus (28. September 2021)
It is years ago (2013) since I’ve last been to the restaurant Opus and it hasn’t really changed at all. For me, this restaurant is the restaurant equivalent of ‘never touch a running system’. The place has exactly the same layout and seems to have remained the same in terms of friendliness of the staff, […]
Absolutely atmospheric location and good dishes: Restaurant Villa Schweizerhof (19. September 2020)
It is years ago since I’ve been to the Villa Schweizerhof which back then was called “Villa Häusermatte” (see review) and I must say, I liked it back then and also this time, it was definitely a great experience. Once you’re seated, some bread with olive oil is served. Once you’ve ordered, the menu starts […]
Traditional restaurant with decent food: Restaurant Schweizerheim (21. July 2020)
The Schweizerheim is frankly not a place I would have walked into, but as my sister recommended it, I figured, it’s worth giving a try. And I must admit that it is actually absolutely enjoyable. The place is relatively simple and the location isn’t the best as it is next to the main road but […]
Great traditional Swiss dishes with jovial service: Restaurant Old Swiss House (7. June 2020)
I walked past the Old Swiss House a number of times and somehow I never felt like going in but since it had been recently recommended to me by friends, I figured, it’s a good location to give a try for father’s day. We had booked a table in advance and since it was only […]
The perfect place for a pit stop during a helicopter flight: Restaurant Rose-Beizli Schwesteregg (17. August 2019)
It was the first time that I’ve ever flown a helicopter and I must say it is an absolutely unique experience definitely worth doing if you have the chance. Besides the adrenaline you have flowing trough your body, there is one more thing which makes it rather amazing . the fact that there are so […]
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 […]
