St. Gallen (CH)
A solid choice as always: Restaurant netts (22. October 2019)
While my very first visit ever to the netts (probably in 2007 or so) was really a disappointment due to the non-satisfactory service, it has become a place I like to frequent when in St. Gallen. I went for the “curry soup with coconut foam” (CHF 14.00) as a starter and it was perfectly balanced […]
Absolutely lovely first-floor restaurant: Restaurant Bäumli (8. Oktober 2019)
The Restaurant Bäumli is one of the few remaining ‘first floor restaurants’ in St. Gallen and it is super lovely in terms of atmosphere. The place is rather small (at least on the side towards the entrance) but very cozy and comfortable. The service welcomes you in a friendly way and makes sure you are […]
Delicious game dishes in a fish restaurant: Restaurant Blume (30. September 2019)
Somehow I haven’t really managed to pay many Goldener Fisch restaurants a visit but given it was the 25th anniversary of the club, I decided to give one of these restaurants a try. It all started with an “amuse bouche” which was some kind of spinach roll which was good to start. The “chanterelles foam […]
Huge Italian lunch portions: Restaurant Mamma Assunta (23. September 2019)
One thing you won’t be when you leave the Mamma Assunta is hungry! I went for the “corn salad with egg with home-made Italian dressing” (CHF 11.00) as a starter which was quite a portion! I mean, I honestly believe that you are actually done with the salad (and if I’d have known that, I […]
The perfect(ly) swift Italian lunch: Restaurant Mamma Assunta (18. September 2019)
What I like about the Mamma Assunta is the fact that they manage to provide you with tasty dishes within no time and all of it with a very friendly service and for a fair price. The “Gnocchi al Gorgonzola” (CHF 21.00) are definitely one of the dishes which are quite hot and you have […]
A delicious Michelin star experience: Restaurant Neue Blumenau (17. September 2019)
The restaurant “Neue Blumenau” has been on my to do list for approximately 6 months but so far I never managed to pay it a visit – today it was finally about time. I went for the “tasting menu” (CHF 152.00) and the “wine pairing” (CHF 45.00). The dinner started with “dry cured meat, shaved […]
Outstanding Entrecôte de Paris: Restaurant netts (16. September 2019)
Whenever I have been to the netts in the past, it was almost always for a formal event with a menu which was comprised of a couple of courses. Tonight, I decided to have something smaller – also due to the fact that I only found time to eat something around 9:30pm. It is always […]
Great service and average dishes: Restaurant Olivé @ Radisson Blu St. Gallen (12. September 2019)
If you want to eat at the Restaurant Olivé late at night make sure that kitchen is still up and running. Although the official announcement of the restaurant on its homepage is warm kitchen until 10pm, we ended up not getting any food the last time we tried at around 9:30pm although we had called […]
