25. September 2011: Restaurant Pumpstation
The crispy fried perch costs CHF 18.50 and the crispy fried perch is quite crispy and quite fried but there is not much fish to it which is quite disappointing. I’d say, if there was more fish to the whole dish, then it could be quite tasty but like that it is really nothing recommendable. […]
16. September 2011: Café Cord
The zander filet from the grill in prosecco lime sauce with glazed emperor’s shells and scented rice (about EUR 11.00) is quite okay. The prosecco lime sauce fits well with the zander and the rice, the emperor’s shells were not really cooked enough. The fish was quite okay though but nothing overwhelming. The service varies […]
10. September 2011: Restaurant @Tryp Congress Hotel
The breakfast in the restaurant at the Tryp Congress Hotel is quite okay. The offer a nice selection of different breads, juices, fruit, joghurt, cold cuts, cheese, teas, and you can even press your own fresh orange juice from real oranges. While the cold cuts selection is not very big, it is quite okay. The […]
9. & 10. September 2011: Restaurant Besitos – Tapas y más
The Restaurant Besitos Taps y más has a nice selection of different tapas. We decided that a selection of six different tapas should be enough for two people – and it definitely was. The Gazpacho (a cold Andalusian tomato soup; EUR 3.90) was good in taste, refreshing, but quite a large portion. The Cangrejos en […]
9. September 2011: Restaurant LuMina
The bread basket with some kind of mayonnaise based sauce is not really overwhelming. The bread is good but the sauce-like mayonnaise is tasteless – it does not even taste much like mayonnaise. The main course on the other hand, salmon with herb butter and tomato pasta (EUR 11.00) was okay. The pasta was overcooked […]
8. September 2011: Restaurant Turbinenhalle
The “Spiegelplatte” (mirror plate) (CHF 23.50 per person; available only for 4 people and more) is quite big but also offers a great selection of different cold cuts, cheese, tatar, spring rolls, chicken breast, fried fish, melon, tomato, radichs, salad, and bread. The tatar was quite tasteful, the cold cuts pretty fresh, the cheese good […]
8. September 2011: Restaurant Zen in the Westin Grand Hotel
The bento box (EUR 9.50) as a lunch menu is quite a good choice. At first (on top of your actual bento box) you get a soup served – while it is nothing really special, it is quite okay in taste. After you’re done with the soup, the waitress comes and takes the top of […]
7. September 2011: Brenner Grill Bar
The Brenner Grill is a bar as well as a restaurant – while the restaurant (and the large grill in the middle of the restaurant) looks pretty appealing – I only had the chance to try out the bar that night. To start off with the most important: the drinks. I had a Mojito Classico […]
