27. November 2011: Restaurant Vapiano
A large mixed salad (CHF 16.50) with beef stripes (CHF 5.00) is as good as it usually is in a Vapiano – no matter if in Stockholm (Restaurang Vapiano) or in Munich (Restaurant Vapiano). So, quality is reliable, sound and good. Definitely nothing to complain there. The place itself is also pretty nice – the […]
23. November 2011: Restaurant LaBaracca
A great experience which started with lamb’s lettuce, cherry tomatoes, bacon, and croutons (EUR 4.90). The salad was fresh, the bacon intense in taste but not oily at all, and the croutons crunchy and tasty. As a main course I had a pizza with goat cheese, asparagus and mushrooms (EUR 7.90). While the pizza is […]
20. November 2011: Restaurant Golden Dragon
The evening started with an amuse bouche “rack of veal” which was tasty and promising for the rest of the evening. We had to wait a bit until it was brought to our table but at least when it was brought, we were able to order. The idea of having two different dishes at a […]
20. November 2011: Restaurant Hänggi’s
The Puschlaver pumpkin cream soup with a cream hood (CHF 11.00) is refined with chive, pumpkin seeds, and pumpkin seed oil. The soup is creamy and has the original taste of pumpkin. The sausage-cheese-salad with garnish (CHF 19.00) is quite good too. The cheese is a bit heavy, the salad is good though and the […]
19. November 2011: Restaurant Waldhuus @Sheraton Waldhuus
The starters buffet offers a nice variety of different starters: salmon, ham, goat cheese, melon, tomato mozzarrella salad, as well as a large salad buffet. The salmon was very rich in taste, the marinated goat cheese on the other hand was not that outstanding especially as they offered twice the same. But overall, the selection […]
14. November 2011: Restaurant Atelier Gourmet
The first course of the menu was a “Parmesan mousse with pecan, winter salad, and pomegranate vinaigrette” (EUR 13.50). While the whole dish tasted good, the parmesan mousse was somehow not fluffy and light enough. But it was good in taste and the pomegranate vinaigrette was really tasteful. The main dish was a “Jewfish au […]
12. November 2011: Restaurant nooba
The “Beef Fried Rice” (CHF 30.50) with beef filet strips, fried drice, spicy basil, bamboo, hearts of palm, black-eyed peas, onions, and chili is astonishingly rich in taste. While I was expecting a rather boring dish, I must admit that the fried rice was very tasty, the beef filet was absolutely tender and of good […]
11. November 2011: Ristorante Pizza Züri
The Pizza Pepe Verde (CHF 21.50) is quite good but a bit too oily (additional toppings CHF 1.00 each) but at least the crust is pretty thin and, therefore, the pizza is good. Also, the toppings seemed all fresh and even the price is very reasonable for Zurich. Comparatively to the pizza, 0,5L Passuger cost […]
