20. March 2013: Kronenhalle Bar
The Kronenhalle Bar is quite famous in Zurich – it is a long established place in the heart of Zurich and usually quite cramped – as it was this night. The place is quite 70ies and heavy furnished. The waiter was friendly, helpful but, unfortunately, misunderstood the special request of my company. My “Planter’s Punch” […]
20. March 2013: ONYX Bar @Park Hyatt Hotel
There are bad bars, there are normal bars, there are good bars, and then, there are amazing bars! The ONYX bar at the Park Hyatt in Zurich is definitely the later. The place is nice, welcoming but provides you with all the privacy you need. Of course, that is not all that is to ONYX. […]
20. March 2013: Restaurant Kubu am Opernplatz
I am not so sure about the overall rating of the Restaurant Kubu am Opernplatz, the last time I was there, the food was worse but the service was better. This time, the food was better, the service was worse. We placed our order for water after only five minutes – but then it took […]
20. March 2013: Dulce Chocolate & Ice Cream
Actually, the place is an icecream shop but of course in spring when it is raining outside, it is more a place for coffee. So I went for a “White Chocolate Macchiato” (EUR 3.80) which was delicious. It is basically a “Café Macchiatto” with junks of white chocolate! Damn sweet and damn tasty! The place […]
19. March 2013: Euro Deli
Euro Deli is the place to go on a Tuesday – afterwork party for all the bankers in Frankfurt. The nickname of the party – I found out later – is “Bankers & Bitches”. I actually believe that. The place was absolutely cramped when we arrived. But of course there was space for entertainment – […]
19. March 2013: Restaurant Die Kuh Die Lacht
The “Chef Burger” (two beef patties, crispy bacon, ketchup, fresh lettuce and cheese; EUR 8.00) is a god damn tasty burger! The extra layer of bacon (EUR 0.50) provides it with the perfect crispiness (once you made it there). I have had a lot of different burgers so far but this is definitely one of […]
19. March 2013: Restaurant Vapiano
I haven’t been to Vapiano in quite a while and I must say it was good to not go there. I mean, the food is still fine and the seasonal specials are – on average – pretty good too but overall, it is just average food. In any case, the “Pepper Ginger Soup” (EUR 4.00, […]
14. March 2013: Restaurant Altes Land @Hotel Grand Elysée
I have experienced quite a few hotel buffets but this is definitely one of the better ones I have tried so far. There was a nice selection of different salads, … … two kinds of salmon, roastbeef with freshly grinded horseradish, … … king prawns … … salmon with rice … … duck and potatoes […]
