19. July 2013: Restaurant Corney & Barrow
The “Lime Rock Salt Pan Fried Norwegian Sea Trout, served with yellow pepper sauce, wilted spinach and buttered new potatoes” (GBP 13.95) was absolutely delicious – with one shortcomming. It was actually not sea trout but much more salmon! Still, the salmon was absolutely delicious with a very hefty salt crust a smooth and tender […]
17. July 2013: Kunsthallencafé am Karlsplatz
It is about 8 months ago, I have been here and already back then I thought it is a nice place but now that it is summer I must say the place is even nicer. I went for “vegetarian dips (hummus, guacamole, beans) with pita bread” (EUR 6.50) as a started which was quite rich. […]
16. July 2013: Restaurant Morton’s @Summerstage
I have been here before and somehow I decided to return! This time I had “fried chicken stripes with a potato rockte salad with roasted pumpkin seeds” (EUR 8.90) and I must say that the chicken was nicely juicy, the potato salad rich and the roasted pumpkin seed provided it with this little special kick. […]
16. July 2013: Restaurant Ottimo
The lunch started with an “cold apple curry soup” which was rich. Thick and intesne in taste it was a good start and it actually kind of continued with the main course. The “chicken filet in white wine thyme sauce with rice” (EUR 7.50 – including the soup) was good. The filet was still a […]
15. July 2013: Restaurant Kyoto
The “Bulgogi Bento” (EUR 10.50; marinated beef and vegetables the Korean way, Kimchi and rice) was definitely not outstanding. I mean, it was eatable, no question, but nothing much beyond that to be honest. The meat was of very poor quality, the rice was fine (okay, not such a big challenge) but at least the […]
14. July 2013: Restaurant Les Rochats
It is years ago I have last eaten snails so I figured it was about time to try them again so I ordered a plate of six “Escargote” (CHF 10.50). Nothing much has changed since I ate them last: they do not taste like much but like the sauce they’re served in only this time […]
13. July 2013: Restaurant de la Ferme Robert
Finally, I got my fondue for the day – well, it was not a meat fondue but at least a cheese fondue. And I must say it was actually quite good and was very nicely enriched with garlic (and fair in price considering the price of CHF 35.00 including breakfast the next morning). The place […]
13. July 2013: Restaurant Le Soliat
When you have reached the Creux-du-Van by foot you definitely deserve to eat something – I was looking very much forward to a Fondue Bourgignon but unfortunately we were told that this is not possible anymore because they had run out of it. Well, interestingly enough they sitll served fondue quite some time later. So: […]
