26. August 2014: Restaurant George
I have been to the Restaurant George a couple of days before to have a drink – and by coincidence, I landed at the Restaurant George again for lunch. Part of the lunch menu was a “tomato buffalo mozzarella salad”. The tomatoes were not ripe yet but the buffalo mozzarella was aromatic and very tasty. […]
25. August 2014: Restaurant Razzia
The Razzia is a rather new place in Zurich why I obviously had to give it a try. Starting with “Rino’s Grand Cru Foie Gras with roasted brown bread” (CHF 24.00) I must admit that I was only taken to another level by the size of the portion. The foie gras was okay in taste […]
22. August 2014: Restaurant Frascati
The menu comes with a small salad with Italian dressing making the start for lunch rather light which is perfect on a hot and sunny day. The “Polpettone di Manzo al Vino Rosso” (CHF 26.50) is at heart a rather simple dish but the meat loaf was actually very aromatic – especially in combination with […]
20. August 2014: Restaurant ViOR
The “BBQ Burger with bacon, coleslaw and French fries (190gr)” (CHF 25.00) was quite okay. The meat was fine but not exactly medium rare as requested. The bun was of a good consistency but a bit too soft and not really cripsy enough. The French fries on the other hand were quite good as they […]
17. August 2014: Restaurant Sonnenberg
I am not often at the Restaurant Sonnenberg but each time there is a Chaîne event, I consider it worth going to. This time it was the summer event where the grill was on full heat. As a starter several amuse bouches were offered ranging from “spare ribs” to “pulled beef burgers”, “salmon tatar”, “cucumber […]
16. August 2014: Restaurant Don Weber
What you get at the Restaurant Don Weber is real Mexican food! Just kidding – it is the Americanized version of Mexican food. However, even this can sometimes be really tasty. I had the “starters platter (chicken wings, BBQ, potato skins, albondigas, onion rings, quesidallas, corn chips with salsa, sour cream and guacamole”) (CHF 15.00 […]
16. August 2014: Restaurant Ah-Hua II
Having a discussion about eating out very frequently and often in restaurants which were rather high in price, my friend recommended me to enjoy lunch at the Restaurant Ah-Hua II where the food is good and the prices are low. Always curious to find places which serve good food, I went for the “Thot Man […]
15. August 2014: Restaurant Quaglinos
Sometimes there are weeks where you end up eating the same over and over again – and somehow this week it was “foie gras” as well as “entrecôte café de paris”. In any case, I decided to have “foie gras de canard, compote de pommes et brioche” (CHF 19.00) with an additional slice of “foie […]
