31. May 2015: Luma Delikatessen @ Street Food Festival No. 3
I obviously had to try a second little dish and when I passed the “Luma Delikatessen” and saw the “Pata Negra Burger” (CHF 9.00) I knew I had to try it. And I must admit, I was disappointed. I have had Luma beef before and I was positively surprised – my mind wasn’t blown away […]
31. May 2015: Dolder Sports Bad @ Street Food Festival No. 3
Unfortunately, I only managed to pay the 3rd Street Food Festival a visit shortly before they closed – which obviously was a situation where not all food trucks had food available anymore and a lot of people were roaming between the trucks making it not really a too pleasant experience. However, it is worth visiting […]
29. May 2015: Whiskey Tasting @ Vinothek “Zum alten Stall”
I am no big fan of whiskeys and did not become one after this event either. However, I figured for myself there are whiskeys which I might potentially like. The event took place in the framework of the “Chaîne des Rôtisseurs”, respectively the “Ordre Mondial de Gourmet Dégustateur, OMGD” and accounted for CHF 130.00. The […]
28. May 2015: Restaurant King’s Cave
I have heard and read a lot about the Restaurant King’s Cave – and only positive things so far. And I must admit I can only confirm that impression. The “Black Angus Entrecôte (300gr), King au gratin with herb butter” (CHF 55.00) looks a bit megre at first – but it is very delicious meat. […]
27. May 2015: Welschanschauung: Wine & Sausage
I only randomly got to know about this event – and while I was definitely a bit sceptical how people would come up with the idea to pair wine and sausages, I must admit that the event was great. For CHF 65.00 you had the chance to taste the combination of six wines in combination […]
25. May 2015: Kafi Dihei
Although I have been driving by quite a couple of times in the past already, I never managed to pay the “Kafi Dihei” a visit. Finally, it worked out and it is absolutely worth visiting. The place is very atmospheric, a bit alternative, but also very lovely. I only got to drink something but the […]
22. May 2015: Restaurant Das Leben ist schön
The “linguini freshly prepared in the parmesan with fresh truffles” (EUR 17.50) sounded more promising on the menu as they actuall were. The pasta was close to perfectly al dente but lacked a bit in taste. For the fact that they are supposedly prepared in parmesan it was a bit of a disappointment. The truffles […]
21. May 2015: Restaurant 20/20 by Mövenpick
I have had a couple of glasses of wine downstairs in the Mövenpick previously but never got to try the Restaurant 20/20 on the first floor and I must admit it is absolutely worth trying as the food is great! The “lunch menu” (CHF 40.00) started with an amuse bouche “marinaded duck breast with corn […]
