A complete tuna sushi rip-off: Japan Restaurant BIMI (15. February 2017)
It is super nice if you receive a small amuse bouche from the kitchen – in this case an “edamame”. However, it was cold which is a bit unusual, at least in my personal experience. But, nevertheless, nice gesture. I went for the “Azabu – small portion (tuna pieces with different fattiness: otoro, chutoro, akami, […]
You wouldn’t enter – but you should: Restaurant Ban Sri Thai (14. February 2017)
Frankly, I would never have entered if it wasn’t for a colleague to bring me along – and it was a good choice. I mean, the place doesn’t look too appealing from the outside and the picture doesn’t change that much when you’ve entered. This is also true when you see the buffet (CHF 17.50) […]
Great lunch bargain for healthy and tasty dishes: Restaurant Gärtnerei (13. February 2017)
The lunch menu (CHF 19.90) is still a bargain as you get a drink, a soup and a salad for only CHF 19.90. The salad is freshly prepared in front of you. The monthly special is “The Burner” and frankly, it is quite a burner as it is a nice selection of good ingredients, rich […]
Nice place, tasty breakfast but limited selection: Café Clara (12. February 2017)
The Café Clara is hidden in Maxvorstadt but it is definitely worth looking for. The place is small, quite crowded (reservation highly recommended) and the interior creates a cozy atmosphere. The benches are a bit hard to sit on so after some time it becomes a bit uncomfortable to sit. However, the waitress welcomes you […]
Hidden location but outstanding drinks and food: KOPPER (11. February 2017)
OUTSTANDING! Can’t say much more than that. I mean, there is one little flaw – you almost miss the place if you do not know about it. If it wasn’t for a friend’s birthday party, I would probably have never ended up here. But you should end up here! The place is tricky to find […]
Quite outstanding breakfast in a remote location: Restaurant Backspielhaus (11. February 2017)
When my friend told me that we would go to a place called ‘Backspielhaus’ I was rather skeptical as it sounded more like a bakery than a place to have breakfast or brunch at. And while from the outside it is barely visible (we drove by once), you are all the more pleasantly surprised once […]
When the food is better than expected: Restaurant Eppo @ Dorint Hotel Hamburg (9. February 2017)
While I as rather skeptical about what would expect me, I must admit that – in the very end – I was positively surprised by the offer the Restaurant Eppo in the Dorint Hotel had to offer. For lunch we were served a salad with some apricot chutney which was unexpected but I definitely liked […]
Rather limited breakfast but amazing suite: east Restaurant @ east Hotel (9. February 2017)
The “breakfast selection” (EUR 19.50) for hotel guests is quite decent but overall rather limited. I mean, you get everything from a nice selection of tea to … … a couple of other things like yogurts, fresh fruit, porridge, as well as fresh vegetables … … and cereals. But overall, the selection of dishes looks […]
