Good but not agreeing with the top 5 TripAdvisor rating: Restaurant Stresa (1. June 2018)
The Restaurant Stresa is located in a residential area of Dresden where you can’t find much really but there is apparently restaurant No. 4 of Dresden. After entering the place, I was somehow a bit surprised as I had expected a bit more in terms of how the place was going to look like. But, […]
You can only remain vegetarian for two days if you visit this place frequently: Restaurant du Théâtre (1. June 2018)
Admittedly, it is a bit uncommon to come to the same restaurant three times a week. However, circumstantially, exactly that happened. Given I was still supposed to limit my meat intake, I was stuck with vegetarian (or vegan) options. Given I’ve tried the two options on the menu already, I thought to have the same […]
When you have a great chef but the service isn’t up to the task: Restaurant Kreis 6 (31. May 2018)
When it’s the day of the ‘slow and bad service’, it really is the ‘day of the slow and bad service’. Over lunch, it took them already ages to get anything done. And here we are again. Completely different location, completely different setup, however, the same speed of service. To be fair though, the rain […]
When it takes more than 30 minutes to receive the check: Restaurant Schützenstube (31. May 2018)
I have been to the Restaurant Schützenstube before and while I had liked the dishes, I despised the slow service last time. And well, nothing much has changed. The menu was brought rather swiftly to the table and I got my hopes up. I shouldn’t have. When we had ordered the drinks, it took them […]
Good salad offering and perfect to sit outside: Restaurant du Théâtre (30. May 2018)
And it was ‘Du Théâtre Time’ again! Again, still somehow not receptive to meat, I went for the “menu salad” as a starter as the miso soup contained beef. And it didn’t look exactly the same as the day before! This time, I decided to go for the second vegetarian option on the menu (which […]
Limited vegetarian offering but ideal for a business lunch: Restaurant du Théâtre (29. May 2018)
I’d say this was going to be the week of ‘du Théâtre’. Mainly due to the facts that it is conveniently close, you get to sit outside while not being exposed to a super busy street, the service is swift, competent and friendly, and the prices are super decent for Zurich. Given, I currently can’t […]
Tatar Monday without toast but caring service: Restaurant Brasserie Freilager (28. May 2018)
Due to proximity, convenience and the quality of the food, I keep coming back to the Restaurant Brasserie Freilager. Their “seasonal leaf salad” (CHF 11.00) is simple and luckily a bit more than a leaf salad with tomatoes, sprouts, and radish. And the sauce is, overall, also quite tasty. In my book, the price should […]
The foodie scene in Zurich becomes more and more advanced: Zurich Street Food Festival (28. May 2018)
The foodie scene in Zurich becomes more and more advanced with each year – and it is great to be a witness of the rapid development. The Food Zurich, respectively the Zurich Street Food Festival is the latest result of that. In the area of Hardturm, they have built a large tent with a variety […]
