Lovely atmosphere and outstandingly delicious pulpo: Restaurant Gül (16. July 2019)
When I had first visited the Gül, I was already very positively surprised as the place is atmospheric, there is a certain positive vibe to it, and it’s a bit different than many of the restaurants you find in Zurich. As it was a nice summer day, we were sitting outside and decided to go […]
Great location with good food and arbitrary service: Restaurant Razzia (15. July 2019)
I haven’t been to the Razzia for quite a while and finally it was time to give it a try and this time I went for a vegetarian option. As a starter I went for the “eggplant Ccarpaccio (feta cheese, pomegranate seeds)” (CHF 18.00) which was great as it was light, refreshing and yet very […]
A great place for a savory breakfast: Restaurant House of Marly (14. July 2019)
As I highly prefer savory breakfasts, I decided to give the House of Marly a try and get a “breakfast bowl” (EUR 8.90) which was absolutely delicious as it was a combination of fresh ingredients but in a rich and savory way so you would feel like you’ve already had lunch. The prices are super […]
A very authentic Russian Jewish dining experience: Restaurant Pasternak (13. July 2019)
I was a bit skeptical about a Russian place with Jewish cuisine but was actually very positively surprised – and not only because the price performance ratio is quite great but also because the place is nice and the serivce is super friendly. I decided to go for the “Menu Gorki” (EUR 35.00) which started […]
Decent but not worth queuing for: Monkey Bar @ 25hours Hotel (13. July 2019)
Somehow I have always so much about the Monkey Bar in any 25hours hotel and finally it was time to give the one in Berlin a shot. The place is absolutely crowded also on a Saturday afternoon – which was a bit surprising to me as the interior is definitely nice somehow and atmospheric but […]
Delicious ice cream in central Berlin: Gelateria Lecko’Mio (13. July 2019)
I almost walked past the Lecko’Mio but when looking inside I liked it quite a lot so I felt ‘forced’ to get in and then decided to have a treat – I went for two flavors, “Yogurt” and “Salted Caramel Ice Cream” (EUR 3.00) which was absolutely delicious! The lady behind the counter was super […]
Vegetarian breakfast with a very colorful bowl: Restaurant Avocai (13. July 2019)
I am always skeptical of place which promote vegan and vegetarian food too much. Yet, I was again positively surprised by the Avocai (it might have helped that my friend is vegetarian and, therefore, knows about vegetarian places). I went for the “rainbow bowl” (EUR 12.50) which was a combination of beet root, pumpkin, sprouts, […]
Delicious starters but weak main course: Restaurant Ki (12. July 2019)
The “edamame (green cooked baby soybeans with sea salt)” (EUR 4.00) were good and tasty but lacking a bit of sea salt – and the salt could have been chunkier which would definitely have made it better. The “avocado tatar with freshly diced tuna” (EUR 7.50) was actually lovely – although, for my personal gusto, […]
