Amazing location with outstanding service: Restaurant Zum Goldenen Schäfli (22. January 2020)
What I really like about the Zum Goldenen Schäfli (besides the interior design of the place) is the quality of the service. The waitresses are friendly, competent, and swift in what they do. And they combine that professionalism with a nice hint of joviality in a very pleasant way. I went for the “onion cream […]
Good lunch offering with swift and friendly service: Restaurant Facincani (21. January 2020)
What I like about this restaurant is the fact that they have a rather generous starter soup which is included in the lunch menu – “tortellini al brodo”. The soup itself is rather average but the fact that they put quite some tortellini in it makes it more pleasant. And they are actually also delicious! […]
Perfect Italian experience with a very local twist: Restaurant Baratella (20. January 2020)
The Baratella is always good for a solid Italian dinner – I went for the “insalata con fegato” (CHF 18.80) as a starter which was a decent portion in terms of size and the quality of the fegato was actually good so it was a rather pleasant starter. As a main I went for the […]
Surprisingly good service and good Italian dishes: Restaurant Sorrento (17. January 2020)
Somehow I have never been to the Sorrento before but it turns out to be a friendly Italian which also offers delicious dishes. I went for the “ravioli burro e salvia” (CHF 21.00) which was not a massive dish in terms of size but the quality of the food was great – the filling was […]
Great lunch but weak service today: Restaurant Du Théâtre (17. January 2020)
I somehow always end up eating more or less the same when I’m in the Du Théâtre but today I decided to go for something else and ordered the “Beef Curry ‘Sri Lanka’ with rice” (CHF 39.00) which was a decent portion for lunch but compared to the other dishes they offer for lunch it […]
A simple little restaurant with delicious meat dishes: Restaurant Ojo de Agua (15. January 2020)
It is a good 5 years ago since I’ve last been at the Ojo de Agua in Frankfurt and when I walked by today, I definitely felt like I should pay the restaurant another visit. I was lucky as I was the last one to get a meat course (given they only prepare specific amount […]
Amazing lunch and service experience: Restaurant O’Premier @ Hotel Metropol (13. January 2020)
It’s about three years ago since I’ve been to the Restaurant O’Premier and frankly, I wonder why, given the O’Premier is actually making sure you have a great lunch experience. I went for the menu of the day (CHF 38.00) which started with a “roasted cauliflower soup” which was incredibly tasty and also quite a […]
Decent airport food – but just that: Restaurant TGI Friday’s (12. January 2020)
As I somehow hadn’t managed to eat something during the day, I was super hungry before take off and given the food selection at BCN isn’t overwhelming, I decided to go for TGI Friday’s which offers the “Friday’s Signature Burger (we’ve got the recipe for happiness: two 100g burger patties with our Fridays Signature Glaze, […]
