Absolutely delicious dish selection worth re-visiting: Restaurant Gaijin Izakaya (31. May 2022)
It’s approximately two years ago since I’ve last been to the Gaijin Izakaya and I must say I wonder why I haven’t been since – the place is super nice. I went for “The Vaccine (gin, basil, lemon, Mango ‘caviar’)” (CHF 18.00) to have a starting drink – and it was totally enjoyable. Then, since […]
A great place to have lunch in the little backyard patio: Restaurant Bernerhof (31. May 2022)
It’s approximately 3 years ago since I’ve last been to the Restaurant Bernerhof – and what I was not aware of, is that they have a nice patio in the back of the restaurant where you can actually sit outside. They are offering a generous and delicious lunch menu (CHF 28.00) which started this day […]
A lovely streetfood experience where you’d not really expect it: Thai Street Food im Preußenpark (29. May 2022)
To be fair, the Preußenpark is not necessarily a place I would just walk to from afar since the park itself doesn’t really have anything to offer, as a park. However, since I was in its vicinity, it was time to pay it a visit, and it turned out to be quite amazing since every […]
When the art in the restaurant triumphs all the rest: Restaurant theNOname (28. May 2022)
I was recommended theNOname by a friend and was quite intrigued by the interior design of the place. Since they basically only offer a tasting menu (8 courses, EUR 110.00) it was a rather easy choice what to eat. And it went perfectly with the ‘wine pairing’ (EUR 69.00). The evening started with a few […]
Great to hide from the bad weather but not much more: Restaurant Drachenhaus (28. May 2022)
Although I have been to Berlin a multitude of times, I never made it out to Potsdam – this weekend was the time to do so, and I must say that Potsdam, and especially the Sansouci Castle are actually quite amazing to see – even if the weather was as bad as it was this […]
Great for a cheap lunch menu if you’re patient – and only then: Restaurant Dudu 31 (27. May 2022)
Sometimes, you find quite nice places where you would not expect it and especially the fact that they offer very reasonably priced lunch menus is quite appealing. However, you have to be quite patient since the service is friendly but not necessarily the most attentive. I went for the business lunch menu (EUR 12.90) which […]
A nice pop-up where you need to be patient: Pop-Up Restaurant Rössli Garage Albisrieden (25. May 2022)
Sometimes you’re lucky, and the pop-up restaurant is in walking distance from home – like this time. The Pop-Up Restaurant Rössli Garage was organized in the former Jaguar Garage and was set quite nicely. It looked, at first, that the place was not going to fill up, but I suppose it was really just that […]
Grossly overrated and not worth visiting: Restaurant The Wild Goose Grill (22. May 2022)
FALSE ADVERTISING! That’s what this place is all about. It’s trying so hard to be something it’s not. The 4.7 Rating on Google is in no way justified. The place looks rather old (okay, one can always argue about taste) in terms of its interior design. Sure, things don’t have to be ‘modern’ but you’re […]
