Still the best place for breakfast in Warsaw: Restaurant Marconi @ Hotel Bristol, A Luxury Collection (14. January 2023)
It was somewhat funny – returning to the same breakfast place after almost 6 years. And it turns out the place looks exactly the same (or at least compared to what I remember). The Marconi is quite nice in terms of interior design, the service is professional, and the food selection is more than decent. […]
A place not to visit, not even for shisha: Alanya Cafe & Bar (13. January 2023)
I was looking for a place, which would serve shisha. And it turned out to be quite a tricky endeavour. Either, it would be a pseudo-fancy place where you could only get a shisha if you were buying a bottle of hard liquor, or then it would be something like this. The Alanya Cafe & […]
Okayish Italian food in central Poland: Restaurant Spacca Napoli (13. January 2023)
I was told a few times I should try the Spacca Napoli since the place – apparently – serves authentic Italian food. Usually, I would have gone for something authentic Polish, but due to laziness, I wasn’t able to find anything at short notice. Hence, I ended up here. And let’s put it that way. […]
When the spice is missing – good but rather straight-forward: Restaurant Neumarkt (12. January 2023)
It is about 7.5 years ago since I’ve last been to Neumarkt and I didn’t really have a memory of the place, so, it felt like going to a new place. As a starter, I went for the “potato leek soup (with crème fraîche and chive oil)” (CHF 14.00). The portion wasn’t massive, but it […]
A nice 1-stared Michelin restaurant, but nothing mind-blowing: Restaurant Le Table du Lausanne Palace (11. January 2023)
When it was decided to visit Le Table du Lausanne Palace, I was excited since the place sounded so fancy. And when you enter, it somewhat is. The view onto Lake Geneva is supposedly lovely (I mean, it was nice, but since it was already dark, you couldn’t really see too much besides the lights […]
Quite an interesting journey across the continents: Restaurant Eat Me (10. January 2023)
When I walked into Eat Me, I felt like I’ve been here already – and it turns out, I have. I haven’t visited many places, but about three years back, I had a client lunch in this place. I had generally a good memory of it, but didn’t consider it specifically fancy. That was mainly […]
Another decent Luigia lunch experience: Restaurant Luigia Lausanne (10. January 2023)
Life sometimes plays funny games. I haven’t been to any Luigia branch for a year, but ended up going to the Luigia in Zurich the day before. And this day, I ended up in the Luigia in Lausanne. I was expecting it to be rather crowded as well, but it turned out that it was […]
A perfectly swift and industrialised lunch experience: Restaurant Luigia Zurich (9. January 2023)
It’s almost a year ago since I’ve last been to the Luigia Zurich, despite the fact that I’ve driven by a variety of times. What keeps me a bit reluctant to go is the fact that the reservation process is not really what one would call efficient and user-friendly. Before you actually have the possibility […]
