Good lunch offering but not really when you’re in a hurry: Restaurant Saku (11. August 2020)

The Saku offers quite a good bargain for lunch – for CHF 28.00 only you get a small “sushi” as a starter which is rather simple but nice to get your palate started. But you don’t only get some sushi, but you also can also pick 0.5L lemonade. The ‘Yuzu lemonade’ I went for was good and refreshing.

More importantly, you get to pick your soup – I went, somehow as always, for the “Tantanmen (spicy miso base with minced meat, corn, egg, spring onions, nori and wakame)” version which provides a good balance between spicy and flavourful. And what is amazing about it – you will definitely have enough once you’re done enjoying the soup.

The restaurant has a little patio in the back which is quite lovely – the only problem is though that everyone wants to sit outside. Therefore, I would highly recommend you to book a table in advance in case you intend to sit outside and enjoy the sun. Getting a table on short notice is generally difficult and getting one outside is close to impossible.

I started the blog in October 2009, while living in Milan which I definitely consider to be one of the food capitals of the world. I was in touch with food since my early childhood (as my father is a former chef). Whenever I can, I travel the world to discover new places, to meet people but mostly to try local dishes and to find hidden gems! If you know a place worth going, please drop a line to: info@thediningexperience.org. Currently, I am a member of the following food-related associations: Chevalier @Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Zurich-Ville; Membre Gourmet Dégustateur @Ordre Mondial des Gourmets Dégustateurs [OMGD]; Gesellschafter @Goldener Fisch and Member @Slowfood Convivium Zurich City.
