The perfect location to enjoy your lunch in the summer sun: Restaurant PURO – The Social Club (20. May 2022)
It is a bit ago since I’ve last been to the PURO, but it remains a good address also for lunch. I went for the “cold, refreshing cucumber soup, refined with Philadelphia” (CHF 8.50) which was nice in terms of flavour and actually really refreshing given it was about 30° C outside. What was bothering me somehow was the ice cube – since it didn’t melt away until the end, and then you are just left there with a soup bowl and an ice cube.
The “Puro Salad Bowl (leaf salads with avocado, quinoa, crispy corn, pomegranate seeds, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, radish)” (CHF 27.00) with “Angus beef filet stripes” (+ CHF 15.00) was a nice main course. The salad offers everything – it’s big enough, so you’re not hungry again after one hour as it is rich in the variety of ingredients, and it is tasty in terms of flavours – thus bringing in a play of different textures.
What I like about the PURO is the atmosphere – you get to sit outside in the sun, and it’s just very enjoyable. And, on top of that, the staff is super friendly and attentive, making sure you get everything you need and want.
That being said, just make sure that you have booked a table in advance, as else you do not stand a chance to get a table on short notice.

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.
