10. July 2012: Restaurant Rüen Thai

The Thai spring rolls called “Poh Pia” (EUR 4.50) are crunchy and the thick fried crust makes sure that the fat transportes all the flavours.

The main course, the “Red Curry Pot” (red curry in coconut milk with Thai eggplant, bamboo sprouts, pineapple, mushrooms, tomatoes, green beans, and Thai basil with beef cut into strips; EUR 12.90) which is served with a bowl of rice is very tasty. The beef is not of outstanding quality but okay for the mixture of tastes. It is also nicely spicy but it dominates the other tastes of the beens and the sprouts.

The price is quite fair, also for the drinks. A pils accounts for EUR 2.30 as well as a Kölsch. The interior is okay – very average and the pillows on the chairs are definitely too thick (and respectively uncomfortable). The waitress is friendly but not very attentive. Plus it took them quite long to bring beer to the table.

Overall, the food is quite okay, the place itself is not very appealing though but if you are staying at the Hilton, it is a good place to just walk over the street and go there.

About the Author: Sven

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.
