A truly outstanding game season experience: Restaurant Adler Ried (14. November 2020)
The Restaurant Adler Ried is not really located anywhere central, however, the drive there absolutely pays off. It is of pivotal importance to book your table way in advance as there are quite a few places which offer game, however, the variety of game you’re getting here is quite unique. The whole evening started with […]
Authentic Swiss dishes but incredibly slow service: Restaurant The Swiss House (14. November 2020)
It is sometimes quite surprising where you find a nice place to enjoy a good lunch. Or let me put it that way, I hadn’t expected to find tasty Swiss dishes in a golf club restaurant. The Swiss House offers exactly that though – delicious, simple, Swiss dishes in a nice atmosphere. We started with […]
Only available for a few days but so damn worth it – Metzgete @ Restaurant Falken Wiedikon (3. November 2020)
I must be honest – I would never have walked in the Restaurant Falken just like that but since they had been recommended for the Metzgete in the Gault Millau newsletter, I decided to give it a try. And I tell you, it’s absolutely worth it to come here! The concept of the “Falken Metzgete” […]
When it’s so lecker you have to return: Osteria La Cantinella (25. October 2020)
Although I had just been here two days ago, I decided to come back since the tajarin with fresh truffle (“home-made tajarin with butter and fresh white Alba truffle sliced on it”) (EUR 40.00) was just absolutely outstanding. The good thing about little place which are family-run is the fact that they recognize you when […]
Worth the travel – No. 29 in the world: Ristorante Piazza Duomo (24. October 2020)
Talking about being lucky. Just the last Saturday before Italy went into lock down of restaurants at 6pm again, I was able to spend an evening at Ristorante Piazza Duomo in Alba, No. 29 of the world according to The World’s 50 Best. And I must say that it is a truly unique experience – […]
Perfect mix of modern and traditional dishes: Osteria La Libera (23. October 2020)
The Osteria La Libera is an upper-class Osteria and more like a typical restaurant as the interior design is modern and appealing and doesn’t have any traditional elements of a classical osteria. That doesn’t make it any more less appealing though. You have to book in advance as else you will not stand a chance […]
Lovely place for a pre-dinner drink: Bar @ Corte Gondina (23. October 2020)
The Corte Gondina in La Morra is a lovely, small boutique hotel which is located perfectly between Alba and Barolo so between Truffle and Wine. And they have a small bar which is great to eat and drink something before going for dinner. The selection of open wines is rather limited but if you are […]
Perfect for a late afternoon wine pit stop: Easy Così Wine Bar Barolo (23. October 2020)
If you are looking for a simple place where you can get a glass of wine and something to nibble on, I can definitely recommend you the ‘easy così wine bar’ – the place is tiny (about 4-5 tables) and there isn’t really much you can get but some wine, sparkling wine or beer and […]
