No reservations, only walk-ins – but worth the little wait: Restaurant RIKI RAMEN BĀ (23. March 2026)
This place used to be a burger restaurant, but somehow it seems it hadn’t survived, so, now it has turned into a ramen restaurant. So, I was curious what it is like and got here a bit earlier than I had planned, so, I had to wait at the bar until a table was available. […]
A great ramen place in the middle of the French alps – with an attitude: Restaurant Unkai Ramen (21. March 2026)
Even during Tomorrowland Winter, if you go early in the day, I think we went at 4.30pm CET, you won’t have to book your table in advance but can actually just walk in and score a table. Hence, here we were. We started with “edamame” (EUR 5.00) … … and “wakamé salad” (EUR 6.00).. The […]
Second choice, but still decent, especially during TML Winter: Restaurant La Pomme de Pin (20. March 2026)
Frankly, when going to Tomorrowland Winter in L’Alpe d’Huez, you need to make sure that you book a table in advance, as else, you won’t stand a chance to score a table unless you’re patient and can wait for quite a bit. We found the “La Pomme de Pin”, which wasn’t necessarily first choice, but […]
A nice pop-up experience in a very traditional location: Freundeskreis ide +Alprausch-Fabrik (19. March 2026)
It’s a while ago since I’ve last been to a Freundeskreis.li event, so, it was about time to give these guys another chance. This time, the location was the +Alprausch factory, which was superb in terms of interior design! You didn’t have a choice, so, you got the “Tasting Menu” (CHF 105.00), which started with […]
Superbly swift service with a surprisingly delicious offering: Restaurant Aimy (17. March 2026)
I wasn’t quite sure where I should go for dinner, so, I decided to go for a place I hadn’t visited yet and which was listed on the Guide Michelin. The Aimy was quite full, especially for a Tuesday evening, and I felt lucky to find a spot. I decided to go for a couple […]
Great Asian dishes with excellent service – booking required: Restaurant Kuchi Mitte (14. March 2026)
The Kuchi Mitte has been on my to do list for quite a while and we finally managed to pay it a visit! The evening started with the “green caterpillar roll (crab meat, tangerine, avocado, mayo, cucumber, ikura)” (EUR 14.50), which looked a bit boring, but turned out to be rather delicious, actually. The salmon […]
Returning 9 months later, and it’s still good: Restaurant Frühstück 3000 Schöneberg (14. March 2026)
I’ve been here about 9 months ago and was quite curious how it would be when returning. Turns out, it’s still quite fine. I went for the “steak tartar (60gr; sesame vinaigrette, pickled egg yolk, anchovy mayo, pickled red onions, smoked salt almonds)” (EUR 15.00) as a starter, which was good, but had so many […]
Hands down, one of the worst experiences in a long while: Restaurant di Russillo (13. March 2026)
The place was not necessarily what one calls appealing when you walk by, but given it has a 4.7 on Google with quite a few reviews, I figured it might be worth a try. The “antipasto misto di verdure (mediterranean vegetables, grilled bell pepper, mushrooms, zucchini, eggplant, and melanzane all Parmigiana)” (EUR 16.50) was decent, […]
