Delicious Middle Eastern food worth trying when in Geneva: Restaurant Arabesque @ Hotel President Wilson, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Geneva (1. September 2024)
The Arabesque becomes one of the places I truly enjoy for dinner when in Geneva – because they have great Middle Eastern food, swift service, and, on average, fair prices. I went for the “Hommos Lahme (chickpea puree with thinly sliced sautéed beef with pine nuts)” (CHF 26.00), which tasted a bit differently than last […]
Okay food, but very inattentive service: Restaurant Moments @ Marriott Geneva (16. July 2024)
Given I’ve had an early flight the next day, I was looking for a quick dinner and something to enjoy – the “local filet of beef (180gr), Moments butter sauce, local French fries” (CHF 54.00) was okay. The meat piece was rather small and the fries were not as crispy as I like them, but […]
A decent alternative, but on the rather expensive side of things: Restaurant Glow Bar @ Hotel President Wilson, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Geneva (15. July 2024)
I was a bit surprised that there aren’t too many options in the Hotel President Wilson, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Geneva during busy season when it comes to dinner. Given I’ve just been to the Arabesque a few days back, I was looking for another option, and decided to eat something at the Glow Bar. […]
Decent Arab food, but ridiculous pricing: Restaurant Arabesque @ Hotel President Wilson, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Geneva (12. July 2024)
The restaurant Arabesque is a nice restaurant serving Arab food and in a relatively high quality. I went for the “Hommos Lahme (chickpea purree with thinly sliced sauteed beef with pine nuts)” (CHF 26.00) and the “Tabbouli (tomato, crushed what, parsley, mint, lemon, olive oil and onions)” (CHF 18.00), which were both great, although, a […]
A bit disappointing breakfast for a luxury hotel: Restaurant Glowing @ Hotel President Wilson, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Geneva (12. July 2024)
The breakfast option at the Hotel President Wilson, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Geneva is decent, but considering the average price for the hotel room plus the fact that this is a luxury hotel, the selection is a bit disappointing comparing it to other hotels in a similar category. The selection ranges from traditional European breakfast […]
Friendly staff, but loud atmosphere: Restaurant Oh No Lulu (11. July 2024)
Since it was rather a last minute decision to meet up for something to eat, it wasn’t all too clear where to end up, so, we picked a place, which was just around the corner. The “Oh No Lulu” (sounding like Honolulu) offers some of these “to share plates” like the “expérience gourmande (dégustation de […]
Great for white wines, but not for food: Restaurant Katrépices (21. February 2024)
The Katrépices is a nice little restaurant, which has a lovely wine selection and offers a set of different tapas. When it comes to the wines, I was positively surprised to find two white wines I found super enjoyable, despite the fact that I’m not the biggest fan of white wine. However, it turns out […]
Absolutely breathtaking interior design and good Italian pasta: Restaurant Amore Amore (20. February 2024)
The place deserves its name ‘Amore Amore’, especially, because it has a very romantic interior and is truly lovely in terms of design. You feel comfortable right away, when you sit down, and the staff is friendly. However, they are a bit slow when it comes to taking up the orders. Once that has happened, […]
