A great place for a burger dinner – and an absolutely massive calorie intake: Restaurant The Bite (7. July 2025)
It’s a good 10 years ago since I’ve last been to The Bite, but I figured it was time to go for another round of burgers – and frankly, I was a little surprised that the place has actually survived all this time. In any case, once you’re seated and had a look at the menu, within a useful timeframe, someone shows up to take your order. I went for “The Bacon (thick-cut bacon, sweet potato chips, pickled red onions, garlic aioli)” (CHF 31.00) with extra “jalapeños” (CHF 3.50) and “chili cheese fries” (CHF 5.00). Honestly, this is a calorie bomb, but a delicious one. The burger patty was cooked perfectly medium rare as requested, and the whole thing is just very tasty.
The place is rather small and crammed (if the weather is bad, since you cannot sit in the outside space, which is being used when it’s sunny). The staff is friendly, but it takes a while until you get the beverages – other than that, you get a great burger experience for a very fair price, and all of it relatively swiftly. I would highly recommend you to book your table in advance.

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.
