Wangen – You reach Flughafen Wangen and the restaurant easy by car, foot or boat. The set up is very simple. And the food is also simple but VERY good. Especially to mention the meat, you will not be disappointed. While you are eating your juicy steak and the crispy chips you can watch the planes take off and landing.
Zurich – In the new Zurich area Europaallee opened the restaurant Hin&Weg. I really like the interior of this restaurant, it is a mix of bistro, Mediterranean, cool venue you like to stay a little longer. The food is very fresh prepared at the buffet. They have a lot of varieties in salads, baguettes and soups for a good price, also to take away. The terrace invites to sit there also in the evening.
Lachen – Last Sunday we urged for a pizza after all the barbecuing. As we still wanted to sit by the water we went for Marina Lachen. You can also go by boat, they offer a few spaces. The service is very nice and the food is good. On a beautiful day you need to make a reservation. The same complex houses also an Asian restaurant and a steak house.
Zurich – I passed by this bar hundred times but never came round to go inside. Since I work now in the area and I went for lunch. Since then I went twice again because I liked it so much. The food is simple and good. Last week for example they offered “Wiedikerli” sausages from Keller Metzgerei as a menu for lunch – the one who know….know. The offer also a lot of beverages I haven’t seeen somewhere else, for example lemonade made of rhubarb. A great plus is obviously the comparatively big terrace with the look over the sihl.
In the evening and night it is a very nice little bar.
Zurich – Yesterday a friend invited to celebrate his 10th anniversary of his own communication company to Tapas del Mar. We were pampered with tapas and wine as well as stimulating chatting. The restaurant is the second after the first one was opened in Basel. The tapas are traditional Spanish (Andalusian style). There is also a terrace in summer on a street without cars passing by.
Zurich – Tatar from the Bison, sweet Hamachi with radish and avocado, egg 63° (poached for an hour at 63°) on asparagus, confit suckling pig (belly part) with lychees and anise, Melon with popping candy accompanied by cava and a great Swiss red wine from Döttingen “Weingut zum Sternen” (see pic). That was our food for the evening – a new relaxed “fine dining” restaurant that just opened 2 weeks ago and was packed with people.
Some may remember the former restaurant at this spot that was an old traditional restaurant where people went for their cordon-bleu, a beer or two, rooms kept all in dark wood. This was never very inviting for me…so I was very curious to see what happened to the place.
The guys from Maison Manesse obviously needed to use a lot of white colour to give the restaurant this all new look. What I like about it, you still can see this building whit its own live but that has finally received a well deserved rejuvenating cure. You can feel the people working at the MM love what they do and as a guest this is great.
The inside is kept all in white with beautiful old lamps and a particular tableware called Serax to give every dish its well-deserved framing.
Maison Manesse is costly, but its not a simple restaurant you just eat a pizza….so go and explore on your own!
Zurich – In the new opened trendy area around the main station of Zurich (Europaallee) there is this great restaurant. It offers something for everyone and divided in different areas: Coffee and cake in the morning, fine dining for lunch and dinner and apéro location with a terrace outside. The restaurant is just opposite the railway tracks.
The food and drinks are not cheap but the quality is good and the people that work there very nice. One of the guys even went to the kiosk to buy some cigarettes for my friend because they do not have a machine (yet). I really recommend the beef tatar (hot) or the James Joyce burger – the Loft Five belongs to the Carlton Group. I discovered a rare thing on the wine list, see pic, you can buy the “Lynch Bages” by the glass…

Zurich – Last Thursday I went with three friends to Geroldchuchi for lunch. It’s new open since some weeks and I thought as long as I work in the area I will give it a try. The ambiance is very … Continue reading
