Our current six favourite restaurants

No plans this evening? Then we know what you can do. You do have plans? No problem, this is better! We will show you our current favourite restaurants in Zurich and surroundings.

Maison Manesse

Feel like a little lavender-mascarpone crème with blueberry ice cream? Preceding that for example gnocchi with mushrooms and spruce shoots or mangalica pork chops or cod with Jerusalem artichokes, saffron pear, chanterelle mushrooms and sesame. You will be spoilt for choice. The wise connoisseur orders the Maison Experience consisting of six courses with the accompanying alcoholic beverage and can leave the Michelin extolled restaurant hours later with a warm stomach and the comforting knowledge of not having missed anything.

Bauernschänke

”Sharing is caring“ is the motto in Bauernschänke in Niederdorf. On the menu: pork belly gröstel (fried potatoes with meat) with Shiso radish and lettuce, aubergine Tatar with herb salad and crisp bread or braised meat ravioli with sage butter and parmesan and other delicious dishes from the head chef and linker of senses, Nenad Mlinarevic. The dishes are made to share, of course it could be the case that you, once you have tried it, are no longer in the mood to share.

Huusbeiz

Huusbeiz is located between Lochergut and Albisriederplatz on Badenerstrasse. It is a stylish and extremely comfortable local pub with honest, good Swiss cuisine. Metzgete (traditional hearty dish with warm blood and liver sausage and boiled pork) is on offer in Huusbeiz from 12th until 14th November in line with the „Nose to Tail“ philosophy. It is served in the form of an elegant 5-course menu and promises – to quote those making the dishes – a big mess. The whole menu costs 94 Swiss francs; if the accompanying wine is served, there is a supplement of 49 Swiss francs.

Gamper

Gamper restaurant welcomes its guests from Wednesday until Saturday. You cannot book a table, just call in spontaneously. In general, a table opens up after a short waiting time (at the wine bar) and Gamper is always worth the wait. The dishes by Marius Frehner are seasonal and strongly reduced to the basics like everything in Gamper. There is no menu; instead a sensational 5-course surprise menu is served.

Trube Zollikon

Trube in Zollikon, directly beside a small cheese shop, captivates with an inviting atmosphere and tasteful furnishings. You actually feel at home here before you have even sat down. The gourmet cuisine by Claudio Obrecht then ensures that you will want to stay seated for as long as possible. Such is life: You sometimes get what you expect – you often do not – and in rare cases you get much more. Then you order ricotta gnocchi and think to yourself, the restaurant has 14 Gault Millau points so they will be really good gnocchi, but then, then they are the best you have ever had in your life.

Fedt

When you enter Fedt (Danish: cool), you immediately comprehend: Those responsible here are passionate about what they do. The concept is aimed towards vegetarian and vegan cuisine that surprises and delights. The Churros on caramel for example are simply a poem, however in no way outshine the other dishes. The pop-up is open until 18th December – and will then hopefully remain forever. And if it is the case, that the joy you give to others comes back to you, then the head chef and innovator, Alain Pinto, must be a very happy man, because his dishes promise pure joy.
