On the negative side, the service proved somewhat disappointing. The tenant lady was polite, but rather cold and not overly friendly although I have some knowledge of the Swiss German language. Fortunately, the food was quite tasty, with focus on Swiss traditional specialties. As starter I chose the pan fried zander with homemade tartar sauce. Very good portion; however: the lemon wedge on the side was still frozen!! The chef could have at least sliced a fresh lemon! As main course the pan fried perch fillets proved very fresh: generous and delicious portion. Eventually I indulged myself with a classic winter dessert: ‘’Apfelchüechli’’ (let a local pronounce first! apple fritters along with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. Delicious but definitely not for the health conscious. Amounting to CHF75 the bill remained moderate (for Swiss standards . The very tasty food is unfortunately let down by the rather cold tenant lady hence the score of 3.

I quite liked it as it had its own character, like the old uncle that is always up for a good joke! The biggest surprise was the food! Plating from the same era, but the food was amazing! I have eaten in so many places and the taste was there!! We had beef and deer and they were perfectly done! And the side dishes were very tasty!
