Upon arrival outside we were almost a bit confused if we had arrived at the right place but once we stepped in, the incredible selection of cooking books immediately caught our eye and got us excited. The dining room wasn't large and the warm decor made for a homey environment. We did find the sticky plastic curtains over the windows to be an odd choice however. The food itself was great, although mostly vegetarian. My favourite dish was a dessert made with elderflower ice cream. Other honourable mentions were the 5 year old cow and the delicious chicken broth paired with home made sour dough bread and butter. The sauces of two dishes were unfortunately completely over salted. All wines that were shown to us were natural. When I asked for something more formal, I was given a delicious, natural red wine to try. Trying so many natural wines was definitely new to me and I appreciated the experience. Over all I think the restaurant is a wonderful addition to the Zurich food scene but it wasn't good enough for us to be eager to revisit.

Great hosts and amazing food! Definitely worth trying it out! : read more Great hosts and amazing food! Definitely worth trying it out! :

There are two options to chose from: surprise menu or surprise menu with dessert. If you do not like surprise menus or are a picky eater maybe stay clear although preferences or allergies seem to not be a problem. We went for option one. The menu itself was well rounded and thought out and absolutely delicious. Each course managed to be better than the previous. What I liked a lot was the exact description where the food comes from and what was done with it. The passion for the food was very noticeably. I would consider the place a bit expensive but also considering what you get very fair good value. Definately a place I would recommend.
