«La Trattoria Freilager», Zürich

We will have to wait a little longer for the opening of Antonio Colaianni's fine dining restaurant in Zurich-Altstetten. The “La Trattoria Freilager - La Cucina Colaianni” is already open and should not be missed.

«Jägerhof», St. Gallen

The “Jägerhof” is St. Gallen's gourmet temple of good humor. And because it also cooks at a very high level of creativity, it is one of the most popular fine dining addresses in Eastern Switzerland.

«Fleuri», Bern

A summer oasis that needs to be found first: In the middle of the Botanical Gardens of the University of Bern, known as “Boga” for short, with a view over the River Aare, the crew of the “Strunk” event venue run a small café bar.

«Didi’s Frieden», Zürich

Whether on the terrace or in the winding restaurant, “Didi's Frieden” is a place where you can relax over lunch. 

«La Casetta», Ascona

The restaurant with its elegant terrazza is located directly on Lake Maggiore. The view and ambience? Stunning. Cuisine and cellar? Delightful.

«Burro Concept x Acid», Zürich (Pop-Up)

Zurich's best focaccia sandwiches! “Burro Concept is serving up a slice of Italianità at Acid until the end of August.

«Rooftop-Bar 1838», Zürich

Lake Zurich, Üetliberg, Fraumünster, Bahnhofstrasse... In future, sightseeing in Zurich will only take a few minutes. And that's if you've managed to get one of the coveted fifty seats in the “1838” in Zurich.

«Ornellaia», Zürich

The ristorante on Bahnhofstrasse, including the garden bar, is open seven days a week. When the weather is fine, you can eat outside under the trees, even in the afternoon. GaultMillau rating: 15 points.

«The Dining Room», Cham

Living room atmosphere and first-class cuisine: Christopher Knippschild & Johanna Hagen are the hosts.

«Hellys», Bern

The menu at “Hellys” is not large. But more importantly: one pasta dish tastes better than the next!

«Gasthaus zum Gupf», Rehetobel

It's best for wine freaks to book an overnight stay in the stately country inn, because what's stored in the impressive wine cellar with 30,000 items will make every vinophile's heart beat faster.

«Maimin», Bern

Thai noodle soups (“Guay Tiew”) that taste as if a Bangkok street kitchen, complete with cooks and inventory, had moved to Bern’s old town!

The Salzano family has been successfully running their charming country hotel near Interlaken for over 25 years - not least thanks to the work of their ambitious head chef Stephan Koltes.

«Da Enzo», Ponte Brolla

Among other things, you can currently enjoy spring-green ravioletti filled with formagella, ricotta, herbs and morels at “Da Enzo”. Off to warm Ticino!

 

«Mikuriya», The Dolder Grand
