Gemischter Salat

Chnoblibrot

Spare ribs mit Pommes Frites
There are some places which take you back in time. The Sternen in Albisrieden is the typical swiss Garten Beiz. Remember when you used to go for a meal with your parents on a summer night ? You’d sit in a large garden under some trees, some of the fancy Hawai lights (green, blue, red, yellow) were put up for decoration. This decoration was all the rage in the seventies and it continues to be in tasteful garden restaurants. If you’re a smoker you’ll like the owner, he has a clear stance on what should be allowed in a liberal country and rightly so. The initial salad was almost a tiny bit special, since it featured yellow carrots. The garlic bread was probably procured at the gas station and tasted as such. Cheap, industrial prefabricated bread with a weird technical toping with a hint of artificial garlic. The ribs were better, not your southern BBQ smoked style but edible, fries were a bit soggy. If you’re looking for a time warp experience, this is the place to be. Financials:
