Brunch at the Gartenhof

Sportsman Club is gone again just like the World Cup. At the Gartenhof the remains can still be seen, but that adds to the charm of the place. I was there for brunch on a Sunday. The breakfast consisted of bread, Zopf, croissant, Birchermüesli, orange juice, jam, honey, butter, egg, bacon, cherries, salmon, ham, roast beef and cheese. Now I wasn’t to thrilled with all of the components, the Birchermüesli and the fresh cherries really stood out. The croissant was a bit dry, the 3 minute egg could have been a bit firmer and the roast beef didn’t feel like roast beef. The staff were extremly friendly, very attentive and it was very pleasant dining and reading the newspaper here. I was even offered a glas of prosecco which make the breakfast at 25 CHF a good deal:

  1. Go back and stay for dinner! I’d like to know your opinion 🙂

  2. Well, I did it myself. And it was great, really. I love their Menu, it’s special but still down to earth (frische Marktküche, with a touch italian). The waiter was very nice, the food great. I have heard from others that the serving size at lunchtime is a bit small, but we had dinner and it was more than enough. My italian friend took me for the best espresso afterwards – at pane e olio. Molto bene!
