Felchenfilet und gemischter Salat
Sometimes you know you’re getting scammed the minute you walk into a place. The Moenchhof am See was just such a venue. It’s located right on the shore of the lake of Zurich and it shows pretty clearly that their locations is so great, people will fight for a table no matter what. Nevertheless we sat down and ordered. The poor waiter was scrambling he had a lot of tables to look after. I ordered a mixed salad and some smoked whitefish. The salad was lacking any effort, the cheapest stuff one could find at the engros market, cut up and dressed with a sauce from the 12 gallon jug. The whitefish was okay, the sauce however again a cheap bought-in and just look at the chunks of iceberg salad. Overall go here for drinks and enjoy the view. The food won’t make you happy even at these prices:

This is a no-go place. Service since years a catastrophe and the owner is a real asshole.

I can only return the compliment to my fellow (and favourite) blogerette – I get really hungry when I read your late night Tweets about the snacks you serve. I envy your husband. 🙂

Hehehe! That’s a real precise review. I gave the Mönchhof am See my own Naming as the “most expensive Wurstbude” at the Lakeside, because it never deserve the name “Restaurant”.
