Cafe Huusmaa, Badenerstrasse, Zurich

Menusalat

Rindsgulasch mit Spaetzli

Huusmaa opened recently near the Kalkbreite. I wander over for lunch since I happen to be in the area. One thing that strikes me a bit odd is that they have 5 dishes on the menu for a lunch with maybe 30-40 seats in the dining room. I think that’s a bit too much for a place this small. The small menu salat wasn’t dried properly which watered down the sauce and gave it a bland flavor. The main course was a beef goulash with spaetzli. The goulash hadn’t cooked long enough so there wasn’t that much flavor to it. The spaetzli were fried quickly, but a tad of cheese and butter would have enhanced the dish as well. I like Huusmaa for a coffee and reading the newspaper, I’m not sold on the lunch. They should reconsidered reducing to one or two dishes and making those spectacular. Prices:
