My recommendations

These are likely to change as I visit more and more restaurants – these are the places I’d take any Zurich or non-Zurich friend to for a good meal to be remembered:

Stefs Freieck, small menu, unpretentious chef, one of my favourites.

Filet of beef or horse served on a sizzling stone, great for males who like meat: Eisenhof

Restaurant Spice at the Rigiblick – we need more places like this.

Cafe Boy was the hottest place in Zurich in terms of food and remains the place to be for swiss style gourmet cuisine.

Markthalle is perfect for unpretentious dining with great and simple food.

Drei Stuben inspired by the 300 Mio CHF GCZ Deal – nice garden, nice restaurant, clean and well executed food.

Noma – the simply the pinnacle.

Alpenblick for the perfect Zürcher Geschnetzeltes.

Schlössli for old school Zurich food.

And for the record – the worst ever in flight meal I had was served by our favourite Airline.

Perfect business lunch at the
Weisses Rössli.
