Swiss cuisine is not all about Fondue and Raclette (even though I could live on Fondue) and there are many delicious Swiss restaurants you can visit around Zürich to deep dive into the Swiss culture and dishes. In Zürich, one of the most famous dishes is the Zürcher Geschnetzeltes - a veal dish served with a creamy mushroom sauce and Rösti on the side (many restaurants make it but in the list you’ll find the ones I like the most).

You can’t come to Zürich in the summertime without going to at least 2 or 3 Badis - Badis are outdoor swimming areas and Zürich is not only full of them but also very famous for them (it was named #2 best city to bathe in worldwide by CNN if you don’t believe me!) The Badis in Zürich are quite unique and they range from upper scale historical swimming houses to laid back chill out spots by the river, some you have to pay for while others are free

Brunch in Zürich is a serious deal and you sometimes have to reserve weeks ahead if you want a spot in one of these delicious spots! I started this list a while ago and was never really sure when to make this blog post go live as I kept adding places on a daily/ weekly basis as there are just so many great ones.

If there is one thing that Zürich does well its Cafés and specialised Coffee places. I love breakfast / brunch and love to discover new places and in Zürich it sometimes feels like I will never stop discovering as a new places opens up every week it seems. I therefore decided to start this blog with my favourite and some of the most special cafés in Zürich also as a guide to you so you can see where you can do take away, dine in, what kind of food options away you and what kind of special coffee you can drink.

When I first moved to Zürich I really struggled with finding nice wine bars where I could enjoy a good glass of wine and have some tapas or finger food on the side. Most places I found were also restaurants and you were expected to also have dinner or it was bars where they didn’t really have a dedicated wine list and you would have your usual Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Verdejo selection for white wines.

St. Moritz call themselves “Top of the World” and once you arrive you completely understand why. Everything is a little bit extra in St. Moritz and everyone is a little more ostentatious than they are back home once they arrive. All the tourists flocking to Engadin and especially to St. Moritz have made it possible for so many delicious restaurants to open up in such a small space.
