Feuer und Flamme

This was the perfect dinner for one of the coldest days this winter. With the outside temperture of -10C, we were warmed up with some interesting fondues, which are not just the typical Swiss fondues but also meat fondues with interesting chocolate or chili sauces. Each plate also came with a nice salad with a good balsamico dressing and everyone shared around their fondues. The only slightly negative point was that we had to wait quite long (as we were quite a big group) but at the end everyone was pretty happy and completely stuffed. The restaurant had no wine list but a very big selection of wines from various countries. So the waiters kindly made some suggestions which we could try, ponder over before deciding on a selection.


We had a great night out with lots of chatting and it was pretty difficult to leave around midnight and return to the cold. By the way, a couple of people complained about the "stale" bread. Just for your information, bread has to be hard and a little stale before they can go into a fondue. Otherwise fresh bread will just crumble away and dissolve into the cheese!

I came here for a cup of coffee with a friend and ended up being rather disappointed. The service was friendly but a bit baffled.


We were asked twice for our order (which, I guess, is better than not being asked for it at all), they didn't have soy milk (I was offered bio-milk instead, as if it makes a difference to lactose intolerants) and the cappuccino I ordered was weak, weak, weak.


The friend I was with seemed to enjoy his Espresso Gelée, which I personally found much too sweet for my tastes. i enjoyed the fresh strawberries on his plate, though.


Probably won't come back here for a simple coffee, perhaps to try their fondue.
