This is a very famous restaurant in Zurich.
There were few people at the entrance, so I thought it was just a casual restaurant, but later I found out it was quite famous.
The onion soup and the main course were not very impressive, but the desserts after the meal were chestnut cake and Tirami Su. The desserts were really rich, especially the chestnut cake, which was not only sweet, but also had a light wine aroma. I dare say this is one of the best desserts, and you must try it if you have the chance to go to Zurich.
After a walk on Bahnhofstrasse, I checked in at the Armory Cellar Restaurant, which was built in 1487. The meat was very good, delicate and dense, and the sauce was amazing. The Internet celebrity restaurant [snickering] The food is really OK in Europe [sad] The quantity is large. I also drank the recommended local drinks [not simple]. The boss is very nice, an old man, and he came over to chat with us [haha]

The local specialty food, cheese hotpot, is served with bread crackers, but I also added eggs and other things. It tastes very good, and the business is very hot. The outdoor seats at the door are also full.
It was a very special experience for a tourist who had never tried a cheese hot pot and the food was great

Great hot pot a must for a Swiss holiday. Pear/pineapple is highly recommended to set aside to increase the acidity of the hot pot
The restaurant has a warm and comfortable atmosphere, the dishes are creative, and the cheese hot pot is worth tasting

This is a restaurant affiliated with the Marriott Hotel, specializing in Swiss cuisine. The service of a restaurant under a five-star hotel is of course impeccable. The fat middle-aged uncle at the door always showed us a "mysterious smile" every time he saw us. This was the most standard smiling service during our trip to Switzerland. When ordering, we were not sure which white wine tasted better. The waitress selected wine for us to taste again and again, and finally made us embarrassed. The decoration of the entire restaurant is very unique. In the center of the restaurant, there is also a cable car cabin with some models of Swiss specialty foods. You can tell at a glance that they are made in Switzerland. As for the dishes, they all tasted good, but I can't remember the names. We ordered three dishes, two of which we had ordered before. They were all special Swiss dishes recommended by the waiter. To explain these dishes in a popular way, they are beef potato cakes and grandma's stewed beef. Only my husband tried something new and ordered a sausage and mashed potatoes. The taste was also very recommended. I recommend it.
The entree's tender juicy leg of lamb with baby carrots and mashed potatoes fully reflects the chef's skill, perfectly matched with the Amaroni de la Valpolicera wine

The fried pork chops and vegetables are great. They are full and delicious.
The Swiss style on the taste buds is not only a dish, but also a life attitude, a persistent pursuit of quality and tradition. Each taste carries the history and culture of the city, making people linger and immersed in this unique Swiss cuisine style..🍤 [Specialties]:🧀Classic cheese fondue Classic cheese hot pot When the exquisite pots are served, a cheese feast is opened. In the pot, the nut aroma of the carefully selected Swiss cheese Gruyère cheese and the rich milk aroma of Emanthal cheese are intertwined, and under the slight heat, it gradually melts into a thick golden stream, and the rich atmosphere of cheese comes in, instantly igniting the appetite. Recommended index: 🌟🌟🌟.🥩 Schnitzel paniert Fried pork chops carefully selected pork spine meat, the meat is fresh and juicy, the texture is clear, full of pure fresh pork. After beating, the meat chops become softer, and then wrapped in flour, egg liquid and bread, the three-fold delicious magic blessing, just to wait for the baptism of hot oil. Recommended index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟.🍖Sliced veal "Zurich style " Zurich veal with potato shredded cake fresh and juicy veal is the main character of this dish. The finest beef parts are carefully cured to absorb the essence of various spices, but without losing the mellow flavor of the beef itself. The veal after cooking is attractive in color and slightly golden in appearance, with a seductive aroma. Cut down, the fresh meat is unobstructed, the gravy slowly oozes out, the mouth instant taste spreads on the tip of the tongue, delicate and soft, each mouth is like a gentle dialogue between beef and taste buds, rich meat fragrance echoes in the mouth for a long time.

For my first dinner in Switzerland (it would be supper in China [covering face][covering face]), I found a restaurant ranked second in reviews - Le Dezaley's cheese hot pot is definitely ranked first, haha, I like beef liver and steak. In addition to authentic cheese hot pot and sweet bread, there is also wine brewed from the Dezaley region. Although it is relatively expensive, it is really worth it!
The taste is pure and unique, the environment is clean and the service is thoughtful and meticulous

The owner of this sausage shop in Zurich's Stirnen Orange Shop has opened three or four chain stores in the local area. There are many types of sausages sold in it, but the price is also relatively cost-effective. I recommend that you must try the double stone cheese sausage in this store, which feels particularly delicious.
Meat lovers can try this restaurant. Their meat is particularly fresh. Due to the good business, you don’t have to worry about eating leftover meat. The meat is also very chewy when you chew it in your mouth.

It was delicious and the staff was friendly and welcomed us with a smile and the menu was in German and English. The special menu for the day was around 18 euros, with entrees (vegetarian, white and red meats) plus soup or salad - my husband ate it and it tasted great; and I ordered a Rosti grilled sausage, which was a good choice.

The local Swiss dishes here are very popular. The pizza is good, similar to Italian snacks. The dessert after the meal is also quite unique, with lots of cream and not very greasy.
