Here the food is reduced to the taste Maximum

So fully, on an ordinary Wednesday evening? We are amazed-to medium-size building blocks, as we enter the Limmathof and are glad that we will be able to get in to, despite the lack of Reservation a table for Two.

all The more, as he meets all the Feng Shui criteria, We feel in harmony with time and space and could, if that would be necessary, even in a strictly Confidential discussion, without the need for wiretaps to be feared. But it is not. So we order a bit of Pinot grigio and patterns of the neat locality, which is recognised in comparison with last visit a few years ago, hardly more.

a few months Ago, the Limmathof has been thought of, namely, new and re-made: The interior is modern and yet charming, in addition to the dining area there is a Lounge-Bar, the card has more selection and Pepp, and last but not least, is Stefan Iseli, the former co-owner of the Café Boy, recently, a prominent new host is added.

a few
months ago, it was thought
of the Limmathof
newly – and re-made.

however, the most important pillar of the restaurant, namely its belonging to the Foundation's work chain Remained: The social project is engaged since 1994 in Zurich's gastronomy, and for the gradual professional Integration of disabled people.

But enough background, let's get to the most beautiful thing in the world – the food! My companion follows the recommendation and ordered the Marroni-oranges soup (9 Fr.). The ingredients, delicious, and married, delight the palate and mind; she is delighted, I as samplers bins also.

And yet, it is hard to believe, this ends up a Starter, "only" on rank 2. The reason was the Carne cruda (24 Fr.), I as a hot-blooded Lover of cold meat on the map, of course, can not be overlooked. Touted as the "Piedmont Tatar", and this nobility is the predicate, it is absolutely fair: There's a fine meat, a little olive oil, crusty bread – a meal, reduced to the Maximum of taste is not only fantastic, it is better, at least in Zurich.

now, You could say casually: Everything else is a side dish. But that would be a first, naughty, and secondly, wrong. Because both the hohrücken steak with fried potatoes, Eschalotte and mustard butter (32 Fr.) as well as the "Limmat pot" (meatballs, potatoes, peas, tomatoes, saffron, 28 Fr.) we are happy (however, I would have the question "can I get a no it bizzeli denies meh sii?" hardly, she would have been made).

is there anything Missing? Exactly, the wine. It is a "Les Brunes" from the Languedoc (9.60/dl). Because of its elegant power knocks out smoothly, we need to know where to buy it. Three employees try to solve the mystery, in vain. Finally, a bring a business card: "Call Mr Iseli, who knows." The Premium Service goes!

Restaurant Limmathof

the price-to-performance ratio
If even the grilled piece of beef (incl. Enclosures) remains well below 40 Swiss francs, there is a matter of opinion, of course, little. This was mentioned but: For people with grizzly bear hungry, the portions are perhaps a little small – which is bad, since it has a delicious dessert selection, including cheese.

Atmosphere
accommodation locally, which is in the middle of the week, despite strong competition in the area is practically fully acoustically but in a comfortable temperature? Much closer to the direct hit is unlikely.

Service
For stress-heads and otherwise harried contemporaries, the Limmathof, the part of the social project, the Foundation chain (see main article), a certain amount of challenge. Who is applying the necessary patience, they do not know here is a cordiality, as found in the Zurich gastro scene often.

— So one of the best public TRANSPORT
Tram No. 4, 6, 13, or 17 to a source of road, and there's a Minute in the direction of the viaduct arches running.
