If you want to do stupid, then go here. Prices in Switzerland are ridiculous and this place is the…read morecrown of what Switzerland "offers". "Speisen zu oeberhoehten Preisen" . The problem is that this is mostly the "standard" of charging too much for nothing special. I do not recommend eating in any Swiss restaurant.

This is the way with most of Europe. If you are in Basel this is a nice place to have a meal. I am sure you will enjoy.
