Me and my girlfriend had been craving a hamburger but couldn't find a place anywhere around Lake…read moreComo. We went through a few of the towns (Bellagio and Varenna) and couldn't find a burger place. We went out tonight looking for a pizza place and the place we went to had closed the kitchen at 9 and told us there was a pizza place one street away and to go through a small alley. We walked by a sign of a 13 euro burger and decided to give it a try. For 13 euros we got a burger with fries and a beer. We asked the owner if we could exchange the beer for a coke and he did. We also asked for 1/2 a four cheese pizza which was amazing and pretty big for only 3.50 euros and the big one was 7. We ate it before we took a pic it. The burger was delicious!! Best burger I have had in a very long time, so good I decided to write my 2nd review because this place deserves to be known.

Before I knew I was staying in an igloo... all I was told was:…read morea) "I booked a night for us up in the mountains... but we're not staying a hotel." b) "Make sure you bring all your WARMEST clothes... and a bikini." HUH? I was surprised with a trip to the Iglu-Dorf in Engelberg! Not knowing exactly what to expect was definitely part of the fun so I won't give it all away in my review, but here are some HIGHLIGHTS: 1) Friendly, knowledgable, helpful guides that are fluent in English and German. 2) HUGE igloo. It's much bigger than it looks from the outside complete with a bar and dining room! 3) Beautifully decorated inside with detailed ice sculptures in every room. Every year the sculptures focus around a different theme; this year's theme was "Comics & Cartoons." Characters from The Lion King, South Park, Snoopy, and many others were all carved in ice. We had the Batman room! 4) Delicious dinner with charcuterie & cheese, mushroom soup, fondue, and prosecco! For dessert we had chocolate cupcakes and coffee gelato! They definitely feed you well. It's very rich and FILLING, but much needed to survive the night. 5) Lovely guided moonlit night-hike around the Lake at Engelberg. They provide the snow shoes and trekking poles (as well as a little nip of Jägermeister half way through!) 6) There is a jacuzzi/hot tub IN the igloo! (So that's what I needed the bikini for...) Take full advantage of this-- it's SO nice after the hour hike in the snow, and it'll really warm you up before you go to bed. 7) TOASTY sleeping bags! Arctic-rated sleeping bags are no joke, and staying the night in the igloo much warmer than I would have ever expected... I would totally recommend it to anyone who's looking for a new experience! It's an exceptional and truly memorable once in a lifetime adventure!

Sleep in an igloo A…read morenight at the Iglu Dorf is definitely a cool experience. There are a few places in Switzerland where they offer the night in the igloo. The one in Engelberg/Trübsee is with 1800m probably one of the lowest places, but with the Titlis mountain right beside it makes a fantastic two day trip and we had plenty of snow. After a small walk the dinner is served, Gerber fondue. I had better, but I didn't expect too much in an igloo. It is the experience that counts. At the bar various drinks can be bought. I don't recommend booking the special candle light dinner, as it is simply just means that you get a table for two alone and a bottle of white wine. Our group was an internationally mix of nice people. Hence mingling is no problem. The guides are very friendly and help to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The igloos are decorated with a different theme each year. I was a bit disappointed that there were no ice scupltures and not a classical ice bar. Maybe they change that next year. A cool thing is the Jacuzzi where you can have a hot bath and see the stars above you, as the igloo is open on the top at the hot tub. There is a heated room where you can get changed, so definitely bring your swimming clothes! The personal igloo room is nicely decorated and illuminated with LEDs. The bed is lined with fur and has a special sleeping bag. With a normal pyjama you will heat up the air and not freeze. The igloo is constant at around 0 degree, and I definitely did not feel cold during the night. We had a room with it's own WC. Else you may have to walk 40m to get to the public toilette during the night ;-) The breakfast is served early in the morning at the Alpstübli restaurant, which is a 10min walk from the igloo. All in all a very special experience, I definitely would do it again.

Thin crust pizza that's so good you'll want to eat all your crust. But really. It's manages to be…read moresoft and pillowy and crunchy at the same time. With just the right amount of saltiness and semolina and air bubbles. But I've zoomed in on the crust too enthusiastically. The menu is extensive, and has any Italian pizza lovers favorite combination (all languages available--at least English, French, German, Italian). The ingredients were perfectly farm-fresh. The cherry tomatoes on my buffalina pizza had a sweet sugary flavor profile. And the Buffalo mozzarella was thin skinned with a soft milky interior, just the way it should be. The sauce was simple--fresh tomatoes puréed. And it's like they knew me, because the condiment they brought to thr table was pimento oil, because I love being emotional when I eat. Clearly it worked because I'm in love. The amoré kind of love. FYI There's public parking just beyond the restaurant, so the time between parking and pizza is efficient. And service was very professional and kind.
