A strong Mai Tai served in this great looking cup , standing in front of a scary totem! While sipping the quaffable drink I engaged in conversation with the other guests, talking about past and future vacations - there's nothing that would fit the restaurants theme more, wouldn't you agree? I also met the owner of the Maori Stephan Bernet and had a quick chat with him. A great host, very welcoming and young at heart . Later more, as he was presenting and elaborating the food and accompanying wine - so stay tuned It was the first time I was in the restaurant Maori and I really enjoyed the bar area, a great start to into a promising food journey - Aloha! 1st course the first course of the surprise menu was a dish from new zealand: roasted sweet potato soup with onion, maple syrup and oregano. wow what a great start! I loved this one and usually am not big on soups , it was thick and creamy and the maple syrup added a little sweetness. I asked one of the guest and he confirmed it is authentic. 2nd course sushi combo - two of each flambéed salmon and tuna sushi - usually not a big fan of sushi which is heated / seared and so forth (except eel)- but this was nice for a change and it felt fresh. The presenation was also great! 3rd course beef and reef - this gotta be the coolest name for a dish I've had so far. so simple, just switch out one character, yet so mysterious. What's the reef all about? First of all you have the tender, medium cooked slices of beef paired with the best prawns there are, black Tiger! A match made in heaven! then to add an exotic hint an Asian pepper sauce was chosen to top off the food There's also something for architecture buffs: a jasmine rice pyramid with a pretty flower on top dessert hula pie - this was the highlight of the menu! The classic pie from the Duke's Waikiki. A dream come true : macadamia ice cream with hot chocolate sauce, crushed macadamia nuts and whipped cream! Kona beer tasting: kona beer tasting - after the dessert we went back to the bar where Stephan Bernet introduced us to Kona beer - It's being brewed in Kailua-Kona since 1994, which is located on the big island of Hawaii I chose the Fire Rock Pale Ale - kinda fits the background. Enjoying a piece of Hawaii thousands of miles away! I want to thank Stephan Bernet and his team for this memorable dinner course and evening!

It is the first time I leave a restaurant because of the service…read more The table we were seated was wobbly in the middle of the way, under a tent with another large group which was shouting. I could not hear my wife speaking and I was uncomfortable, so I asked one of the waiter passing by if we could sit somewhere else. He looked around and said no. My wife asked then if we could sit inside. He told us we could sit inside, but the service would be slower. We said it is fine, we are on a date and have plenty of time. We went inside and ask to the same waiter where we could sit. He told us we could sit anywhere we wanted. We sat and a few minutes later another waiter, which was the one who took our order came and started aggressing us. Stating we cannot move without saying anything. We apologised and explained that we ask the other waiter and told us it was fine. He kept coming back shouting at us. We tried to explain and did not really understand why he was so upset. If we were not allowed to stay inside, we would not mind going back to our seat. But, we actually did not have an opportunity to speak. Finally, since the night was gone for us. I asked him if we could cancel the meal. I would pay for our drinks which were already made and we would leave. He snobbed us and left. So I left the money with the drinks untouched on the table. We went to another restaurant and had a lovely evening, but we still wondered what happened there. If he had previously a bad time and was already upset. I am sorry for him. Not an excuse to insult your customers though. Btw, we spoke German with him the whole time. My wife's mother tongue is Swiss German, she was raised here, but she is black. I speak Hoch Deutsch fluently. He spoke broken English to my wife.. which I find racist.

The lunch special (bowl of miso, 3 nigiri, some futomaki, and some simple roll slices) was less impressive --- clearly the tail end of the day's prepped rolls, with the rice a little soft for my taste. The fish on the nigiri was still great, and the futomaki were fun (sprouts?), but the plain maki were pretty plain, and the white miso was more crunchy (onion perhaps?) and less flavorful than most of the versions I've tried. Barfüsser claims to be one of the oldest gay-friendly bars in the world ("oldest continually operated", perhaps?). I stopped by during the after-lunch lull for a little sushi --- fine time to try the fish, but it was fairly quiet and didn't get much of a feel for the denizens.

Drinks were ordered including wine and sake and beer. When the drinks arrived, we were able to order a whole mess of sushi and that took about 35 minutes to arrive. A lovely plate and we demolished it. The food menu does have English pages, the drink menu (or at least, the one we were handed) did not. However, it had pictures and we were able to point to what we wanted and that all arrived without trouble. It is a lovely restaurant. Masks required when up from the table, staff masked, partitions between the tables and yes, COVID QR codes were checked and scanned. Excellent sushi, great service, a delicious meal.

So I started packing my bags, to leave Switzerland but halfway boxing my stuff up I decided to give Yooji's a try. It was for sure not super good sushi but acceptable enough not to move :-) Yooji'in Bellevue has two sections with two separate entrances but internally linked: one Kaiten-sushi (conveyor belt) restaurant section and one take-away where you can buy ready made sushi. The sushi is not bad if you compare it to what you can get in the supermarket but the price is the same, so for Zurich this is reasonably priced. For lovers of specialty rolls, their selection is quite limited but I am not a huge fan of them anyway. I had much better sushi at this price point before, just not in Switzerland and I am already content that I can eat some a-ok sushi without breaking the bank. Oh and extra bonus points for their hours: they are open daily from 11 am to 11 pm, also on Sundays.

Lol Their bento boxes are not overrated - they just really are that good. To be honest, i've never eaten anything else than their bento boxes... If something is good, you stick to it, right? You can do take away with them as far as i know. They prepare the food by not overdoing it, which i love. As a half japanese i appreciate that very much. Its hard to find japanese food that doesnt taste boring or overwhelmingly aromatic. Their interior is nice and comfortable, maybe a little cramped but they make it work. It won't bother you. Their staff is very polite and wants to help you and make your visit personal. I highly recommend bimi. I think they are doing it all super good, from food to services to ambiente. The price might be a little downside but its worth it.

Ah... just like the good 'ol days back in America! :) We looked at the already-cooked food options and settled on a beef stir-fry and chicken dish. Paired with steamed rice, it was the perfect late lunch to go. Awesome! The place looked a bit sparse but clean, and it was open on Sunday, woot! Then it was time to pay. CHF 33!! Say what?? This ain't no Panda Express. Welcome back to Switzerland, baby. :/ The food was pretty tasty, but very salty--almost too salty. Thank goodness we had gotten the regular steamed rice instead of the fried rice or pan-fried noodles I was eyeing earlier. The beef dish was surprisingly spicy. I normally don't find really spicy foods in Zürich, so that was interesting. The chicken was a bit sweet. Both dishes had very tender meats, yum. And the portions were quite generous. We only ate about half of each dish and had enough leftover for dinner later that night. :)
