The restaurant did scramble to get us in that night. It was a little tight inside, but well worth it. The head of our party ordered 2 dozen oysters. He claimed they were the best and I would have to agree. For my main, I got the Milanaise Revisited in Elephant Ear. Don't worry it's not really an elephant, but flattened veal breaded and fried to perfection. It was wonderful especially with some crispy fries. I did get to enjoy the Candied Irish Lamb Shank. It comes in a large pot and I swear it feeds at least 2 people. The savory thyme reduction was decadent and the potato with porcini mushrooms made this a heavy, but wonderful dish. I wish I had the stomach to eat it all.

The tour manager recommended we travel into the old town center. I found this restaurant through Yelp and their Rosti varieties plus the food quality are exactly what I needed for a lunch stop. The Rosti did not disappoint. Full disclaimer: Rosti can be a bit heavy with the cooking process that can include butter along with some bacon. Yes, the Rosti had the expected greasy texture, but just enough to make it savory without overpowering the various ingredients. I would recommend this restaurant if you are interested in trying the traditional Rosti dish in several varieties.

I've walked by this structure every day on my way to and from work for two months without ever…read morestopping to wonder if it had a function. It's one of those iconic buildings that just become part of the scenery of a city. Well, it turns out that it's a restaurant/lounge, and one of the "in" places to go for drinks after work. The decor reminded me of Brooklyn or the Meat Packing District in New York, with a lot of exposed cement and pipes across the ceiling. The building must have been a loading dock or something, and they've basically hollowed out the place, set up tables and a bar, and jacked up the value of the old building. The long hall is divided between a dining area and drinking area. An island bar runs across the center of the narrow hall in the drinking portion of the building, leaving very little room on each side. I tend to spend most of my time either pressed against the window or dodging passers-by trying to make it to the other end of the bar. It's crowded, I've heard the food is mediocre on its best days, it's pricey, the music gets really loud as the night progresses, and they have maybe two red wines on the menu. But there's something about walking across a bridge to get to a bar that sits in the center of a European river that I find appealing. There are also old ferris wheel cars that have been converted into tables in the terrace area. A good go-to place when you're gathering people from both sides of the river, as this is dead center!

I would not recommend this place unless you don't care to wait or you don't mind being ignored as someone visiting from the States. Maybe it's me and may be customary, but travelling Eroupe in numerous countries never has never been ignored like they did here by a service industry person.
