A perfect site for a group gathering: we had invited several friends whom we had not seen for a…read morelong time, made a reservation for a little enclosed space and enjoyed a wonderful evening with lots of heartwarming memories in a beautiful scenery with view onto the lake. And best of all, we did not have to organize anything more, everyone could get what they wanted for themselves. PREVIOUS REVIEW: A wonderful (and seemingly lucrative aka expensive) concept: situated on a show-farm with marketplace character, patrons choose various items from different stations, with a tendency to load and spend too much ... But every item was worth it. And the standard setting is to sit down at the outdoor block tables and benches and enjoy a meal in supremely relaxed atmosphere - if there weren't any wasps.

The pumpkin soup was always sought after a long hot summer days. Admission was always free and the goat petting zoo was and is still a delight. Free admission gave way to paying elevated prices for the food however this year, admission charge of 15CHF per person was added, removing the charm and rethinking purchasing items of the season at already elevated prices. The once family atmosphere has now turned into an entertainment park with the themed pumpkin sculptures loosing its magical appeal. Not every Swiss family earns a 5 digit monthly salary. A once magical place to enjoy the autumn season has now transformed into another machine of the times.

The fireworks were fab loved the colors in the sky- and for a whole 1/2 hour, I couldn't believe my eyes!

I'm really happy, because my mom was here when Zueri Faescht was going on, and I was here, so we…read moreboth got to experience the crazy-ness. It's awesome. Go early (like 4 or 5 ish in the afternoon) so you get your fill of it before all hell breaks loose. It's a lot like a state fair (yknow, like back in the states) except way bigger, and instead of it being in a closed off field, they bring it to the middle of the city, roller coasters and all. So you can still enjoy the beautiful buildings, river, and all the roads are shut down. One tramstop was even transformed into a bar, that was cool looking. They shot off fireworks to beautiful music for 30 MINUTES! There is SO MUCH FOOD. I loved it. You can try everything. It's like Swiss Fair Food! And it's awesome. Sure it ads up, but it's not bad, maybe 7-15CHF per plate. The only downside is the cluster fudge of people. That's why you might wanna peace out around 10 or 11. My mom left before the fireworks, and that was probably a really good decision. There was one point when boyfriend and I almost lost it because we were smashed against people. It gets a little crowded. A teenage boy took advantage of the mess and held my hand for maybe 2 seconds. See, people get a little crazy. The good thing that came out of it was boyfriend and I eventually got smashed against the barbeque stand, so we actually got to skip the line and eat bbq. That was fun. It's an experience. If you have an open mind and avoid the scary mass of people, it's pretty awesome. AND IT'S ONLY EVERY 3 YEARS!

After the madness of Streetparade Zürich last weekend, it was interesting to check out Stadtfest…read moreBaden for the first time. Not quite sure what to expect, but not quite what I expected. For starters, there were TONS of people. Mostly young to middle-aged adults, some older folks, and a few kids... all filling up the streets and makeshift booths throughout the old town. There was a plethora of usual suspects for sale -- cotton candy and assorted sweets, sausages, Bretzels, lots of alcohol, Dönner kebaps, trinkets, and a surprisingly large number of crepe stands. The All-American hot dogs were a hit at CHF 7 each. I was tempted to try one but then decided not to get ripped off for something that only costs $0.99 back home. I was a bit annoyed with one temp bar that put a Japanese flag next to a Taiwanese bubble tea drink on the menu, plastered Japanese anime all over the walls, and then hung Chinese lanterns from the ceiling. I guess that's what the Swiss consider Asian exotica. :P All-in-all, the event was ok to check out, since it only occurs once in 5 years. But there isn't so much to do except stand around and drink, eat crappy street food, and try to talk to others over the din of music being piped over the speakers. After about 2 hours of watching drunken bozos staggering around, I had enough and was ready to go home.

My husband and I stopped by this past Monday to check out Zurich's indoor Christmas market. Due to covid, staff will request to see your Swiss pass showing that you're fully vaccinated and will ask you for a form of ID like your passport. Be mindful that you must bring them before heading to this Christmas market because I have seen people get turned away not having the proper documentation. Once we walked in, the very first thing we saw was the impressive 32-ft-tall Christmas tree. It was decorated with thousands of sparkling Swarovski crystals. The stalls, all decked out in Christmas decorations, enticed us with their festive temptations. There were several local vendors including food dipped in fondue, local handmade chocolate, and artisan bakeries. The only disappointment was that there were some but not many vendors selling any holiday crafts, ornaments, toys, etc. This Christmas market seemed to be more focused on food and drinks. Nonetheless, it was still fun roaming each row to see what every vendor had to offer. It was also a nice way to stay indoors for a bit when it began to snow outside.
