If you're looking for a something other than traditional Swiss food, or if you're looking for something different in general... try Restaurant Turm! Their menu offers a selection of rather exotic meats including wild boar, ostrich, kangaroo, and even crocodile!
Oddly, I wasn't feeling too adventurous that night... but I still wanted to try a few menu items. I decided on 2 appetizers instead of an entree, and both appetizers were a larger portion than I expected (definitely not complaining!) The Ensalada de Tomate y Mozzarella was very fresh & flavorful. My other appetizer was the Jamon Iberico which was sliced paper thin and melted in my mouth. However, the menu said it is served with melon, but I didn't get any...
He had the Beef Tenderloin with potatoes and vegetables. It was cooked perfectly medium rare, and I couldn't resist stealing a few bites!
Entrees here can be quite pricey going up to ~50 CHF for some of the more unusual meats, but it's reasonable considering the novelty and generous portion sizes.
The atmosphere is exotic as well since it's decorated with lush jungle plants. Centerpieces of grapefruits, oranges, and ginger root add to the tropical feeling. The restaurant is dimly-lit, and the plants help create secluded areas within the dining room which makes this a great place for a date! read more
