This little takeout place is run by the nicest mother and son duo. On our first night in Basel we…read morelearned how early many places shut down. We spotted Sapori Del Sud and made it a point to come back the next day when they were open. That was a great decision. A majority of the restaurants on this particular street were insanely expensive. We just wanted a quick lunch before we got back to exploring. We were able to get a nice lasagna for a reasonable price. We liked it so much that we ended up walking back to get gelato for dessert later. The son kept apologizing to me because he didn't speak English but there was no need to apologize for that! I was able to use Google Translate to tell him in Italian that we enjoyed their food very much. It was great seeing their faces light up when they heard that. I'm really glad I got to meet these two and enjoy their food on this journey.

It's traditional doner (I had chicken) and it's huge, made fresh and hot and right in front of you.

Total local eats place. Go.

My "French Connection" was a burger with Brie cheese. You order and pickup at the counter. They come ala carte or "menu" which adds fries or salad plus a drink. BTW, salad is decent.

The burger is nicely cooked, the bun is big and soft, and the toppings are all very balancing of one another. Having lived in Italy for the last 3 months, I have been dying for a good quality burger, and this was the perfect place to satisfy that craving.

A small food stand set up in the daily market. They serve up their namesake - Piadina - which is…read morethin Italian flatbread with fresh cheese, meat and veg. The menu items read off like a cross between pizzas and subs, like the Caprese (which I got) with mozzarella, fresh tomatoes, and basil to the Prosciutto crudo, which is ham, obviously. Everything is fresh, well-portioned and delicious. However being Switzerland, it's also punishingly expensive. You'd be forgiven for thinking that street food at a market would be somewhat cheap, but the Piadinas range from 8 - 16 francs, which almost directly translates to $8 - 16 USD. Still, it's one of the cheapest lunches you can get in Basel.

It reminds me of the French chain Brioche Dorée, but only better. The four of us came here before getting on our train and came away happy we did. The prices are very reasonable, too.

Lots of other options including ceviche shrimp, beef tartare (no, even in Switzerland I won't eat it from a deli counter), tuna, sliced chicken, egg salad. And the desserts! Oh, my! I'm not on keto when I'm on vacation but these were still looking too rich for me. But I only barely managed to resist the fruit tart cakes. Coffees and sodas, yes. Beers and wine are across the way. Not a lot of room here for eating and sitting, so we ended up taking it to go and enjoyed it on the train to Zürich. [Review 16454 overall - 7 in Switzerland - 1962 of 2021.]
