Everything I ate on a day 1 ✈️ Lunch :) Enjoy real Danish food at Restaurant 1733 in Copenhagen, where classic recipes blend with contemporary tastes in a warm atmosphere.
Once you're at Copenhagen airport, just grab a taxi instead of calling an Uber. You'll be shocked to find all the taxis stuck outside, and Uber prices are almost twice as high.
Taking an Uber in Copenhagen can be pricey. A short ride will set you back about double what you'd pay in Switzerland, Sweden, or Paris. They charge for four passengers, even if you're just riding solo or with one other person.
Still, we think the Uber app is super handy for getting around Europe, and we're okay with spending a little extra for a comfy ride. Check out this restaurant 1733 in Copenhagen for a taste of traditional Danish cuisine!
📍Restaurant 1733 Copenhagen Nybrogade 14, 1203 København K, Denmark 📌 Save this for when you visit Copenhagen
A cozy lunch spot in the heart of Copenhagen, situated in Nybrogade where Kay Bojesen’s old toy workshop used to be, right by Slotsholmen’s Canal with views of Christiansborg and Thorvaldsens Museum. We decided to stay for lunch because it was so popular.
The menu features classic Danish dishes, with a focus on meat, but there are also fish options like the herring we tried. The decor is charming and nautical. The service is quick, and the prices are reasonable for Copenhagen.
We came here for lunch and were lucky to get a table, as it was very busy. My husband and I felt very comfortable. Even though we didn't make a reservation on the website, and many tables were reserved, we still got a table.but there's another local Danish spot just a short walk away. We love the local food, always fresh and homemade.
The vibe is great, and even though we opted for indoors, the weather outside was beautiful. The staff is super friendly and keeps the bustling place welcoming, serving delicious, top-notch dishes.
I would rate it an 8 out of 10. The cold beers are awesome, super tasty and enjoyable to drink. The food is fresh and top-notch. You should definitely check it out and experience the Danish cuisine and vibes!

We love the Danish stegt sild and roast beef with fried eggs, paired with cold beers in town. The food is delicious and served in generous portions! The herring is super tasty, and the fresh salads and toasted nuts are great sides. Plus, the beef is incredibly tender.

If you're in the mood for a movie and want some homemade snacks, this is the perfect recipe to satisfy your cravings. You'll find a tempting array of treats that are not only tasty but also made with fresh ingredients. This way, you can control how much sugar and other ingredients go into your snacks.
To get started, heat a pan and add your choice of avocado oil, groundnut oil, or corn oil. Then, toss in some popping corn over medium-high heat and cover it with a lid to enjoy the satisfying sound of kernels popping. Once the popping noises, turn off the heat but keep the lid on. In another pan, mix golden granulated sugar, water, and butter until they melt into a caramel sauce at your preferred colour. After that, turn off the heat and stir in some baking soda for extra texture. Quickly combine this caramel sauce with the freshly popped popcorn and serve right away or extra crunch, see below method.
Ingredients 80g popping corn 15g salted butter or 1/2 tablespoon oil - avocado, corn or groundnut oil
Caramel 80g granulated sugar 40g water 15g of salted butter a pinch of sea salt 1/8 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp vanilla extract or just skip it Here's how to create crispy caramel popcorn 1) Add 15g butter or 1/2 tbsp oil in a pan over medium heat. 2) Add 80g dried popping corn, use the heat safe spatula for stirring. covering it with a lid over medium high heat. 3) Once you hear kernels popping, turn off the heat (to prevent burning). 4) In another pan, melt 80g sugar along 40g water until it reaches your preferred caramel colour. 5) Add 15g salted butter and a pinch of salt. Allow it to simmer for 3 minutes without stirring. 7) Turn off the heat and stir in either 1/8 teaspoon baking soda or 1/4 tsp vanilla extract to enhance its flavour. 8) Swiftly coat all popcorn with this caramel while tossing until it cools down slightly and hardens. 9) For prolonged crunchiness, spread coated popcorn onto a baking sheet at around 100-120°C (212-248°F), tossing every 10-15 minutes during its total bake time lasting approximately between 20-30 minutes. Remember to stir occasionally! Let it cool completely before serving. or you can serve immediately without oven :)
If you're a fan of coffee and pastries, this place is a must!!! As a coffee lover, I was really attracted to Buka Bakery, where a long queue of eager customers was waiting. We decided to relax with coffee and delicious pastries.
I enjoyed a cream and raspberry puff pastry that was the best I've ever tasted! It was perfectly made, a beautiful flavour, shape and honeycomb structure with a crispy outside and a soft, airy inside. 10/10 - I’m a huge fan and can’t wait to come back next time I’m in Copenhagen! :)
We had a delicious breakfast buffet at our hotel, Manon Les Suite, but then we thought it would be fun to explore Copenhagen City Hall and chill at a bakery & coffee shop.
The whole experience was fantastic, with high-quality coffee and pastries in a spacious setting. Buka Bakery has several spots in Copenhagen, including one on Strøget, near the bustling City Hall, and another ones, just a three-minute walk away, famous for its pastries and bread, making it a popular choice for coffees.
Handsome barista creates stunning coffee art and offers top-notch customer service :) Being both professionally trained and good-looking is just a bonus. Buka Bakery in Copenhagen is famous for its delicious cream-filled croissants. I had the pleasure of theirs freshly baked pistachio croissants, which were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with a good balance of pistachio cream sweetness. Since I love both pistachios and nuts. They go perfectly with the coffee too!!!
I forced my husband to eat the croissant even though he said he was full, and to my surprise, he really enjoyed it. The green tea is really nice and smooth too.
The prices are pretty standard for European cities, totaling 300DKK / £34 for 2 pastries and 4 hot drinks. Given the amazing quality of the pastries and coffees, it felt like a good value, as everything was truly outstanding.
So looking forward to more of these delicious treats when we’re back in Copenhagen 😋 We enjoyed our stay at Manon Les Suites, just a short 13-minute short walk to Copenhagen City Hall, with the lovely Buka's bakery close by. I'll share more about Copenhagen in my next video, so keep an eye out for that.
📍 Buka Bakery has two locations within a short three-minute walk. 1) Frederiksberggade 21, 1459 København, Denmark 2) Nytorv 3, 1450 København, Denmark.
Like - Real Oyster Sauce Recipe? Begin by opening the fresh oysters, adding a pinch of sea salt, and rinsing them under cold running water. Place the oysters in a pan and sauté until they become fragrant. Then, add water, a pinch of salt, and sugar, cooking over medium-high heat. Once cooked, drain the oysters and set them aside to dry for future use. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of water with half a tablespoon of corn-starch, then mix this into the oyster liquid. For added colour, you may incorporate 1/2 tablespoon of dark soy sauce, although this step can be omitted if the mixture already has a caramel hue. Once everything is prepared, you're all set!
Ingredients:
- 10 fresh oysters
- A pinch of sea salt
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
- 1/2 tablespoon dark soy sauce or just skip it
Cook until the mixture thickens! Now your time to thumbs up this video, because now, you have created 100% authentic oyster sauce from scratch :) Remove the oysters and air fry them at 100-120°C for 20-25 minutes. The dried oysters can be used in various dishes or soups.
We just got back from Copenhagen, and it’s only been 8 days since we arrived home. I'm super excited to dive into editing our full experience at Manon les Suites, a 5-star hotel in Denmark. I can't wait to share it with everyone soon! Just to be clear, this is my honest review and not a sponsored video.
Our petite suite, room 601, has a terrace with 360-degree stunning views. It’s a perfect spot to sit back with a cup of Matcha green tea and soak in the breath-taking scenery. We had a one-night stay that came with the "Manon Full Experience" package, and it was a delightful experience for £500.
We had an incredible night and it was truly fantastic! The hotel room met our expectations with a balcony that offered breath-taking views. The indoor pool was stunning and created a relaxing vibe. The restaurant served breakfast and dinner made with fresh ingredients with mouth-watering dishes, and the staff was super friendly and attentive.
Positives: 1) The pool area is absolutely gorgeous and super chill. It would be even more amazing if they played bird sounds like you’d hear in a forest instead of music to really boost that natural vibe!
2) The rooftop restaurant, Chapung, really enhances the whole experience. The chef's choice 3-course dinner, paired with a glass of bubbles, features fresh, top-notch ingredients. I typically don't consume raw foods, but I decided to try raw oysters. They were surprisingly good, ideal pairing with the sauces, and the side dishes are light and refreshing without being overly salty or greasy. Pan fried pork neck is incredibly tender, juicy, and absolutely delicious. Crème Brulé, topped with a rich blueberry sauce and fresh berries. The topping strikes a wonderful balance between sweet and tangy, enhanced by the fresh, crisp berries, crunchy candy, and smooth pudding. It's not only incredibly tasty but also looks fantastic, making it an ideal dessert choice. We had a delightful dinner! The vanilla paired with tropical mango, whipped cream, and crunchy biscuit bits was incredibly refreshing. It feels like you’re dining at a Michelin-star restaurant with stunning views from the windows.
3) The Guldsmeden Signature Breakfast has a fantastic range of options. I love that they use fresh ingredients; you can really taste the quality and organic goodness.
We walked one round off for everything and ended up for mushrooms, green veggies, bacon, sausages, fried eggs, fruits, and pastries. We enjoyed all the delicious food on our tables and, believe it or not, we finished it all off, haha!
You’ll come across some big glass bottles filled with mango, orange, and tropical juices, and you’re welcome to grab as many drinks as you like. All the juices are organic and taste way better than the Tropicana brand in the UK. We absolutely adore the vibe of the breakfast buffet, and all the food is super fresh and delicious! It's such a delightful experience.
When you stay at Manon Les Suites, make sure to try their signature breakfast buffet. It's 100% worth it!!!
The guy who first served us was friendly, and another barista who assisted us with filming made us happy :) The staff is well-trained and professional.
4) The petite suite, room 601, boasts a terrace with breath-taking 360-degree views. It’s the perfect place to relax with a cup of tea and take in the amazing scenery.
5) The location is excellent, as it is only a short walk of a few minutes to the city centre. Numerous restaurants and cafes, including the renowned Baku bakery, are nearby, along with a vibrant food market and an impressive museum. Here are some downsides we encountered [Negatives]: 1) When we arrived, we couldn't check in early, so our luggage was kept in a security room until we returned at the 3 PM check-in time. We expected our bags to be in our room, but the receptionist couldn't find them and had us go with her to get them. The staff's attitude wasn't as friendly as we expected from a five-star hotel, possibly because it was a busy Sunday with many guests checking out. In comparison, our previous four-star hotel welcomed us with drinks and was more budget-friendly.
2) The bed was uncomfortable, with noticeable dips in the middle, making it feel like we were sleeping in a nest. The bedding and blanket weren't soft, and the pillows didn't help us get a good night's sleep.
3) The bathroom felt outdated and uncomfortable, with a lid that was hard to close. Plus, the drawers kept falling out, which was quite alarming.
4) It was odd that there was only one pack of green tea bags for two guests. We also didn't get any complimentary drinks at the pool bar, despite having the full Manon experience package. The drinks offered at the pool bar were pretty basic and overpriced.
5) The soundproofing in the hotel was lacking. We could hear everything from the ceiling, or neighbouring rooms, including laughter, conversations, and outside noise.
There’s definitely a room for improvement, especially with the reception staff. The customer service on Sunday was lacking, but the front desk attendant on Monday, with her lovely smile and curly black hair, was incredibly friendly and helpful compared to the Sunday receptionists.
Overall, the experience was positive :) I'll surely return someday when I'm in the mood.
Today’s expenses for day 3, is the biggest expense from the three-night, four-day trip CHF 736 - 680 British pounds and 4000 Malaysia ringgit.
From day1 £348 +day2 £470 + day3 £680 + day4 £100 + flights £604.60 = ''£2202.60'' RM13,000. KLM flights to Zurich, Switzerland - Checked baggage/ hand luggage's. GBP 604.60 for two of us.
📍 Zum Kropf (Grand Swiss/Bavarian restaurant in 15th-century house). Address: In Gassen 16, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland
On the day 3, we decided to skip breakfast and go straight for brunch since we wanted to catch up on some sleep and not wake up too early. If you're in Zurich, this place is a must-visit! It’s a true gem offering authentic Swiss cuisine and has become my favourite spot.
The restaurant embodies traditional Swiss charm, from its ambiance and décor to its focus on local dishes. The service is top-notch and very professional. It's conveniently located near Bahnhofstrasse and features a beautifully painted ceiling that adds to its historic charm. The atmosphere is simply lovely.
The dark Amber ZHK 4 dl for CHF 7.20 was just okay, but the homemade beer, Quollfrisch, priced at CHF 8.90, was fantastic! I really enjoyed it; it has a sweet barley flavour with a rich wheat aroma and a hint of sweetness.
You have to try the Kalbsbratwurst rosti for CHF 25.50 and the Wiener schnitzel with fries for CHF 40.00. The traditional Wiener schnitzel, made from veal, was tender and packed with flavor, and the sausages were delicious too. We relished every moment there. If you want to experience Swiss cuisine, this is definitely the place to go.
I gave Zum Kropf a solid 9 out of 10, which is pretty impressive for a dining experience, and I rated Zeughauskeller a perfect 10 out of 10. Both places are fantastic and definitely worth checking out when you're in Zurich.
If you're looking to enjoy Swiss cuisine, these spots are top-notch. The vibe is exactly what you'd hope for in a classic Swiss restaurant.
The caramel kopfli for CHF 8.50 was decent; the caramel pudding wasn’t as smooth as I’d wanted for, but it still tasted good. In total CHF 90,10 (£82.00). In summary, if you’re looking to try Swiss food, this restaurant is an excellent choice. The atmosphere is exactly what you’d expect from a traditional Swiss eatery.
After brunch, we’ll be heading out of town to unwind at our B2 luxurious hotel. This is our signature pose from 19 years ago. We promised we’d strike this same pose when we got older.
From Ruby Mimi to the B2 hotel takes around 10 minutes ride, and we only paid CHF 11.47 (£10.40) for the Uber. 📍 B2 Hotel Zürich, Brandschenkestrasse 152, 8002 Zürich, Switzerland. When we got to B2, the reception was super friendly. They helped us with our luggage and offered us a welcome drink, which was sparkling wine. They then took us to our room, showed us around, and let us know that all the drinks in the fridge are complimentary for hotel guests.
We stayed at all four-star hotels, the last day is the priciest, costing CHF 520 and £485. This rate includes access to a hot spa with stunning city views and a bottle of sparkling wine. It's a great deal for the price. It's one of the most expensive spots we've stayed at on this trip. The price covers breakfast, a 3 PM check-in, and a 1 PM late check-out, plus you get access to the spa and a bottle of sparkling wine. I truly think it’s a great deal for a relaxing getaway.
Dinner here is super chill! We really enjoy sipping on jasmine green tea in the B2 library, 3 cups jasmine, 5 for each cup. I ordered the free-range corn-fed chicken dishes for 38, and it's fantastic, while my husband ordered different dishes, flank steak 40, and the dessert 13 Swiss franc.
The only downside is that the seating isn't ideal; the best spots for videos and photos are in the middle near the staircase. The overall vibe of the service, food, and drinks is really warm and inviting. I typically leave a £5 tips for the waiter to express my gratitude for excellent service, enjoyable dining experiences, and fantastic atmosphere. Dinner at B2 Library - CHF 106 (£97+ £5 = £103)
After our early dinner, we relax at the hotel and get set for the spa, both indoors and outdoors. You can't bring your iPhone or camera to the pool site, especially during busy times and many peoples are there.
A great tip is to head to the heated pool right when it opens in the morning, go before breakfast. You can be the first one there and bring a GoPro for a quick shot on the pool site. After that, you can enjoy your breakfast. When the views are stunning and the pool is crowded in the afternoon, we chose not to film and instead just soaked in the beautiful scenery and relaxed in the spa. We didn't take any videos because it felt a bit awkward with so many peoples around.
Day 4 - 21 February 2025 (Friday) Breakfast at B2 Library - 6.30am-11am. 1pm late check out!
I had breakfast in the most beautiful library in Zürich! I savoured over 3 cups of jasmine green tea; it's warm, aromatic, and incredibly smooth to sip. It reminds me of what I enjoy at home—such a delightful experience!
At B2, all the breads for breakfast come straight from Babu's bakery, and they're freshly made everyday. You can request either a fried egg or scrambled eggs. After breakfast, we treated ourselves to another cup of jasmine tea and spent some time reading in the library to unwind. Since it's our final day and our flight isn't until 6 PM, we chose to relax and hang out at the library instead of heading out.
I drink champagne when I'm happy :) cheers to all of you. Don't stay in a bad situation, no matter what's happening, choose to be happy. It’s all about making that choice. When you’re happy, you spread joy to those around you. Happiness doesn’t come from your possessions, your identity, your location, or your activities; it’s all about your mindset.
Zurich Airport Uber 2:30pm - early to airport and check in luggage. From B2 Hotel to Zurich Airport takes around 25 minutes, and we only paid CHF 33.66 (£30) for the Uber. We arrived at the airport more than 3 hours early to explore everything in Switzerland's airport. The airport is amazing—there are great Swiss restaurants everywhere, and I enjoyed Swiss beers, very much.
Eat in Air Restaurant Zurich Airport - AIR restaurant £18.07 The sausages are fantastic! The fried are super fresh, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and not greasy at all. I’m amazed that the food at the Switzerland airport can be this delicious!
Since our flights are still early, we decided to check out airport restaurant nearby. The views from the window are breathtaking—the clear blue sky is gorgeous, and we can see planes taking off for other destinations.
Drink Swiss beer and coke cola in the airport - Sportbar Terasse Bar £15. So, we’re just going to kick back with a drink and wait for our flights to be called.
Airport Beer £6 - Arrived Amsterdam and drink German wheat beer. It's called Paulaner while waiting the flight.while waiting the flight.
When we got to our local airport, it was almost 10 PM. It’s usually pretty windy and chilly there. We have the local taxi app, so once we grab our luggages, we’ll use it to order a ride. Sometimes, there are taxis waiting at the main terminal, so we’ll check that out too.
Making these travel videos has been pretty time-consuming with all the editing, writing, and voiceover I do myself. I'm planning to switch up my travel video style on my next trip to make it simpler and quicker. I'm curious to see how it turns out!
Link Taxi £30 - Home sweet home! I really missed it after that quick getaway. The taxi drivers were super friendly and helpful too. Our Switzerland travel series has wrapped up with episode 3.
Helpful Tips - Our 4 day 3 nights Zurich trip (From day1 £348 +day2 £470 + day3 £680 + day4 £100 + flights £604.60 = ''£2202.60'' RM13,000) for 2 of us. The expenses actually are very much lower than our expectation, it is normally each trip we spent at least more than £3500. I think it is because we shorten our trip in 4 days instead of one week, and the hotels are not that expensive, we also use less uber in Zurich, like a local yummy food tour, all the famous restaurant and landscape sign seeing are just nearby to our hotels. 3 months ago we have been in Paris, the Uber costs in only 7 days, it costs nearly £500. From this trip experienced. The local foods, hotels and groceries we think they are very much similar to Paris, and all the 4 stars hotels cost in the great location city of Zurich are not that expensive as we imagine.
From this trip, we found that local food, hotels, and groceries in Zurich are quite similar to what we experienced in Paris. The 4-star hotels in prime locations in Zurich turned out to be more reasonably priced than we expected. I’m definitely planning to explore Switzerland again!
It’s just a quick 3-minute walk from Citizen M to Haus Hiltl is the oldest vegetarian restaurant in the world according to Guinness World Records.
📍 Haus Hiltl - Founded in 1898 by Ambrosius Hiltl, Haus Hiltl is the oldest vegetarian restaurant in the world according to Guinness World Records
In the morning, they had a vegetarian breakfast buffet, but honestly, it didn’t really match our breakfast vibe, so we decided to chill out at a nearby café for coffee and pastries instead.
We stroll by this bakery with the most incredible smell, and it's only a minute walk from our hotel. The bread and cake appear to be freshly baked, and the aroma of the coffee is delightful.
📍 Moser's Backparadies AG Talacker 50, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland
The server were super friendly, helping us with a quick video and flashing big smiles.
Indulge in the delightful sweetness and creamy buttery notes of the Vanille Kreuz pastry. This elegant delicacy complements a cappuccino beautifully.
"Schoko-Kokos-Schnitten" is translated into English as "chocolate coconut slice." This dessert resembles a moist chocolate cake infused with shredded coconut. After enjoying it, I can envision preparing a homemade version and creating a new recipe right away.
We only spent 18.70 Swiss francs, 17 British pounds, and 95 Malaysia ringgit for breakfast at the café in Zurich. It's definitely the most affordable option compared to dining at a restaurant for lunch or dinner.
After I walked out of the café, I totally didn’t realize I had left my favourite Louis Vuitton bag with my iPhone inside, packed with a bunch of travel videos. I was really lucky that it didn’t cause me any issues because she is the one of the friendly staff member who took us video and quickly stepped in. I feel grateful to have met such honest and kind people at Moser's café. Her actions were genuinely impressive! :)
I enjoy switching hotels when I travel to a new country, as it allows me to experience the unique atmosphere of each place and keeps my journey exciting :)
Uber: CHF 9. 📍 Ruby Mimi Hotel & Bar, Beatenpl. 4, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland (Check-in at 3 PM, Check-out at 11 AM).
It's only an 11-minute walk from Citizen M to Ruby Mimi, but with our luggages, it's not the easiest trek. So, we opt for an Uber, which only costs us CHF 9 for a quick 6-minute ride to the hotel.
We’re looking for a room that really impresses us, complete with a balcony, so we picked a wow room. It’s priced at CHF282 (£250) (RM1420) for one night, but keep in mind that prices can change depending on the date and season, as shown on the website.
It's a nice 4-star hotel in Zurich city, good location, but the room is it really a wow room. What do you guys think?
We can't book a spot on the website since it's already fully booked. So, we're heading over to see if we can get in straight by any chance—it's only a minute's walk from Ruby Mimi. This place is a Michelin-starred Japanese noodle bar, and the service is top-notch. Once we sit down, they bring us hot, fragrant towels, which really makes us feel refreshed.
The noodles are amazing—super chewy, smooth, and taste like freshly made. The soup is really comforting. The flavour is spot on; not overly salty. It reminds me of happiness home of taste, and I absolutely loved it!
When you're in Switzerland, you definitely to try the cheese. we went for a Swiss cheese bowl of noodles, it was a super rich and creamy.
For those who appreciate a robust flavour in their cheese bowl, this dish is well-suited to your palate. The addition of bacon provides a delightful enhancement, complementing the noodles exceptionally well. After enjoying the bowl, consider sipping sencha green tea followed by matcha mochi; this combination serves as the perfect way to achieve a harmonious balance.
The flavour of Japanese green tea its authentic grassy fresh teas, just like I have at home. We drink tea every day, and there’s nothing quite like relaxing with a cup in hand.
The Japanese mochi has a delightful chewy texture, wrapping around matcha ice cream that strikes a great balance. The matcha flavor is just right, and I really like that it’s a firm ice cream rather than the softer varieties.
1 pot for 2 - sencha tea - 13 1 pc flavour of choice - 5 Thin mochi layer with matcha ice cream filling.
Tsuru tsuru noodlebar spot in Zurich is amazing; it really captures the authentic flavour of Japan. I've been a fan of Japanese snacks and foods and teas, since I was a kid. I have a deep appreciation for Japanese cuisine, especially the authentic dishes found around the world, not just in Japan.
We relied on our UK debit card for all our Swiss Franc transactions in Switzerland, which is a completely cashless city of Zurich. It made traveling around Europe so much easier for us! The total for our lunch comes to 69 Swiss Francs. (£62) (RM350). It is definitely worthwhile!
The team at Tsuru Tsuru Noodlebar is highly skilled and maintains professionalism, even during peak hours. When I visit Zurich again, I’m definitely hitting this spot up. The noodles are amazing, the Japanese teas are excellent, plus, the service, atmosphere is great.
📍 Coop Supermarkt Zürich Bahnhofbrücke
We really enjoy stopping by the nearby grocery store to grab some fresh fruits, juice, and local beer to chill at our hotel. The tap water there is super fresh and totally safe to drink, especially in Switzerland. Staying hydrated is super important!
Easter is just around the corner, which means you'll be seeing plenty of Lindt GOLD BUNNY chocolates!
I got this knife just for slicing mangoes, and it does the job perfectly. It's super sharp and works really well, making it a fantastic deal for the price.
This bunch of fresh blooms is intended for a flower basket. ItalyPaul loves to buy these locally in the UK. They look stunning!
Following the purchase of groceries totalling - 29 Swiss francs, we made a brief three-minute walk back to the hotel. We took a moment to relax, washed the fruits we intended to enjoy as snacks, and then prepared to go out for an early dinner to avoid wait in line, especially during peak times.
This restaurant has gained immense popularity on TripAdvisor. Everyone are excited to try the Cheese Fondue in Switzerland.
Walking into that spot, where the incredible smell of cheese hits you, felt like a dream for a cheese lover like me.
The beer was just as fantastic, with a taste that really satisfied. I'm a huge fan of Swiss beer, it has this wonderful wheat aroma and a hint of sweetness at the end, kind of like the homemade rice wine I make at home.
It looks like the fondue was cooked at high a temperature and ended up too thick. I wanted to suggest to the staff that they add a bit more wine or lemon juice to balance it out, but nobody seemed to see me.
They were busy checking on other tables, and I never got asked how my meal was. I can sense that the waiters is aware of, I asked her to take it away, and they saw it was loaded with bread and cheese fondue, but they didn’t say anything].
Cheese fondue waadlander - CHF 33.50, I have to say, it was way too salty. the bread with cheese fondue, but I could only manage to eat only 2 pieces. My husband tried 1 piece in one bite and immediately stopped because it was just too salty!!!
Lachs mit Weissweinsauce, Salzkartoffel in Spinat (Salmon with white wine sauce, boiled potatoes, and spinach) - 36.50
The first bite was fine, but by the second bite, I could taste that the fish was cooked at the wrong temperature, giving it a greasy flavour. I don't have much else to say about it. I gave the dishes back to my husband, and he said they were fine to eat. It wasn't overly salty, and the salmon at least tasted fresh.
This restaurant experienced in Zurich was a total let-down, but hey, it might not be the same for everyone! It costs us in total 86 Swiss Franc (£75) (RM432).
After dinner, I figured a quick 9-minute stroll from Swiss Chuchi Restaurant to tsuru tsuru noodlebar would be a great idea for a tea break and to grab a bite since I didn’t eat much at Swiss Chuchi.
When we arrived at the noodle bar, the staff informed us that it was completely booked and full with customers, so we’d have to wait at least 1 hour for a seat. we decided to head back to the hotel, just 1-minute walk. Keep safely and enjoyably play with sparklers on a balcony.
Upon my arrival at Tsuru Tsuru Noodlebar, the charming staff complimented my outfit, saying it suited me beautifully. Together, we want to send a warm hello to all of you.
In a Japanese restaurant, you'll likely be presented with an "oshibori" (a wet towel, either hot or cold depending on the season) to clean your hands before your meal, a gesture of hospitality and hygiene.
I definitely enjoy taking a tea break and having a bowl of soup noodles with prawn tempura. It makes me feel cosy and really happy with my dinner. 100% recommended and a perfect score of 10 out of 10.
Ebi tempura 29 and a pot of sencha green tea for two persons 13 in total 42. On day 2, our total expenses came to CHF 533.70 (£470) (RM2700). This includes CHF 280 for the hotel, CHF 18.70 for breakfast, CHF 9 for an Uber ride, CHF 69 for lunch, CHF 29 for some fresh fruits and juice, CHF 86 for dinner, and CHF 42 for my late-night dinner.
I hope you like my travel video! If you could give me a thumbs up or drop a comment, that would be awesome! I truly value your support, and thanks for watching! See you in Episode 3. Good bye!
