Don Leone
€30
(
31
Bäckerstrasse, tel: 044 241 0101

Chatty, cramped and bustling, this place has genuine Italian
atmosphere. The food is good and they also have
pizze

,
their version of pizza without the tomato topping.
Café Boy
Exclusive
(
2
Kochstrasse, tel: 044 240 4024
)
At the Boy, dishes like smoked salmon tartar with maize
blinis or venison in a hazelnut crust really got our mouths
watering. The excellent selection of wines and cheeses all
go to prove: the boy is fully grown.
Barrique

17
Marktgasse, tel: 044 252 5941
)
Panelled walls
treated with sections of wooden wine crates and the lamps
made of bulbous wine bottles get the message across: this
is a wine tavern. The atmosphere is calm so it's perfect for
a chatty evening with a significant other.
