In July, we took a chance on the weather and booked a table by the lake of Zurich, but under cover at Quai 61. This proved to be the perfect compromise - a waterside view without the risk of rain. Twelve people came along to enjoy the ambiance and the midday menu choices.

Service at lunchtime is quick, and the restaurant caters to business workers wishing for a chic place to eat, close to the financial centre, where you can also show off to a client or companion. For members of ZIWA's Dining Around the World group, our aim is a congenial location with great value food and attentive service. This was easily achieved on this rather overcast summer's day.

There was a choice of set menus at a reasonable price - fish or beef with delicious accompaniments, all served promptly. A glass of wine went down nicely alongside the main event. As usual the conversation predominated over the eating, though.



Quai 61 has a great a la carte selection, as well as a cocktail bar and a sundeck for really warm days. You do need to reserve though, as the place is always busy.

They also serve Sunday brunch and cater for special events. So if you're looking for somewhere special within walking distance of tram, bus and boat stops, with a wonderful lake view, give Quai 61 a call.

Zum wohl mitenand!
