What travelers say:
head-img
A restaurant that is very popular among Zurich locals, located on the square of the Frauenkirche (Münsterhof), has a history of more than 700 years. This was once the home of the private doctor of the Frauenkirche convent. Later, he sold the building to the Linen Weavers Guild, one of the seven oldest guilds in Zurich. Today, some weaving scenes can still be seen on the stained glass windows of the restaurant. The owner of the restaurant, Sepp Wimmer, took me to visit each floor. The dense badges on the wall were the symbols of the guild members. The left side was the time when the company was founded, and the back was the time when he joined the guild. The fountain on the square is also his magic for holding events: "I can make the fountain spray out fine wine and fill the entire pool." I still ordered my favorite Zurich veal (Zürcher Geschnetzeltes). Unlike many other restaurants that are used to slicing or shredding beef, the beef in this restaurant is cut into large pieces, the meat is more tender, and the potato cakes are thicker. In addition, pan-fried duck liver with cherry port wine sauce is also a specialty here.
