I miss real German or Swiss food. As mentioned before, they are all transitional cuisines across whichever border strides the other side of the Alps Mountain or river. For example part of South-Eastern France, surprisingly cooks up food more resembling Italian style food with pastas, olive oil or on the South-West border, one finds Basque-Spanish style Tapas or Pintxo cuisines as well. And don't forget that the Romans once ruled a large part of Europe and their influence can definitely be felt in many cities... to the point one often feels like it's more of the same everywhere across borders, just written in a totally different language.
Here I was attracted to eat here due to their 【Zürcher Geschnetzeltes】. A Veal or Beef dish cooked with Mushrooms and Cream, served on the side with a fried Potato Roesti. The recipe sounds like a crowd pleaser easily.

Zürcher Geschnetzeltes
The meat portion was huge actually, I even found some Morel mushrooms hidden inside and a positive surprise! But the Potato Rostie was quite too thin and more like Hash brown, albeit too soft and not dry-crispy enough. I will happily eat it but it's not the most authentic Swiss dish especially the Rostie part of equation. For $192 it's good by Portion, rather than by Price. But as a local Hong Konger, one has to appreciate a shop for even doing this in town !! At least it makes me miss the Zürcher Geschnetzeltes I had in Switzerland enough..
