Meet Point
Edit ThisOffering: Turkish/Mediterranean fast-food.
Kabobs, kebabs, kebaps, gyros, shawarmas, or tacos al pastor; whatever you call them, this place makes great ones. Shaved meat is piled on a flour tortilla or soft roll (like a hamburger bun) and topped with lettuce, onion, and tomato; a choice of sauces--yogurt sauce or a ketchup/mayonnaise mixture; and a sprinkle of dried hot peppers. Any of the above can be left off if you wish, and this can be accomplished reasonably well by pointing and shaking your head if you and the server don't have a language in more..

Restaurant Le Mazot
Edit ThisOffering: Traditional Swiss specialties. Recommended for Rosti (a
Swiss dish like American hash browns with toppings, served in an iron skillet) and a variety of Fondues.
Atmosphere: Dark, cozy, sometimes very smoky interior; "garden room" in front is open-air when the weather is nice and has a heavy awning, movable glass walls, and heaters which allow it to be used year-round.
Money: Expect to pay around 15CHF (€9, $12.50) for Rosti and 25CHF (€15, $20)
for Fondue. House Specialties run around 30CHF (€18, $25). Soups, more..

Papa Joe's American Restaurant and Caribbean Cocktail Bar
Edit ThisOffering: Great burgers, fries, Caesar salads, and chicken nuggets. Fabulous spare ribs. Tex-Mex, wings,
stuffed baked potatoes, more.
Atmosphere:
Fun and funky interior is a mix of Americana--tropical, Southern,
American Indian, Tex-Mex, and old movie posters and magazine covers.
Clientele is laid-back; service is friendly and accommodating.
Money: Expect to pay around 25CHF (€15/$20) for a main course (it will
be plenty of food) and another 5CHF for a soft drink or 12.50CHF for a
signature cocktail. Beer and wine more..

Imperial China Mongolian Barbecue
Edit ThisOffering: Mongolian barbecue, for those of you who may be unfamiliar with it, is a self-serve buffet of raw ingredients from which the diner selects his own delectable combination which is then cooked while he waits. The meat choices at Imperial China include beef, chicken, pork, lamb, fish, and shrimp. Sliced vegetables, onions, and white mushrooms, sprouts, canned pineapple, and other non-meat items round out the selection.
Tell the host you want the barbecue and he will give you little red tickets, one for each member of your group. Pick up a plate at more..
