I was pretty excited when I read that a world-famous Ramen chain would be opening a restaurant in Zurich. Silly me! The normal bowl of their signature dish was not only around CHF 30 – but it was the smallest bowl of ramen I’ve ever seen, anywhere – it was literally what you might call a “tasting bowl” at any other ramen shop, if they offered anything like that. And it came with NO side offerings at all!
I’m not “dissing” the price – if you try to eat in the world’s most expensive city in the world’s most expensive country, you are going to pay the price. But surely a restaurant of this caliber can size the portions according to international standards, then add “extras” give you the feeling it was a good meal.
If you are in Zurich and a big bowel of tasty ramen is what you crave . . . I’d go just about anywhere than here!
