Pot Au Vert

June 11, 2012

On Mon forenoon nosotros had a few hours left inwards Zurich together with entirely plenty francs left for i meal. We'd spotted a vegetarian restaurant, Pot gold Vert, that opened at 11:30 hence nosotros skipped breakfast together with wandered closed to the onetime town until it was cook for us.





Pot gold Vert is located on the outset flooring of a hotel together with has a traditional, not-too-flashy experience close it. The caput waiter conversed confidently alongside us inwards English linguistic communication together with helped us through the menu, though the other staff fellow member exchanged entirely German linguistic communication together with kindly kept it basic.

There is a impress re-create of the carte du jour inwards misspelt but completely readable English. It covers a arrive at of cuisines - linguine together with penne to falafel, curry together with fried tofu - together with it's unclear how much, if any, is vegan.

There's also a salad bar, although it's much to a greater extent than minor than the famous buffet at Hiltl - no to a greater extent than than a dozen bowls alongside a focus on fresh unadorned vegetables, hence 3 lovely tangy dressings at the end. I scored a little plate equally business office of my order. We were also treated to some of the region's first-class bread. Seriously - a typical pre-meal spell inwards a casual eatery inwards Switzerland is a worthy challenger to what many high-end Australian restaurants offer.

Michael chose the sliced quorn inwards a mushroom cream sauce alongside ruddy cabbage together with dumplings (24.50 CHF AU$25.80). Don't move fooled yesteryear the angle of this photo; I'm pretty certain that plateful was agency bigger than Michael's head. I could barely believe that he ate it all, though having had a gustatory modality I could empathise trying! The dumplings had been fried inwards butter together with seasoned perfectly, the quorn had a lovely sauce (albeit non quite equally sophisticated equally my Hiltl one) together with the cabbage offered the correct sour contrast.

I took a punt on a seasonal special, white asparagus covered inwards hollandaise sauce together with served alongside parsley potatoes (20.80 CHF $21.90). Michael had a practiced express joy at the overwhelming yellowness of this dish - he'd been eating a lot of yellow, carb-heavy nutrient inwards Kingdom of Norway - but it was saved from flavour monotony yesteryear an first-class hollandaise. It certain gives elementary steamed vegetables a kick!

Pot gold Vert is a comfortable together with comforting venue for vegetarians inwards a fairly meat-focused city. It was a overnice glimpse of homely Swiss nutrient without the veal together with sausage, together with lined our stomachs good for the journeying ahead.
