The New New

Read the Full Story

The two founders of The New New have felt the impact of the trend for decluttering. That’s because, in their shop in district 6, Michèle Roten and Lucy Prader only sell clothes that people no longer want. This includes everything from designer blazers to fast fashion shirts.

Sprössling

Read the Full Story

When her bakery created a vegan croissant, it became a firm favourite among customers. Would a completely plant-based café prove to be just as successful? Yasi Gnädinger gave it a shot, establishing Sprössling – which puts a vegan spin on everything from latte macchiatos to doughnuts and burgers – across from her traditional bakery Gnädinger.

Everyone’s talking about Sara Hochuli’s amazing cakes. She has attracted a celebrity clientele that includes the Rolling Stones, Amy McDonald and Björk, and companies like Swatch, Swarovski, Google and Greenpeace have also fallen in love with her extraordinary creations.

Kleine Freiheit

Read the Full Story

Residents of Zurich’s Kreis 6 have been enjoying their Kleine Freiheit, a small, alternative bar located in the Weinbergpark, since summer 2013. It’s run by Rea Zaverdinos and her right-hand woman, Anna Rotter. Together, the two women have turned the bar – which is open all year round – into an even more attractive venue, with sunshades, flowers and brunch.

Mesa

Read the Full Story

‘No problems finding us?’ This is how Sebastian Rösch always greets his guests. Mesa may have been awarded a Michelin star and 16 Gault Millau points, but from the outside it looks like a nondescript local pub. Sebastian serves the kind of food that he likes to eat himself: ‘I’m immune to trends.’

Café des Amis

Read the Full Story

Café des Amis is known across the city for its lavish brunch menu. Almost all ingredients used come from within the region. Miguel Castro and his team always avoid using products that come from large corporations. Whether it’s lunchtime or for dinner, the food should be fresh and local.
