Zurich was recently named Switzerland’s “star” stronghold by the Guide Michelin. Here food lovers can find an exceptionally high density of restaurants with the coveted award.

Would you like to offer your guests something unusual? How about an insect cooking course, for example?

If that is too exotic for you, you might be interested in a guided tour behind the scenes and through the delicatessen section of the Jelmoli or Globus department stores. Of course, there will be plenty of opportunity to sample the culinary delicacies, too.

The “FOOD ZURICH” festival also caters to a wide variety of tastes. Under the motto of “Pairing”, visitors can expect to find some surprising and sometimes unusual combinations of a wide range of ingredients and dishes this year.

Groups who would prefer to do things themselves can make their own cheese according to an age-old method or create their own gin from countless different distillates at Turicum’s laboratory. For those with a sweet tooth, we recommend a praline chocolate course or a chocolate workshop. At Lindt & Sprüngli, you can even don the uniform of a Maître Chocolatier while you are making your creations.
