    Mark does not love everything he eats. If you pay close attention you will note that Mark is a very respectful person. Even if he doesn’t love a dish, he will point out and describe to us the tastes, and different textures of the dish. He’s got a lot of responsibility on his shoulders. Visiting countries around the world and educating us on a country’s food culture. Job well done Mark. The fondue looked so delicious!!! I want so much to try it. Thanks!

      our country isn't all too special when it comes to culinary delights. but i can tell you we absolutely have the cheese dishes nailed. if you ever visit, my tipp to you would be to try raclette first. it's absolutely godly. slice open a potato and put the melted cheese over it. also, always add a slice of bacon into the pan on top of the cheese. you will love it. try fondue after the raclette. i love it just as much but the cheese is usually a bit more intense.
      let me know if you ever wanna come. i will go with you and whomever you're bringing with you. see you!

    I am from Zurich:
    1. The fondue place is a tourist rip off. not the best quality, small portions and well expensive.
    2. Kronenhalle is very good but also insanely expensive, it is where the rich go and eat and normally 50+ age. One of the top restaurants in Zurich, but rather oldfashioned.
    3 . And the last restaurant (Bierhalle) where he had the jumbo cordonbleu was actually a very good choice. There are not many tourists there and it is classic swiss quality food where the locals go to eat. for Zurich the prices are also okay, they have an expensive location right at the beginning of Niederdorf. thumbs up

      As a swiss studying in Zurich who has never been in the Swiss Chuchi, but thoght about going there once every time I walk by, I might agree now that it's a tourist rip off. If you're able to eat a second lunch only one hour after Fondue AND Raclette, it wasn't enough. After a Fondue (which I love, but rarely eat in a restaurant because it's much cheaper and just as good self made), I'm usually knocked out for the next few hours and wouldn't even think about eating something.

For relatively cheap (compared to other swiss prices, it might still be expensive for foreigners), you might find some Take Away food near universities, schools or at train station. For living, I can't really help, I would recommend comparing prices online.

    Zurich isn’t cheap, but you don’t have to spend 126 francs per meal. Swiss Chuchi is a tourist trap (apparently makes competent fondue, but locals never go there), and Kronenhalle is one of the most expensive restaurants in the city (the bar literally has Picassos on the wall). In contrast, the Rheinfelder Bierhalle at the end is a favorite among locals, including me. (I was there just last week.) It’s affordable, down to earth, serves generous portions, provided by salty staff. It’s been famous for its giant cordon bleu for the better part of a century. (But you have to fast the whole day to be hungry enough to finish it at dinner, it’s so big!)

    Swiss guy here. The last place you went to was crazy expensive. 8.50chf for a salad ? It's the most expensive I've seen. Zurich IS one of the most expensive places in Switzerland. But still that was too much. I hope you enjoyed it though.
    But to the people in the comment section : If you come to Switzerland, please try the restaurants that are not in the middle of the cities. If you get the chance to travel by car, stop in villages. The cuisine is more authentic and way cheaper than that.
    To Mark, I'm so happy you came to Switzerland. Thank you for another great video

    I see a lot of criticism about the service personal and the prizes so I thought to give some input.
    1. friendliness in service is a thing of luck. I had bad experiences and awesome ones. At least you are not expected to tip if you don’t want to.
    2. Switzerland is expensive. And Zurich is the most expensive city next to Geneva and Lucerne.
    If you have to look after your money, don’t eat in Zurich. Get a Hotel in a city next to it, eat there and just make a trip to Zurich. Switzerland is small so you can reach nearly every major city in no time. Public transport is one of the best all over the world too.
    3. I can‘t stress it enough: only visit Zurich for a daytrip. Instead, discover the beauty of Switzerlands countryside and smaller cities and villages. You‘ll be pleased.

    I loved the way you enjoyed the Fondue and Raclette, on a fairly warm day too ! You mixed the ingredients perfectly and the look on your face when shoving those melted cheese portions into your mouth - priceless.
    Traditionally that dish is eaten only during winter. You can imagine, after a day out in the mountains skiing, coming home all exhausted and chilled, that hos fat cheese is the perfect meal to regain lost calories and because a Raclette dinner takes so long (melt cheese, scrap it out on plate, mix it with your potatoe, spices, veggies, eat it in 2 bites....rinse repeat many times...) when you go to bed you are so satisfyingly stuffed with delicious creamy melted cheese and potatoes you sleep like a baby.

    Watching you experiencing Zurich for your first visit and to see you thoroughly enjoy the food is a treat ! I love Switzerland. The Swiss are very friendly, approachable, and generous. I will offer this suggestion for your future food forays: always ask the locals which restaurants they go to. You will find the best foods at reasonable prices.
    I lived in New Orleans, NYC, and Washington, DC for decades. I am always more than happy to direct tourists to the restaurants that I enjoy. You don't have to break the bank to eat well in any city throughout the world. People who live in destination cities are always happy to point you to the good places and they ( we ) are also happy to direct you away from the " tourist traps".
    Enjoy your journeys and eat well!!

    I'm Swiss and I eat Fondue straight off the fork, like everyone I've ever seen. The potato is for the Raclett, like you did on second raclett portion. A fondue tradition is to put an egg into the fondue pot when the cheese is all gone and fry it on that crust.

    Mark: It made me proud to see you in Switzerland, after following you around Asia and the rest of the world. Unfortunately the two restaurant you've picked for lunch are either a tourist trap or extremely expensive. As I say: when you're finished your wallet is as empty as your stomach. To enjoy real good swiss food, you have to go out to the country side. There you will really enjoy typical home made swiss food, like you show us in other videos arount Thailand or Japan. Next time you plan a trip to CH contact me or any swiss guy you know. But make sure he is a local ;-)

The prices and the food will always be much better than the fancy tourist traps.

    Edit: It is tradional to eat straight from the given (long) fondue fork and sidenote, you're using ALOT (for most people way too much) spices. I only use spices for the raclette cheese AFTER taking it out of the oven. Otherwise you will burn them. And just slightly sprinkle it. Let the natural cheese flavour do its work. The crispy bottomlayer of cheese in the fondue is called 'the grandma' and its very delicious. The raclette cheese is mostly put on sliced potatos and spiced then.

    Hello Mark Wiens. I really enjoy your videos abour all the foods. And you are a really sympathic guy and everytimes happy. Im a swiss chef and i really like my work, im little disapointed of the swiss people they serve you the food, because they was really not happy face or like the normal swiss culture. I will be really happy when i can cooking for you, and show you my special swiss kitchen. The Zürich Geschnetzeltes with Rösti was ok, but my Rösti is much more crispy and golden, and when i serve, i dont destroy like the service girl is do for you, she looks like heartless, but she dont know that you bringing much comercial for her restaurant. When i cook for you im much more thankfull for your visit. Nice work Mark. Nice greets from my Cooking channel.

My sister, her husband and daughter, and my 28 year old twins and the hubby have such a good time with it. No fuss and enjoy the fun of just close family before the chaos hits the next day.
