Urban Fork Zurich
There’s a new pop up restaurant in Zurich from the people who run the very popular Fork and Bottle. Their new venture is called Urban Fork. Described as an “urban craft kitchen” and located just a short walk (or one tram stop from Zurich HB), it is casual yet cozy, and serves a great menu.
With locally sourced ingredients and the quality cooking that the Fork and Bottle are known for, the menu offers lots of popular choices from hamburgers, to baos to salads and lots more. Vegetarians are well catered for and the truffle fries with grated parmesan are to die for!
We tasted probably the most popular menu item, the lamb burger and it was really good.
The Lamb Burger
Tasty and juicy, with caramelised red onions, goats cheese and a hint of mint – it was delicious.
The Duck Bao
There are three types of bao – pork, duck and vegetarian. We went for the duck, served with Hoi Sin sauce, spring onions, cucumber, coriander & peanuts. It was full of flavour and the home made steamed bun was wonderful.
We didn’t need any fries, but with our favourite truffle ones on the menu it would be rude to say no! 🙂 In the interests of research we also had a small side of truffled Mac and Cheese which was really good!
We washed it all down with a glass or two of crisp Sauvignon Blanc and the house berry infused water. There was no room to try desert but the Brownie Sundae and Deep Fried Apple and Blueberry Pie on the menu did sound very good.
So if you’re looking for some good quality, well cooked, casual and unpretentious food – why not pop down to the Urban Fork and see for yourself?
