Is it possible to overdose on cheese? If so I am doing a very good job at trying but only to get in as much good food as I can before returning to Germany. But to back up a few days, I wish I could contribute more from my first full day in Basel but unfortunately photos weren’t allowed on campus. That said dinner in one of the many restaurants on site was really very good and based on where I was, I was very impressed.

Brasserie Quadrino – Zurich

Hotel Rivington -at least I am having some success in finding cocktails. I am told that nobody drinks them in Germany and they are as sparse in Switzerland so far. I think the Swiss will catch up in a few more years. Anyway loved the space and the bartender and their classic cocktails were quote respectable.
