The Sakura is a Japanese Restaurant, located at/in the Train Station of Basel.
It is a very good (but not cheap) Restaurant. I like to go there for special occasions, like Celebrations etc.
The Restaurant is parted in two. In one part you can order dishes from the menu or have sushi a discretion.
In the other section the menue you choose is prepared and cooked right at your table. Its a japanese table-grill.
Its is better to book ahead.
When there is Mass in Basel (like the clocks an yewellery mass) you will not have a change to get a table here - too many Japanese that booked ahead for months ... (speaks for the restaurant, I think).
Tepanyaki (table grill).
Choose one of the menues.
Mostly starts wit Sushi or Sahimi, or grilled duck ...
then soup or salad with japanese stile sauce,
then Clams or shrimps from the grill in front of you
then Meat (beef sirloin or steak) flamb? also from the grill with garlik and vegetables (soja)
fruit salad as dessert
drink sake and green tea with it, if you want to be traditional. They do also have good wine.
Service is excellent and watching the cook preparing the food makes quite a show.

Schiesser is a Café/Tea Room and Confiserie in the heart of Basel, right on the Market Square. It was founded in 1870 and is famous since then for excellent quality, especially chocolate/pralinés.
I had a hot chocolate, my friends espresso/cappuccino in the cosy room upstairs. No cakes this time - we were tight on time, what we (especially I) regret very much.
Hot chocolate. But see my shopping tip as well ... Leave a Comment

My friend Phil took me and another friend to this charming restaurant. It is a neighbourhood restaurant, absolutely non-touristy.
The interior is modern, very nice. The staff in the family running restaurant was very friendly and competent. Very familiar atmosphere.
We had an excellent lunch. Salad first, then a parsley soup (hmmm) and risotto with mushrooms (great). White wine was obligatory (very good). And the 3-course meal was only 22 SFr. ...

This restaurant is one of the oldest in Basel, first mentioned in 1412. Originally it was located at the Aeschenplatz, but in the 1950s this square was enlarged, so the building was completely moved to its current place in the St. Alban Vorstadt. Everything was rebuilt originally at the new location.
Tables in front of the restaurant are available - under trees with views of the Rhine and the cathedral. Very charming interior, friendly and competent staff.
I had an excellent salad with flowers (eatable), salmon, king prawns, saffron and Italian dressing. Yummy! A glass of white wine from Lake Geneva and a coffee were obligatory.

Living close to Basel all my life, but that gem I discovered only recently.
The 4th King is located directly at the river Rhine (as you can see in the picture). It is a little bit hard to find: see my directions.
Not only has this small restaurant an excellent view on the River, the Middle Bridge and the smaller Basel, it also serves excellent food to quite considerate prices.
If you can (and it is warm enough), try to grab a seat outside.
Mixed antipasti plate,
Dessert: läkkerli sorbet with prunes.
etc etc Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: At the Rhine Border, Bigger Basel.Directions: From the Schifflände you walk up the street passing the hotel "3 Könige" on your right side. Always look at the right (towards the Rhine) for a small street. Take it and go down the stairs, turn to your right again and here you are.

To tell you the truth -
I have never been inside, but I always pass by this café, when I go to sit on "my steps" right next to this place. I think those tables outside look very inviting and so does the website. You might want to give it a try! Leave a Comment

Located right at the Munster place (opposite the Munster itself), you can find Cafe Isaak. The seating is in a small place in the back, or inside the historical building but it is always a relaxing atmosphere.
Eat lunch or dinner, or just have a refreshing tea.
They serve very good teas (all kinds), also coffee and bakery.
Have a relaxing break here.
Of course they also have a menue for lunch and dinner. Always fresh made. Leave a Comment
