Eating Dinner on a Monday night

If you ever wanted to grab some dinner on a Monday night, you might have noticed that this is nearly impossible in Switzerland. Many restaurants are closed Sundays and/or Mondays.

A wonderful exception in Gundeli which is also not too pricey is the Thiersteinerhof at Thiersteinerallee. Food prices are in the range of a Pizza Delivery service plus setting (around 18 CHF for a Pizza and 20 Francs for Pasta, Meat for about 30 Francs). The food is delicious, the restaurant has outdoor seating and is quite neat and tidy.

The restaurant is held by Antonio Germano who worked for the fabulous Restaurant Rösslirytti earlier. You can certainly taste that!

I agree; from the many Spaghetti Carbonara I've tried in Basel, this one is one of the best (not THE best - you'll find that one in Pomodoro in Steinenvorstadt)
