I’m rounding out my Switzerland posts with a couple of reviews from places that we visited in multiple cities, starting with Nooch. We visited branches in both Zürich and Basel. The menu was at least very similar in both branches, if not identical. It is an east Asian chain with quite a few clearly labelled vegan dishes. It was a very popular spot in both locations – you can easily book a table online if you wish.

All three of us at one point ordered the mushroom miso carbonara – in fact, it was so nice that Mother HH and I ordered it twice. It didn’t really taste of miso, but it was nicely spiced (warm, not hot), creamy, and quite light, with plenty of sauce to keep everything coated. There were loads of tasty mushrooms and some fairly bland tofu, but everything else had flavour.

Dr HH also tried Beijing nights, which was a sweet and sour chicken dish. The chicken pieces had nice texture inside, but the sauce reduced the crispiness of the coating, which is always a risk.

He also got the tuna sushi, for the novelty factor – Prague is sorely lacking in exciting vegan sushi. There was plenty of tuna, which was flavoursome and seemed quite authentic (to someone with very little tuna experience). The crispiness of the roll was a little lacking, but it was still a tasty bite.
This chain was a solid option for us – the meals were tasty, service was pretty fast, and there were decent vegan options. If you’re traveling with meat eaters it might be a crowd-pleasing option too.
