1 comments about Cool Restaurants Zurich (Cool Restaurants Guides).
- It has beautiful photos of restaurants with only the briefest information.
Apparently "cool" restaurants are only so for their interior beauty and not for their culinary delights since this book seems to forget that restaurants serve food.
For each restaurant it tells you:
1) Owners Name
2) Chef's Name
3) Interior/Exterior Designer
4) Address
5) Contact Info (phone, web site)
6) Tram Stop
7) Hours
8) Average Price
9) Cuisine (very vague. For example, just "Fresh market" "French" or "cold Japanese")
10)Special Features (i.e. "Self Service")
What's missing
1) Dining specifics: Menu excerpts, famous dishes. What to try, what to avoid. Any mention of food besides describing it as "French" or "Italian".
2) Dress Code (casual, formal, nightclub)
3) Ambiance (i.e. quiet, loud music, lounge, dance club, crowded, sparse)
4) A single photograph with food in it...seriously

1 comments about Foot-Loose in the Swiss Alps (A Sierra Club Totebook).
- I found this book extremely useful both for the information it shared about the Hut avaliablity and the descriptions of each area. I was able to plan a well thought out trip using this guide. The maps that it provided were O.k. but not as helpful as they could have been. Because it was small I was able to carry it with me on my adventure and not have it take up a lot of room.
