"I loved the halloumi wrap(without mint)!! It was so good that I have no regrets of not trying Swiss food on my first meal in Switzerland"

"Great food. I ordered the Soujouk and it tasted amazing and was really fulfilling. The service was also excellent. There is a bit of a language barrier because the owner and chef does not speak English too well, but it did not cause any real issues. However, the owner/chef is extremely nice and helpful The atmosphere is also quite nice, the style combined with the smaller size makes the inside feel cozy / calm Lastly, the only real issue is that since the restaurant doesn't have seating, you have to order it as takeout and find somewhere to sit, which can be hard if the weather isn't good, so keep that in mind However, overall a great experience, the prices are cheap, the food is excellent, service is great, and atmosphere nice"

"A great place to grab a typical Lebanese breakfast! Saj Eat is a small shop located next to the train station and offer a wide selection of Lebanese street food made with Levantine flatbread (i.e. man'ouche). Their manakish are always delicious and really remind me the taste of home, and you have enough variety to never get bored. I personally recommend the classical jebneh man'ouche. The staff is always welcoming and friendly and their service is quick and efficient. In conclusion, go try out Saj Eat!"
