Restaurant Dampfschiff, Thun

The food was amazing! The menu is a bit unusual with a bit of a Middle Eastern flavor. We weren’t sure we would like what we ordered but it was one of our best meals. We sat outside along the water. Highly recommend!

The beauty of this restaurant is not just that the items on the menu are original but they are so delicious. The location, decor and not least, the impeccable service make this an excellent choice!

This restaurant was a pretentious expensive disaster or us. Starters: 2 of us had a Mexican style tortilla wrap, they added some Indian spices they shouldn't have bothered , 1 had the Moroni soup it was ok , 1 had a salad basically bland. Mains: I enjoyed the beef at the time , but we will come back to that later, 1 Alpen macaroni , this should be a comfort food , it wasn't. 1 had the curry , nothing special , 1 had a hodge-podge of mixed vegetables. Desserts 3 of us had the Chai tea Ice Cream dessert the combination simply did not work , the meringue was like eating a flavorless prawn cracker, the ice cream was ho hum, and adding the zesty orange , it simply did not work as a flavor combo. 1 had the pine tree ice-cream, and yes it was like eating snow from the base of a pine tree. The restaurant seemed to think it was clever giving non sweet desserts, it wasn't. We felt sorry for the very softly spoken trainee waitress , it just seemed obvious she was given the job due to family connections and not due to any natural talent, we ordered 4 drinks , she had to come back to check on all 4 , she originally got them all wrong and then my daughter ended up with sparkling water rather than still which she ordered. So I think the one thing i enjoyed at the time was sauce the came with the beef main , sadly I woke up the morning with that taste in my mouth as i threw up. Last point we did inform them it was my daughters birthday, it's traditional here to offer a little birthday treat, they didn't.
