I was very
excited to visit another great place from Switzerland. We went to Säntis a huge
mountain in Appenzell for an evening event. The event is called full moon
dinner, because the mountain is so high you can see the moon even clearer and
closer than ever and you have a dinner at the restaurant. Unfortunately it was very
cloudy that the view was so bad we didn’t even see the moon at all. But that
was just bad luck.
The cost
for this are quite high. Two tickets incl. dinner were CHF 165.- (almost the
same in dollar). This includes the transportation from the base station to the
gipfel and the dinner.
Hmmm… The
journey it selve started not god. At the station they told us that our
reservation is canceled… But we haven’t cancelled it so it must be a
missounderstanding. At the top we had the same discussion again. Very unorganized
that’s not typical for Switerland. But finally we were sitted.
The Dinner
it selfe was nothing special at all. You had a buffed for salad, main courses
and dessert. Everythin self service. I’m not a massiv fan of buffed and this
one was no mind changer. The quality of the food was ok but almost everything
was very unhealthy and nothing special at all. That’s apitty you could do so
much more with a location like this.
Locationwise
how can I say it in a nice way… you feel back in the 80’s. I think if you would
change just little thinks like having special decoration (and not a
lamminiertes papier with sentences on it) and probably somebody who tells you
more about full moon and the special thing about it the event would be super
cool. Now it’s just ok but you don’t want to go again. The waitress there were
also very unfriendly. You had to stop somebody if you wanted to order some
drinks. Hellooo???? All in all I was not feeling welcome at all and just like a
Massenabfertigung…
I’m sorry
to say so many bad things about this evening but we were so excited and now
it’s just like a waste of time and money…
The säntis
is a very nice place to visite. Go at a day time when the weather is nice and
eat before you go up.
