Rico’s **

Rico Zandonella, the cheerful chef from Ticino who has been the patron of Rico’s on Zurich’s Gold Coast for ten years and who previously played a key role in the huge success of the Kunststuben, is a self-confessed aesthete among top chefs. Rico’s recipe for success is that not only does it look but also tastes outrageously good. And impressive consistency is part of his DNA.

He is a bird of paradise and a dreamer, an aesthete and a perfectionist, a doer and a realist. Zandonella is a man of many facets, motivated by the idea of creating a place that exists because of the host’s presence and personality. He is characterised by a visible zest for life and special actions, supported and implemented by his entire team. This all translates into an exquisite cuisine at Rico’s, having been awarded two Michelin stars and 18 Gault-Millau points.
