Rüsterei, post industrial fooding in Zürich

Zürich is the biggest city in Switzerland with 370,000 inhabitants. Probably the smallest big city in the world. For the past 10 years, the entire city landscape is changing a lot. The city administration is pushing urbanism projects in order to re-establish certain areas into offices and homes. We can see it especially on the industrial areas in which old warehouses and factories get now a new life and look. Hotels, cinemas, theaters, a technopole with many creative companies and restaurants. And talking about food, here a great address in Zürich of a very modern and elegant restaurant called Rüsterei. It is placed in the heart of the biggest up-class shopping mall of Zürich: Sihlcity.

Sihlcity is the pioneering implementation of an original idea of urbanity: the associations of various uses in a manageable place.

The diverse range of approximately 100 000 m² of floor space includes several restaurants, bars, cafes, cinemas, community center, office space, a health and wellness center, a hotel, a shopping mall, service areas and city apartments.
The idea of the Rüsterei is to welcome you in a contemporary ambiance made from the contrast of a ancient place with a history and the latest trends of fooding. The Swiss artist Heinz Julen transformed this old paper factory into a great place, between lounge ambiance and modern bistrot.
