Halal Journey surrounding Geneva: Eating Out ala KFC

By
It's been a while since I updated the post.  Let's continue on the Halal food journey in Geneva.  As I mentioned earlier, there has been a lot of changes since the last time I was here.  Halal restaurants have mushroomed all around Geneva from the Middle Easter cuisines, the Indian cuisines, the Southeast Asian cuisines (Malaysia, Indonesian & Thai food) and also, the fast food options.

This time I will focus on the fast food options as orang Mesia normally will miss the KFC, the juicy and crispy fried chicken. Sehingga menjilat jari!  I think I will begin chronologically...

1.  Issy Fried Chicken - 8-10 rue Paul Bert | 74100 ANNEMASSE | Tel 04 50 75 96 36



I think from my viewpoint (please correct me ok), this is the first Halal fast food serving fried chicken surrounding Geneva.  Issy Fried Chicken is not located in Geneva but in Annemasse, France.During our last stay here in 2007-2010, this was our fave spot when we craved for fried chicken. A drive from our home in Versoix to this place is around 30km but when you craved for this, distance does not matter! 

2. Chic Chicken - Boulevard du Pont-d'Arve 28, 1205 Geneva | 022 320 53 44 |

This place is located near Plainpalais facing the UniGeneve.  I think this is one of the Halal oldest fastfood outlet in Geneva.  The place is quite large compared to Issy and the menu here are robust and the portion is quite big.  My boy loves this place as they can eat variety of burgers here. The best way to come here is to take the Tram 15 (Nations) from Gare and stop at Plainpalais.





3. Tasty Chicken -  Ferney, 26 Chemin des Mûriers, 01210 Ferney-Voltaire, France (Open 24 hours)

Tasty Chicken first opened its outlet in Ferney in 2010. We were excited as we have the option of a much more nearer outlet for fast food compared to Issy in Annemasse (we were not aware of Chic Chicken then but I think it was there already).  Tasty Chicken is just a 10 minute drive from our home in Versoix.  It's located next to Mini Coop and is very convenience in terms of parking etc.  For those who do not drive, you can take the F bus from Gare and stop in front of Ferney Mairie.  The outlet is just the same building as the Mairie.





4. Tasty Chicken Geneva - 29b Rue de Berne 1201  Geneva

Now Tasty Chicken has opened one branch in Geneva near the Paquis area.  The place is bit small and could not accommodate large crowd. For us, a family of five, we have to use two tables separated by aisle.  The food here is good.  Other than the fried chicken, I recommend that you should try the Chicken curry.. is to die for.. we love it so much! the portion is big especially for chicken curry set and you  ( only for Asian) can share laa...



Okay guys... next time I will share other Halal cuisines in Geneva... go explore these places that I share... for those who crave KFC.. some might meet your expectation, but some might not. Beggars cannot be choosers... so enjoy the food.

A bientot!!

Ingin mengembara ke Switzerland?

Pemandangan Switzerland dari langit Switzerland memang menjadi idaman para pelancong dan pengembara. Cantik dengan gunung-ganang, tasik, dan bandar yang kaya dengan sejarah. Switzerland bukan sahaja popular dengan cokelat, keju dan jam, tetapi juga menjadi lokasi penggambaran filem-filem hebat dar luar -- Sangam; The Sound of Music; James Bond; Diwale; Crash Landing on You; video clip lagu " Jackpot " oleh Bastian Baker dan banyak lagi!! Saya nak berkongsi dengan pembaca agar tulisan ini dapat menjadi panduan sebelum menjejakkan kaki ke Switzerland. Saya banyak menerima pertanyaan dari rakan-rakan mengenai Switzerland. Terutamanya rakan-rakan di Malaysia. Soalan-soalan di bawah ni memang cukup popular: (1) Apakah tempat menarik yang harus saya lawati di Switzerland? (2) Bagaimana dengan penginapan? hotel di sana mahal atau tak? (3) Bagaimana cara mudah hendak ke Switzerland, melalui London? Paris? atau Amsterdam? (4) Bagaimana hendak bergerak dari satu tempat k...

Kembara 7 malam dengan Motorhome di Switzerland berbaloi tak?

By
Sebenarnya hasrat nak mengembara dengan campervan atau motorhome dah lama. Dari kali pertama di Geneva dulu pada tahun 2008-2010, nak cuba tapi asyik bertangguh. Trip kali ni memang agak teruja sebab ia satu pengalaman baharu, sebelum ini pengembaraan banyak dengan kereta atau kapal terbang. Jadi kami putuskan mengapa kali ni tak cuba mengembara dengan motorhome? Mengembara dengan motorhome kena buat perancangan rapi dan tempahan kena buat lebih awal terutamanya kalau mengembara pada musim panas sebab permintaan untuk kenderaan motorhome agak tinggi. Dalam bulan Mei sebelum cuti musim panas bulan Ogos, saya buat perancangan dengan mencari syarikat-syarikat sewa motorhome secara online, cari syarikat sewa motorhome yang berdekatan dengan Geneva supaya senang untuk ambil dan hantar motorhome kelak.  Perancangan kitaorang lebih kurang macam ni: Pertama : Dengan ahli keluarga seramai lima orang, saya bandingkan kos sewa hotel dengan sewa motorhome dan kos-kos lain. Kami dengan ahli kel...

Jelajah Andalusia, Sepanyol - Alhambra

By
It's almost the end of 2009 and our tenure in Geneve almost ended! For our last trip, we decided to visit Spain!  Why Spain? In fact, we wanted to run away from the cold harsh winter time in Switzerland!  People suggested Barcelona or Madrid but we wanted to steer away from the hustle bustle of metropolitans and opted for a more relaxing and scenic trip. Thus, we decided to explore the remnants of the Islamic presence in Spain in the Andalusia. So on 21st Dec 2009, we booked our flight using Eastjet from Geneva to Malaga, Spain, the nearest airport in Andalusia and we made as our base booking an apartment there for 3 days. How nice when you can take some fresh air in front of your hotel with jean and just a t-shirt in December in Europe. To ease our movement, we rented car from Hertz to fit a family of five and picked it up at the Malaga airport itself. Coincidentally, we managed to get a sedan Citroen C4! The next day, our first itinerary was to head to the most beautifu...
