Blinde Kuh Zurich

Eating in darkness

"Beyond the culinary experience, Blinde Kuh embraces an important message of understanding and inclusivity as well as the power of sensory perception."

Blinde Kuh Zurich offers a dining experience like no other. Translated as "Blind Cow," this unique restaurant transports customers into darkness from the moment they step into the restaurant. Catering to both curious diners and advocates of inclusivity, Blinde Kuh immerses guests in a new world of sensory exploration.

Guided by visually impaired or blind staff, visitors navigate a world without sight, relying solely on touch, smell, taste, and sound. This unconventional setting transforms dining into a very special and unique adventure. Heightening your senses and encouraging a deep appreciation for an often overlooked aspect of daily life: sight.

Every dish becomes an exploration of the senses, with surprises that challenge preconceptions about food. Beyond the culinary experience, Blinde Kuh Zurich embraces an important message of understanding and inclusivity as well as the power of sensory perception.

Inviting guests to dine not just with their appetites but with an open mind.
