Bistro Neumarkt becomes Cucina Itameshi

Eat & Drink

Starting on October 22, 2024, the long-established Bistro Neumark in Zurich's Niederdorf district will transform into Cucina Itameshi. This pop-up project is the result of a collaboration between two culinary duos: Zurich-based Nenad Mlinarevic and Valentin Diem, alongside their Viennese counterparts Tobi Müller and Eduard "Eddi" Dimant. At Cucina Itameshi, two popular culinary worlds are brought together in an unexpected way, blending Japanese and Italian cuisine and cooking techniques. The concept revolves around seasonal ingredients, cultural fusion, and a shared dining experience.
