The Gasthaus Bad Osterfingen is a large Inn and small wine producer in Schaffhausen (which is close to Zurich). This county restaurant has a beautiful garden, cozy "Säli", an Art Nouveau banquet room, and two “Bauernstil”, or country style rooms : a "Stüblli", and a tasting room.
Have a designated driver, it is not easily accessible with public transport.

(pronounciation: Zsur-ē-Gshnetz-lets)
A satisfiying speciality of Zürich, Züri-Gschnätzlets is a ragout made with veal, a white wine sauce and mushrooms. It is traditionally served with Rösti (Swiss Hash Browns). There are variations with onions, parsley, lemon zest, etc...
As to which wine, well, in that battle I claim neutrality. One side opts for one of the elegant Swiss white wines such as a Pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner. The other side prefers the subtle Blauburgunder (Pinot noir). In either case you won't have trouble finding one made locally.
