Yesterday, our second Charity Dinner took place at Miss Miu Zürich. Every two years, we organise this special evening to support a family together with KMSK (Association for Children with Rare Diseases) – this time, Lewis and his family.
Around 50 guests accepted the invitation to an evening dedicated to togetherness. A lovingly curated four-course menu, inspiring insights into the work of KMSK, and a few magical moments created a truly special atmosphere. ✨
The highlight of the evening was the handover of the donation cheque for CHF 11,000 to Lewis and his family. Thanks to this support, an electric Opair wheelchair bike can now be financed – allowing the family to enjoy shared outings once again.
A heartfelt thank-you to everyone who made this evening possible. 💜
The donation will help train guide, assistance, social, and autism support dogs – giving people with disabilities more independence, safety, and quality of life. 💙
A heartfelt thank-you to all our guests, teams, and partners who made this possible. 🫶🐾
Starting October 1, 2025, our restaurants will be supporting Buy Food with Plastic. The initiative enables people in countries like Ghana, Nicaragua, and India to exchange plastic bottles for a warm meal. In this way, hunger is alleviated while plastic is removed from the environment and returned to the cycle. Beyond that, Buy Food with Plastic creates local recycling infrastructures where plastic is turned into useful products and jobs — giving families new hope and perspectives.
For every Charity Dish you enjoy, the FWG-Foundation automatically donates CHF 1.– to Buy Food with Plastic. ❤️
Our Clean-Up Day took place for the fourth time yesterday – this time along the beautiful Rhine riverbank in Basel. 🌿
Together with our ambassadors, we rolled up our sleeves and collected quite a range of items: from sunglasses and socks to countless cigarette butts. We even found a wallet – which, luckily, is now on its way back to its owner.
Just like in previous clean-ups, we saw once again how important it is to keep going and raise awareness. A big thank you to our dedicated team, who gave it their all even in the warm summer weather. We have to admit, the temptation to jump straight into the river was real...
P.S.: We did enjoy a little refreshment afterwards – with a relaxed apéro by the river. 😉
We’ve just opened our newest Negishi Sushi Bar – right at Stadelhofen train station. 🎉 The interior draws inspiration from the wild Paris of the 1960s, with velvet seating, retro décor and playful details. 🪩 From classic sushi rolls to creative specials and varied bento boxes, there’s something to suit every time of day. 🍣🥢 Whether dining in, relaxing on the courtyard terrace or choosing take-away or delivery – everything’s possible.
A place with special history: Right next door, over 25 years ago, we opened the Outback Lodge – our very first restaurant. A location full of memories, now entering a new chapter with the Negishi Sushi Bar. ✨
