Kafi Dihei
The cup
Co-owned by Geraldine Gschwend and Sabinska Binswanger, both with five-star dining backgrounds, Kafi Dihei is a neighbourhood cafe near Idaplatz in Wiedikon combining specialty coffee with homemade baking in a vintage, grandmother-style setting. The warmth and domesticity are deliberate; this is one of the city's most beloved local spots and a genuine alternative to the polished bars of Kreis 4 and 5.
