18. May 2015: Restaurant TAO’s
I wanted to visit TAO’s for years but somehow never managed – finally, I got to pay the restaurant a visit. The “cold cucumber soup with green curry” (CHF 14.00) is a decent start and perfectly refreshing for a hot summer evening. The “beef tatar with homemade brioche” (CHF 38.00) on the other hand is […]
16. May 2015: Restaurant Maison Manesse
I have been a couple of times at Maison Manesse and I was always very happy when I left – and I was also happy this time. The menu (CHF 137.00) started again with a “sezchuan blossom” which has an interesting effect on your tongue – it really awakens your taste buds for the upcoming […]
15. May 2015: Restaurant Shinsen Japanese Food Culture
The “edamame” (CHF 6.50) is a good start for a sound lunch – however, it is quite heavily seasoned and salt is applied absolutely generously – actually even a bit too much. The “Bento Tuna (tuna tatar with rice; 2 nigiri (1x tuna, 1x salmon), 4 hosomaki (2 salmon avocado, 2 tuna); 4 tuna sashimi, […]
11. May 2015: Ciccio’s Ristorante
The “Insalata Caprese” (tomatoes, mozzarella with basil) (CHF 8.50) is very much average in taste and quality – the sauce is definitely industrially produced standard French sauce. Nothing you really want or like – plus, surprisingly enough you get French dressing in an Italian restaurant which I consider quite interesting in the first place. The […]
9. May 2015: Emma’s Konditorei Café Deli
Emma’s Konditorei Café Deli is a little gem in the middle of Hamburg – it is not a place you just randomly walk by unless you are in the area but it is definitely worth a visit. The atmosphere is absolutely lovely, the personnel is friendly and the selection of dishes and beverages is also […]
9. May 2015: Restaurant Das Seepferdchen
The restaurant “sea horse” definitely offers a nice lunch – called “relaxed lunch” (EUR 16.90). What was a bit a pity though was the fact that they had written tasty dishes with fresh lobster and oysters and the like on their chalk boards and did not offer it for lunch. However, the selection provided for […]
8. May 2015: Peruvian Bros. @ Food Truck Festival Hamburg
I randomly walked to the Food Truck Festival which took place that weekend without knowing it took place. And it was an absolutely pleasant surprise. I did not manage to try too many food trucks unfortunately, but the “Peruvian Bros.” which I had the chance to try, are definitely worth trying. The “Aji de gallina” […]
8. May 2015: Vernissage: Hamburg illustriert präsentiert “Prost Mahlzeit”
The Vernissage “Hamburg illustriert präsentiert ”Prost Mahlzeit”” where some “lobscouse” was served which was surprisingly tasty. But you would not go here so much for the food but much more for the pictures with the topic “Cheers! Enjoy your meal!”. Basically all paintings are related to eating and drinks and while I only took pictures […]
