Hamburg / Dining / Other


 

The reputation of this delightful restaurant imbued with country charm goes far beyond Hamburg. Guests from all over northern Germany come to enjoy the imaginatively prepared cuisine and impeccable service. Chef Volkmar Preis knows how to dish up Austrian dishes with a distinctly northern German twist, whether it’s salmon with asparagus salad that’s on your plate or fi lled guinea fowl on a bed of tagliatelle. The cellar boasts over 200 wines. This a good place to dine clients you want to impress.

 

In the park-like setting of this country house dating back to 1827 and just 10 minutes’ drive from downtown, chef Heinz Wehmann creates the gourmet delicacies that make this a Hamburg institution. Reservations are essential at this Michelin-starred restaurant, which blends the culinary heritage of northern Germany with international infl uences. The menu is full of hearty choices like oxtail with Lyonnaise potatoes swimming in a velvety Spätburgunder wine.

 

Nil is a classic for good cooking in the heart of St. Pauli. The kitchen serves mainly modern German cuisine, and the menu changes frequently with a daily specials page adding to the variety. The drinks list is extensive but user-friendly and offers a range of prices. Formerly a three-fl oor shoe store, the restaurant has retained its 50s style; worth a visit for the interior alone.
