Also for vegetarians there was always an equal alternative and each gang was excellent.

The concept of Carte blanche is known and therefore one knows what to interfere. Individual gears really nice, others too little harmonic (exterior: interesting contour, little typical “outer taste”, but no salt in it and not balanced overall) or even boring (sanddorn ice cream: tastes like frozen humphorn syrup from the reform house) and thus to remain clearly behind its own claim. Weinbegleitung i.O., unfortunately nothing surprising. High-level assessment according to price and claim.

Hæbel is a small, intimate restaurant close to the street and featuring an open kitchen with New Nordic, German, French and Japanese inspirations. Menu consists in a choice between Fauna or Flora. As habit commands when visiting Michelin level places we chose Fauna. It appeared that a wine pairing option didnt exist but the wine card was quite decent for a place of this small size. However, problems began when we asked for recommendations since we did not know the menu. Some like white, some like red, there will be fish in the beginning but if you like red you should go with red . Fair statement but it s not guidance expected at this supposed level of restaurant. Food concept is smallish servings that provide the chef a range to show off a bit while still giving a bit to both taste and chew. For us at least the food fare somewhat derailed. While the were moments of deliciousness especially in the seafood servings there were also the uninspired and a stumbling into the abyss. The absolute trough being sweetened lettuce on top of filled pasta !? Maybe there was a German reference we didnt get, and maybe some people with a certain childhood would experience a Ratatouille moment but we didnt get it. At 500eur for 2 incl drinks Hæbel was not a great sell, despite in the situational and inserted nostalgias

You immediately feel at home upon entering: The small, stylishly furnished room exudes an intimate and relaxed atmosphere. The menu is creative, modern, and thoroughly thoughtful – every single component is perfectly coordinated and demonstrates the passion with which head chef Kevin Bürmann prepares his dishes. We were particularly impressed by the way regional ingredients are presented in exciting combinations. Each course is a little surprise and, at the same time, a true taste experience. The service is attentive, warm, and professional. You can sense that the team isn't just working, but is a dedicated host. All processes seem seamlessly coordinated yet very personal. The open kitchen makes the evening even more special: You can watch the chefs at work and immediately notice the dedication that goes into each plate. The prices are high, but justified in every respect – for the quality, creativity, and overall experience, you're truly getting something exceptional here. A restaurant you'll want to visit more than once. Highly recommended for anyone looking for culinary highlights in Hamburg!
