A Visit to Hamburg
Saturday, September 20th , 2025
Haerlin was recently elevated to three Michelin star status. Situated in an historic hotel in Hamburg, the savoury cooking was very good indeed, let down by some much weaker desserts. Still, the service was lovely, the room was grand and the menu appealing. The kindly priced wine list was a bonus.
Landhaus Scherrer is a very traditional German restaurant, noted for its schnitzel and its duck, which is carved tableside. I opted for the schnitzel, which was good, and finished with a pleasant apple strudel. This is quite old-fashioned cooking, and I enjoyed it.
