Hot Fusion Restaurants in Hamburg

The Gaumenganoven (“palate villain”) have taken up quarters in the Ottensener Zeisehallen until further notice. Their special culinary coup: "Dinger"... or in English, “things”. "Dinger" are balls of dough fried in a special Asian pan, served with salad and crowned with subtly balanced toppings. The Gaumenganoven developed this symbiosis of Japanese takoyaki and Dutch poffertjes themselves. Dinger are available with different fillings from the worlds of fish, meat and vegetables, sourced from the local region and crafted into products with loving care. Six per portion are plated up – a filling meal for only eight euros.

Spicy, light phở from Vietnam, or is a rich Japanese ramen more your thing? No more need for tough decisions: the proprietors of Ume no hana between Sternschanze and St. Pauli make both of these traditional stars – 100% authentic, fragrant, steaming Asian soups. You'll want to dive into your bowl! Like the menu, the premises of the “Plum Blossom” unites Vietnamese street food flair and classic decorative elements from Japan. Bring along an insatiable craving for liquid satisfaction and you’ll be in seventh soup heaven here. From eight euros upwards.

Though TV chef Tim Mälzer himself doesn't preside over the stove at this temple of flavour on the Alster’s banks, his handwriting is all over the concept – from the uncluttered interior and skilfully casual service to the love of detail in the open kitchen. The team uses local produce to conjures up playful Japanese dishes with a Hanseatic note. The changing lunch menu is complemented by permanent signature dishes and a varied salad bar. In the evenings a main dish costs between 14 and 24 euros. Except for the exclusive Wagyu beef, which weighs in at 65 euros.

New York meets Italy! The Opposto, with its meticulously consistent industrial design, not only conjures up stone-baked pizzas with sophisticated toppings from the oven, but juicy burgers from the grill that feature home-made beef patties. Popular snacks and starters such as sweet potato fries with truffle mayonnaise, burrata or barbecued avocado make the gourmet trip to Little Italy perfect. Kitchen and service are masters of quality: everything’s fresh, tastes brilliant and gets to the table quickly – fast food in the very best sense. If you invest ten to 20 euros, you’re guaranteed to go home well-fed and contented.

We've loved Spanish tapas and Arab mezze forever. At last, the principle of a thousand little plates and bowls is also available in delicious Far Eastern style – in the heart of Winterhude. In the plain surroundings of Vous, friends and gastronomy experts Vo and Vu serve Pan-Asian delights to share and sample. They blur culinary borders with creative tricks that serve the continent’s diverse flavours at lunch and dinner. The Asian tapas with the special twist are available from 4.50 euros. Main course dishes start at nine euros.
