VEGAN HÄPPCHEN in Hamburg

The pancake was a real highlight, fluffy like a little cloud and with the enviable ability to soak up maple syrup as if it had trained its entire life. The egg was also great, and the coffee was a solid accompaniment to start the day. The so-called bacon gets a little trickier. Unfortunately, no bacon, not even noted as such on the menu. Instead, a mysterious substitute that smelled neither of meat nor vegetables. A small culinary puzzle that would probably be better served in an escape room. The service was also a bit confusing. Salt, pepper, and sugar only appeared after we asked, as if they were hiding in the witness protection program. The waitress seemed to be from the French-Canadian side. When we paid, she probably wanted to treat us to a coffee, because she made us five before we even got our bill. After waiting fifteen minutes at the cash register, it almost felt like we were starting a part-time job at the restaurant.

Un hallazgo sorprendente mientras caminábamos. La comida era fresca, sabrosa y saludable y no demasiado cara para porciones pequeñas.

Unfortunately, the cikôfte durüm was very small. A bit overpriced.

Best Kumpir in Hamburg, in my opinion. It's a shame that the shop has been opening at odd hours lately. Today we were told that we're not allowed to be in the shop at 12 p.m. and that it won't open until 2 p.m. Will it stay that way?

I ordered a falafel with antipasti and it was really just cold white beans, cabbage salad and falafel… the falafel itself was delicious but they could have added some antipasti to it. Unfortunately, it was one of the worst falafel I have ever tried. Next time I'll go back to Stern Falafel. There is a reason for the long queue… unfortunately, the people weren't particularly friendly either.
