Local perspective
A port city with Hanseatic manners
Hamburg does not shout about its best places. Merchant understatement runs deep here, and a fine fish restaurant in Övelgönne or a family bakery in Eppendorf may have nothing more than a modest sign. What it does have is regulars, often for decades, and the kind of word of mouth that survives any amount of Schietwetter.
