After a lengthy closure, Atlantic Restaurant at the luxurious Hotel Atlantic by the banks of the Alster is back in business. Chef Alexander Mayer (most recently stationed at Wintergarten at Brenners Park-Hotel & Spa in Baden-Baden) proposes his set menu, "Identité", and its vegetarian counterpart, "Flora". In dishes such as wild-caught zander, tom kha beurre blanc, gai lan, green mango and lemon balm, he combines his love of French classics (influenced by his time at Jean-Claude Bourgueil's restaurant Schiffchen in Düsseldorf) with modern style and Asian touches. A speciality of the house is its legendary lobster bisque. Top-quality ingredients. Well-trained, charming and experienced front-of-house team. Elegant decor.
