🇩🇪 Hamburg’s Fish Burger Adventure 🍔🐟

Finally caved and tried Hamburg’s famous fish burgers—here’s the real deal beyond Instagram hype! 🦐 The Shrimp Burger (€9.90) A brioche bun packed with: • Plump North Sea shrimp (slightly overbreaded) • Zesty lime mayo (needed more kick) • Crispy lettuce for texture 🐟 The Raw Herring Burger (€4.80) For brave souls only: ✓ Traditional "Matjes" herring cured in-house ✓ Pickles & onions cutting through the fishiness ✓ Served ice-cold (as it should be) 🍚 Tomato-Garlic Shrimp Rice (€24) • Generous shrimp portion (15+ count!) • Rich bisque-like sauce (could use more garlic) • Steamed rice that soaked up all the juices 🍷 Wine Pairing The Baden Riesling (€8.50/glass) was the MVP: 2020 vintage with peachy notes 🍑 Perfect acidity to cut through oily fish 🍟 Lunch Set (€12) Solid but unspectacular: ✓ Classic fish filet (a tad dry) ✓ Hand-cut fries (crispy but underseasoned) ✓ Too heavy to finish alone Why It’s Worth a Visit ❤️ 1️⃣ Authentic harbor-side location with seagull serenades 🎶 2️⃣ Fresh seafood delivered daily at 5AM ⏰ 3️⃣ That €4.80 herring burger—love it or hate it, it’s so Hamburg Local Insight 🗣️ The chef shared: "Tourists go for shrimp, but regulars order the fried plaice sandwich—it’s what dockworkers ate for 200 years."
