Personal tips from Jan Schawe
Thomas-I-Punkt in the city, a beautiful house in the otherwise rather commercial main shopping street, combines art and luxury fashion of the own brand “OMEN” which is “Handmade in Hamburg”. Special tip: The bookstore on the 4th floor and the attached café.
Extra tip: Thomas-I-Punkt also operates the outdoor location “Entenwerder” on the Elbe. A sensational place to look at the water, enjoy good coffee and cake and let your mind wander. Jan only goes here very early or late or in the low season, otherwise it is very crowded and you have long waiting times. https://thomasipunkt.de/
Restaurant “Batu” – Cool Asian restaurant, run by the Kwong couple, who are known from television and the like. Tucked away in the attic, Schanzenviertel district … best noodles! Be sure to make a reservation! BATU Noodle Society 竹龟 Eimsbütteler Str. 1 2nd floor 22769 Hamburg https://batu.global/

Mutterland Stammhaus – even though Jan has sold his company after 16 years, Mutterland is still the Mecca for cool and tasty delicacies “Handmade in Germany”. It has already won the “Store of the Year” award twice and is famous for its breakfast, its Franzbrötchen and the delicatessen trade with 5000 delicacies from 200 local manufacturers. The glass chocolate factory is also worth a visit! Motherland PARENT HOUSE Kirchenallee 19 20099 Hamburg https://mutterland.de/

Edmondo – Italian restaurant, good food with a big city atmosphere – famous for their truffle pasta.
