The (hidden) secret of alsterhaus! On the last floor of this…read moreshooping mall is a huge 'cafeteria' 'mensa' sort of restaurant. In Le Buffet you have a wide choice of meals you can pick from: pasta, steak, asian, fish.. all freshly prepared in front of you. you can also pick your own ingredients in the asian corner. Vegetables, nuts, rice or noodles... The portion is usually big, and very worth its price. Prices range around 7EUR/dish. It's self service, and self-seating.

Tourist review! I stumbled upon this place when strolling around Hafencity. More like a cafeteria…read morethan a market place really. Lovely on the outside, high school cafeteria on the inside. The food is passable, with cuisines from Asia, India, Japan and Italy (I think) - all watered-down looking and not particularly enticing. Lots of stuff sitting in heat pans all day. Most of the businesses have their own seating areas but very little character to distinguish between them. I wanted something light and not sitting in a bath of hot water so I had sushi. The employees there didn't look very Japanese and weren't the most pleasant to deal with but it was like that in much of the city. The roll was skimpy but the drink was delicious and the best thing about my experience. TBH I gave an extra star because they had a nice washroom.
