wir kaufen seit 20 Jahren unseren Fisch bei Hagenah, doch jetzt wohl zum letzten Mal. Seitdem…read moreHagehah zur Edeka gehört, haben die Preise extrem angezogen, ist das Sortiment geschrumpft und jetzt wird auch noch die Qualität manipuliert. Oktopus kann man schon lange nicht mehr kaufen, da der Fisch so mit Wasser voll gespritzt wird, dass man ihn nach dem Kochen im Topf suchen muss. Nun scheint auch der teure norwegische Wildlachs künstlich mit Wasser schwer gemacht zu werden. Wir zahlen gerne mehr - das ist uns Qualität wert. Für Wasser zahlen wir nicht! Wer Wert auf Qualität legt sollte sich nach einer Alternative z.B. am Fischmarkt umsehen.

And the video is... what's the comparative degree of worst? Worster? Okay, the video is horrible. And scooter is from Hamburg... Please accept my apologies. But the question How much is the fish? is quite suitable for this place: Fischgroßhandel Karsten Hagenah. Because they sell fish at a rather good price. Fresh fish. And you won't find Unhygienix there (we call him Verleihnix)...

Both of the above points are a shame, because this is a great little place. It's basically the Hamburg equivalent of good old British Fish & Chips, only in Hamburg they serve potato salad instead of chips. Portions come in three sizes, "baby" (3 pieces of fish), small (5) and large (7). I guess the names are meant to be amusing because a small portion would be more than enough for most people. Thankfully I had the good sense to order this. It's not particularly cheap; A small portion costs EUR8.40. However, the fish is excellent - it's just a shame about the location/opening hours because without taking a holiday I'll never be able to go back.

We were here with my Chinese in-laws, to give them a first impression of German food. so it was not…read morethe easiest for any restaurant to please us. However "Goldene Gans" managed to make us happy. It was crowded, but luckily they have a very nice back section, which I did not know about. So the restaurant is a good deal larger than it appears at first sight. The service was perfect and was not uncomfortable by a mixed language group (In-laws speak neither English nor German). The waiter handled everything graciously, brought the baby-chair for our little one (as soon as it was free) without the need for a reminder. Sharing dishes so everybody gets to try everything was no problem either an de got extra knifes and forks. We had deer, pork, Zander and trout. All tasted very good.

Not many dishes on the menu, but along with fish and seafood you'll see one regional (Northern Germany) speciality which brings an intersting twist. Simply but tastefully furnished. Very polite and attentive service. And what I found pretty amazing, families with kids are welcome. So if you're put off by snobby French restaurants in Hamburg, try Marseille!
