This is not just a restaurant recommendation – it’s a proposal for an utterly romantic excursion on a summer day in Hamburg: you call the 5 star hotel Jacob and ask for a table at their LINDENTERRASSE for noon. If they don’t take reservations, pls come early as a walk in so that you can catch a table at the front of the huge river ELBE under the beautiful lime trees!           Watch the big ships coming from Hamburg’s harbour heading to the North Sea. What a spectacular scenery! That’s why so many captains of big ships in the past tried to live in Blankenese.             Now stretch your lunch until coffee & cake time – and then try to bridge the late afternoon with a few sundowners to reach the saving shore of supper time.

This is a wonderful and unforgettable cruise ashore – on a relatively small budget. Ahoi Hamburg!
