"Yesterday we used La Casa's additional house service for the second time. Although it would be quite understandable if the restaurant, as only used for pick-up or delivery service, seemed somewhat unpleasant, this was not the case at all. I really thought that was quite remarkable and really beautiful! The guest room was pleasantly heated, the wall lights radiated a cozy light into the so empty rooms... You wish it was full of cheerful guests and you yourself in the middle. A great praise for the operators who live the charm of the restaurant in so difficult times. The other facts are quickly said: Very nice operator, great food! We order again and look forward to a nice evening in your cozy garden with wine and your legendary Pizza Pane. Wait! Lucky for you!"

"Also von mir leider nur 4 Sterne WEIL ich seit ca 3 Jahren immer nur das gleiche Gericht bestelle, nämlich die Parmesan Trüffel Pasta. Und seit der Pandemie bzw Preiserhöhungen fing sie an weniger nach Trüffel zu schmecken: Aktuell schmeckt sie kaum noch nach Trüffel. Der Originalgeschmack ist einfach nicht mehr da, sodass ich nun seltener zum Essen komme und mir dann eher die Mühe mache das Gericht selber zu kochen. Und die Portionen werden kleiner... Ich würde mich freuen, wenn die Parmesan Trüffel Pasta wieder nach Trüffel schmeckt: Ansonsten ist alled top! Service ist top! Und jeder der Gäste liebt die Gerichte die sie servieren. Definitiv ein und mehrere Besuche wert!"

"We have already visited both restaurants several times. The food really tastes great and the price is fine. Unfortunately, the last visits have been negative for us. (Hüxterdamm orders are received late, it is not asked if everything is okay or if you want to drink something and generally you have the feeling that you are ignored. A friendly and welcome occurrence is missing. The ladies don't feel so good (Absacker would there be only “Wodka or something similar” ?? Only a gentleman does not meet the whole thing. This is always trying. For such a high-quality restaurant, unfortunately, a behavior does not fit."

Cafe Hansehof

"Luckily, Lübeck's old town is by no means poor at individual, perhaps even family-run cafes, which are not only branches of one of the dominant bakery chains, but also provide a much more personalized hospitality with their uniqueness and charm. I have already reported about a few, and in this collection, the Cafe Hansehof cannot be missed. The cafe is hidden in an inner courtyard that can be reached via the Wahmstraße. This location alone makes the cafe a secret tip for locals who long for a quiet time away from the crowds of tourists in the warm seasons, which of course come to the more exposed cafes. In addition to many seating in the inner courtyard, the interior located on two floors also delights the guest with a very lovingly designed interior, which has a lively and unique effect mainly due to many antique furnishings. This impression is also reflected in the mind of the operator pair. At lunch in May 2017, when I visited the Cafe Hansehof, the house owner Petra Roos took care of the service. The familial hospitality that she radiated on it immediately leads to a feeling of warm welcome that illuminates the mood and makes the stay all the more pleasant. In a nice conversation, I also learned that by 2015 she had already run a restaurant called Remise just a few houses away. After the termination of the lease, she (luckily for us Lübecker) remained the queen of the Hanse and has now found a new permanent place for her gastronomic heart project. In addition to cakes, breakfast arrangements and sandwiches, it is mainly an offer of many different hearty and sweet pancake dishes, which the Cafe Hansehof has written on the flags and has also become its flagship in Lübecker Gastronomy. These dishes also made me aware of the restaurant and should of course also be my food of choice. In the high north it certainly does not seem unusual that I chose a pancake creation with reference to the sea: a salmon pancake filled with smoked salmon, sour cream, fine apple slices, rag onions and some cream merrettich. (Please click on the picture to see it in the whole. I apologise for the not exactly good quality) salmon pancakes, filled with smoked salmon, sour cream, fine apple slices, rag onions and some cream horseradish. It was already noticed at the first touch that there was really thought about the composition and the court and this was prepared with just as much heart blood. The pancake dough was not too thick or too thin and made the filling tasteful space. There was no ingredient in this, but everything complemented each other in a very good relationship. The smoke aroma of the salmon, the light sweetness and acidity of the apple slices, the slight sharpness of the horseradish, the freshness of the Sour Cream and finally the bite through the onions. Only a small pinch of salt and maybe a few additional (maybe Dill suitable for salmon) would in my opinion be missing for a completely perfect composition. Even at the end of my visit, Fr. Roos concluded this with her great cordiality. After an interesting conversation about the pancake creation and their idea of specializing in such pancake dishes with the cafe, she actually didn't want to accept my tip because I was such a nice, friendly guest for you. Of course, I insisted on wanting to reward them for this great time in their cafe, but nevertheless: How often do you find such a hospitality nowadays? I just wish the Cafe Hansehof all the best and continued stability and success. I strongly recommend that everyone be convinced of the hospitality and the quality of food they have lived here. The cafe definitely deserves to be more than just a secret tip in the Lübecker Gastronomy ."

Löffelbar

"Only very few people are likely to have a strong, warm soup in general, we begin our first culinary experiences as a baby with liquid food. But a lot of people can also report about grandmothers or mama's stew, which they have fed as a child with a much too large spoon, more or less tack-free, often for their own mouth. This warming feeling is also that the small spoon bar in the Lübecker Hüxstraße attracts its customers. Outside view. The small restaurant announces to the guest with its red awning from a long distance. If you are standing right in front, the glazed front of the wine-red painted house with the name standing in large white letters is only right a eye-catcher for hungry. Something sober presents itself to the interior. Interior view. Colour was not dispensed with with something green. The wood-metal cellar is kept on the simple and unpadded side (which would still be understandable, as the danger of staining in a soup offer is certainly significantly higher and the upholstery would only have a very short half-life. More than stools and simple tables, however, there is no need here, since a soup is often fed quickly and is intended to serve less than a menu for joint meetings. Funny and at the same time me found that the high chairs were so appropriate that at least with me the soup bowl was placed on the table so that the way to the mouth was really short. Perfectly dimensioned to minimize the risk of pliceries. ; The tables were clean and blunt. A funny accessory is the daily newspapers that are suspended on the wall and can be studied during its short soup period. Something “living” in the form of plants or even more cozy lighting would have been missing for a perfectly chubby “suppen atmosphere” for my personal impression. A chubby feeling is of course to give the soups and stews to which the spoonbar has self-explanatoryly specialized. The variety of this food form is of course predestined to allow the offer to be changed weekly and also daily and thus to offer standing soup heads again and again new reason to return. In the week of my visit there were, for example, Masala chickens; pumpkin tubes; Tomato-Käsetortellini and a curry-lens soup with mint on the board, which was already visible outside on the facade and also in the interior. Sweets can complete their meal, e.g., with likewise chubby milk rice. One more word to the service. This is also adapted to the fact that customers usually return here for a quick lunch break or strengthening. It is ordered directly at the counter, where the selected food is also immediately filled and served. At the end, the dishes, sometimes also empty, are stored in a tray holder by the guest. Thus, a service assessment is aimed more at the character of the staff present. This was limited to the owner as a one-man show. With his open-hearted and friendly way, he spread an absolutely inviting mood and was also called “Schnack” for loose and fun small talk (here in northern Germany). A question about satisfaction was, of course, just like the offer to supplement bread. The harmonious country music in the background was perfect for his mind. From the above offer, I decided for the curry-lens soup with mint. At a price of 4.8 € there was an appropriate portion of an estimated 400 ml to which there was free gray bread. Curry tin soup with mint and coriander. In the white soup bowl, a counter-scattered black base served as a retaining basin for flooding events, as well as for depositing the two slices of gray bread, which of course had only a standard quality. However, they were juicy and soft and thus not old-baked, which corresponded to the quality expected for the price for me. I could ask for additional coriander for me. But this extra spice would not have needed it, because the optimally tempered soup kept both the promised (mild curry taste and the ethereal impact of the mint. These were in good proportion, so no aroma dominated. Tastefully really a round thing. For my personal preference, it would have only been possible to have a few crisp lenses for some bite in the otherwise perfect soup for this level. Here the soup was completely spiced. The consistency was as successful as the taste: neither too thin, nor too thick. At the bottom of the line, it remains to be observed that my culinary expectations have been met to almost 100%. The friendly and open-minded nature of the owner also contributed to a happy strengthening. Thus, for my impression, there is actually only the desire to express a little more heat when designing the interior. Clean and in good condition it was all. So after this visit, the spoonbar showed me as an absolutely sensible and recommended part of the city's gastronomy Lübecks."
