Tarantella

Stephansplatz 10 Cuisines: European

About

Fashionistas, models, and the media elite, as well as the David Beckhams of Hamburg, flock to this restaurant in the Casino Esplanade. The open-to-view kitchen hides no secrets of the chefs as they concoct such sublime plates as lobsters plucked from a tank or such grandmotherly dishes as crispy suckling pig with creamy sauerkraut. Begin with such imaginative appetizers as octopus carpaccio with arugula pesto and a sorbet, or sautéed foie gras with kumquats. Among the more delightful main courses are a braised saddle of venison on lentils or a saddle of veal with fried asparagus. Monkfish comes with fried baby calamari and a wild garlic risotto studded with almonds.
