Who's at the Captain's Table?
June 17th, 2018 | on the road
In July our first “Captain’s Dinner Live” will take place in cooperation with the FrischeParadies Hamburg! Five courses, accompanying wines – Do you fancy oysters, lobsters, Labskaus and a nice chat? Sign up and get one of 30 seats!
Yes, this post contains an ad for the FrischeParadies. Attention: Visiting the FrischeParadies can be addictive!
Our location: The Große Elbstraße in Hamburg. Twenty years ago, still grubby and marked by the fish trade and street hookers, it has become a gastronomic and gourmet mile. And right there, in the FrischeParadies, our first Captain’s Dinner will take place on July 27. A stone’s throw away from the berth of the big cruise ships, so to speak. Isn’t that awesome? We’ll have a great, fun evening, I promise you that.
Together with Ivan Pagel, the chef of the bistro in FrischeParadies, we have put together a menu, as it cannot fit better to a proper Captain’s Dinner.
The Captain's Dinner Menu
Oysters natural or with Vinaigrette
Lobster Soup “FrischeParadies”
Labskaus new Style
Monkfish Medallions with Chorizo and Beans
Rum Raisin Parfait
99 €
And best of all, my dearest captain most probably will be back from his assignment in time.
Here are the most important things summed up again:

Campari orange in white pantsuit
Many years ago, I once met an elderly, chic lady in a white pantsuit on the pier of Usedom [island at the Baltic Sea]. She was sitting there enjoying a Campari orange. As she left, she stopped by our table, said what great kids we had, and left. That was a magical moment. Since then, I have dreamed of living in the house by the sea, drinking my Campari orange in my white pantsuit in the early evening. I’m still working on it. And until then there is the drink as a cake. My Campari cake is the cracker in the summer!

Black salsify with blood orange hollandaise
Even if spring is in the starting blocks, there are still no local vegetables available. Until the first home-grown asparagus is on our plates, it will take a while – at least for us in the north of Germany. Fortunately, there is the wrongly misunderstood and a little forgotten „winter asparagus“. According to the motto „rough shell – delicious core“ I show you today a recipe for salsify baked in the oven with a blood orange hollandaise.

Asparagus Bread Salad with Parma Ham
The German classic “asparagus with ham” has been modified into an Italian-inspired crunchy asparagus bread salad. Of course, no smoked ham is used for this salad, but fine Parma ham. Fresh spring wild herbs, fruity-sweet pieces of melon and juicy mozzarella cheese round off this recipe.
