Hamburg's top chef impresses Michelin with unforgettable quail!
The “Guide Michelin” sets sail for culinary discoveries and recently announced the “6 unforgettable dishes of 2025” from German restaurants. Among those chosen is the sophisticated dish from the Hamburg gourmet restaurant “Lakeside”, which left an unforgettable impression on the taste buds of the testers. Chef Julian Stowasser conjures up an oriental quail that is served with mint spinach, eggplant and a creamy raisin sauce. According to the MOPO, the quail is described as tender as butter and artfully combined with a harmonious blend of spices and the sweetness of raisins.
Stowasser, known for his culinary creativity, stuffs the quail with homemade farce and confits it in flavored olive oil. The dish is refined with young spinach scented with fresh mint and a delicately melting eggplant compote. “The visit from the anonymous testers initially stressed me out, but now I’m much more relaxed,” said the master chef in a social media post after receiving the award. Stowasser, who was born in Freising, discovered his passion for cooking early on during his student internship and has since had an impressive career.
