Nestled in Hamburg's vibrant Karolinenviertel, KOCHKONTOR delights food lovers with a charming cookbook shop, daily lunch specials, and hands-on cooking classes.
"Pasta with shrimp-lime sauce, spicy beef with spinach and udon noodles – such delicacies is Martina Oluf serving for lunch in her “Koch kontor”. What’s special: If her guests like her cooking, they can directly buy the recipe; the “Koch Kontor” is a lovely arranged cookbook shop that offers lunch specials along with homemade cakes during midday and cooking courses in the evening. It's just the latest example of a small boom – already seven such bookstores exist in Germany. Cooking has become a big trend – and that trend is spreading." - Cobblestone
