T15 Hamburger Fischbrötchen

By HL fotoeins on 22 May 2024

Fried-fish’wich, from Fisch & Co.

Into the north on day E14, proximity to both North and Baltic Seas, and the history of the Hanseatic League mean that Hamburg is well-known for its “Fischbrötchen”: literally, any kind of fish or seafood fitted or stuffed into a bread roll. This is my goal, this will be my “fish’wich” of the day.

I’m around the Nikolaifleet (Nicholas canal), and I’m in front of recommended Fisch & Co., a small place that delivers a lot of fish inside the little bistro, and a number of fish-rolls for takeaway. I have a look, but can’t decide between two. I ask the woman who’s just opened the doors if she would go smoked salmon or fried fish. She’s big on the latter, and who am I, to deny the very first fish-fry of the day.

Crispy & crunchy outside, flaky and juicy inside; great fish-to-crust ratio. If I’m not careful, I might just get a second one, “to go” of course …

From Hamburg’s central station (Hauptbahnhof), the U3 line goes west to Rödingsmarkt station, from which the walking distance is under 0.5 km to Fisch & Co.
