at Stefan Berger's (restaurant) there are dishes ...

... you've never heard of before

he's always coming up with new ideas

his guests love this

you absolutely have to call ahead

... and reserve one of the few tables

... if you want to eat at his restaurant, 'Bremer Lokal'

he has a lot of guests, but he doesn't want to open a second restaurant

'sure, I could probably get rich from it

... but I consciously decided against it

I just like the way we work here'
