Chinese restaurants in Germany

  1. A

    Ma

    Champion chef Tim Raue brings dedication to freshness, innovative aromas and local ingredients to his new flagship restaurant at the Adlon Hotel. The décor alone is swoon-worthy, especially the 2000-year-old Han dynasty terracotta horse (ma is Chinese for horse) and the gilded carving. The kitchen takes Asian cuisine into the culinary stratosphere and everything is light and healthy thanks to the complete lack of white sugar, flour and other ‘bad carbs’.

    Good Friends

    Sinophiles tired of the Kung Pao school of Chinese cooking will appreciate the real thing at this top-flight Cantonese restaurant. The ducks dangling in the window are the overture to a menu long enough to confuse Confucius. If jellyfish with eggs or fried pork belly prove too challenging, you can always fall back on, well, Kung Pao chicken.

    Le Lamian

    Watch the noodle acrobats knead, toss and pull the dough into submission before throwing the thick long results into a soup or frying them with vegetables and meat. Le Lamian serves modern MSG-free Chinese cuisine that makes ample use of fresh ingredients. The dumplings – plump, handmade and bursting with creative fillings – are swoon-worthy.

    Ming Dynastie

    Come for dim sum and then some. Try, for instance, the weekend buffet (6pm to 10pm Friday and Saturday, noon-3pm Sunday; €15) when you can graze on a smorgasbord of dishes both familiar and exotic. It’s in an unsexy location, but being directly across from the Chinese embassy definitely ups its authenticity quotient.

    Reis Garten

    This Chinese haunt rolls out the usual suspects from chop suey to crispy duck. Lunch is a steal at €3.90. Sit in the courtyard when it's sunny.
