Restaurant Otts
Hannover, Germany
The read// why locals go
Raimund Ott stands in his own kitchen at Restaurant Otts, an Altdeutsche Bierstube a few streets off Hannover's centre where nothing arrives frozen. The cooking is old-German and Swabian: schnitzel above all, crisp salads, traditional plates that change with the season, served in what the house calls niedersächsische Gemütlichkeit and portions sized to match. The promise on the door is plain — große Portionen, freundliche Preise. There is a terrace, one dining room, one chef, and no second branch anywhere. For anyone wanting to eat the way Hannover actually eats rather than the way a guidebook describes it, this is the address.
