General Manager Mario Schwann, in an in-depth interview, discusses the success factors behind events such as the recent Late Night Shopping, the growing importance of tourism and gastronomy, and why “rightsizing” is sometimes more critical than larger store spaces.

Thomas Bühner brings new restaurant concept to Westfield Hamburg-Überseequartier

Internationally renowned top chef Thomas Bühner is opening a new dining concept at Westfield Hamburg-Überseequartier – right on the waterfront with a view of the river Elbe. Unlike his restaurants in Düsseldorf and Taipei, the focus in Hamburg is not on fine dining, but on a modern, cosmopolitan all-day dining and bar experience that emphasizes accessibility and joie de vivre.
With this step, Bühner is consciously opening a new chapter – straightforward, inspiring and with international spirit. The opening is planned for the first half of 2026. Further details on the concept will follow – but one thing is already clear: Hamburg can look forward to a new culinary narrative.
