Dear all, It was a bit quiet here. In the beginni Dear all, It was a bit quiet here. In the beginning because I wanted to put no pressure on the deli on a way out of lock down. But after a few days I realised that this whole Covid thing got me quite intense and I my body and mind begged for some (social)rest. I took the time for more experimenting, thinking of and working on the future of ÆNDRÈ, working on my personal wellbeing and development and walking many rounds around the Alster. Like I said, the way out of lock down: our terrace and deli are open again for YOU💛✨🥰💛!! But I didn’t write about it because I didn’t want to put the safety of all of us at stake for the sake of turnover. Our team is doing terrific work since months, adapting to new routines, a new way of interaction. We already had one shock, it is my responsibility to minimise those kinds of shocks and gradually adapt to a new situation. So I thought that if I would be quiet here, it would probably be also quiet in the deli. But, since a few days I get so many messages from you that gave positive, strengthening energy and asked many questions, that I felt strongly that I had to get back in touch here. And what is a better way as to start with a photo of one of our first C experiments? Our Salted Cashew Cheesecake which we tried in the first week of lockdown. It was crazy to see how you all came to us, you made us crazily happy. Especially since we know it will do you good. I mean like really do good. It is nourishing the body and the soul. Instead of shortsighted happiness. The best of it all: we gave it an update: it’s called Salted Caramel Cashew Cheesecake now. A bit over the top? Maybe.. But we added a layer of caramel made out of fresh dates 🤤 which must be mentioned in the title. Happy to hear your feedback 💛And happy to get back in touch. And even more happy for your positive vibes you gave us in the deli and here online. 💛Your presence on our terrace. The first salads in @sinikkaharmsceramics Thank you, for your smiles under the masks. They are felt and we hope you feel ours. Sending sunny vibes your way, Janine & The Team #ÆNDRÈ #togetherness
Dear all, We have an update💛We are allowed to Dear all, We have an update💛We are allowed to open up again! With abstand..This is such a step forward! But we keep our business the coming days, the same as the last days: 9-15 for take out. Weeks ago we all had to change our daily expectations and routines. For us that meant collapsed turnover, limited opening, no guests inside, mundschutz, take away, a different menu, a ‘smaller’ team. We tried, made mistakes, adapted, learned, felt positive and strong, sad and vulnerable. We felt how risky the business is. We also felt how wonderful people are and how strong the support. We heard critical voices, felt collectiveness and joined 9pm applause. Weeks of eliminated social connection, changed business and a collective trauma cannot be turned around in 1 day. Back to normal in 1 day? What is normal? There are new rules, new forms of togetherness. Will restaurants fill themselves again? Would you go to a restaurant filled with masks? I don’t know. What I do know is that we need to learn, plan, go step by step. What I also know is that restaurants live on a specific number of tables, based on that well-planned staff and good atmosphere. In this new world this is a challenge. The one thing I want to say: if you want to visit or contact a restaurant; be supportive and don’t expect business as usual. This is business by people, filled with people and we all need to adapt. This takes time. And no stress. The second; we are learning, adapting and becoming more resilient day by day. If you have things that come up in your mind: let us know 💛We are here to learn. Hopefully we are on the way up! This is new perspective. For the ones working in hospitality. The ones having their moment of routine in a coffee shop. The ones celebrating life in a restaurant. The ones having their lunch between meetings. For the ones having a first date in a bar. We are on the way up! Thank you ALL for your support and smiles under the masks. We will keep you updated about our steps and are looking forward to hear about your steps. For now, cold brew nettle ice tea in our test-kitchen. Janine & The Team #ÆNDRÈ #togetherness
New Month New Menu! Today is the last day of all o New Month New Menu! Today is the last day of all our specials; think Turmeric Mung Bean Stew, Fennel Risotto, all the seasonsal salads. Tomorrow a new menu which we will present tomorrow or maybe even today, a sneak peek. In the mean time we are using this corona time to experiment some more. On the photo you see a black rice bread! To be clear: it is not available yet, but we hope it will be in a near future. What do you think? Have a good day in crazy times!

Since ONE YEAR we celebrate vegetables like the on Since ONE YEAR we celebrate vegetables like the one here on the photo. Since one year we are open and support the neighbourhood and people from far away with nourishing food, soul conversations and Cashew Mokka’s. What a ride it was. Highs, lows, or I would rather like to call them challenges, lots of laughter, lots of food which got better by the day, coffees, coffees, the best team eve’s, tears, night work, lots of night work, supplies, lots of beautiful supplies and market visits, beautiful conversations, discussions, creations, learnings. Every single minute was a joy and a heart ride. We, I, want to thank you ALL for supporting us, joining us on this journey. This journey of question marks, values, intuition, sustainability and taste. We are beyond grateful for every single one who came and visited us, for trusting us to make your food. It was a pleasure meeting you. Thank you for joining us here, online. For every single piece of encouragement and food for thought. For every single question and comment. You all empower us every day, and I’ll never be able to thank you enough for you support & enthusiasm. Since ONE YEAR we are a team. Thank you Team. I write this message also in name of you, but also from my personal heart, so I cannot conclude this message without saying thank you to all of you. Some left, some stayed, some came later. Every single person contributed. And without you, we were not where we are now. 
I cannot wait for another year to come, starting TODAY. It’s a tough start, but I accept the challenge. And everything else that is coming on our path. Lots of love, Janine & The Team Ps. Limited Matcha Vanilla Cheesecake in The Deli today and a small gift for everyone who is coming by. Ps2. I am beyond excited for YOUR best memories, thoughts, moments and photos here in ÆNDRÈ. It would be the biggest gift and SOCIAL NEARNESS if you share them here online. #ÆNDRÈ #togetherness #verändern #veränderung #ändern #eatthechange #bethechange #foodforchange #rollwiththeseasons
Celebrating in times of crisis? Can you be happy i Celebrating in times of crisis? Can you be happy in times of crisis or celebrate when the world is in fear and insecurity? No time for reading all my words? Scroll down to the last. I have 1 question that would fill my heart, and the hearts of the whole team, with joy. Celebration. A theme that is in my head at the moment. Why? Because this Friday, ÆNDRÈ is getting 1 YEAR old! And two days later it’s my turn to another year of life. We made beautiful plans for these birthdays. But these plans are of course, like everyone else’s plans, cancelled. Even worse, I am fearing and fighting for existence. But I am not letting the financial figures bring us down, or making them more important than they are. I am not letting this crisis forget us about the highlights of life. I am really good at celebrations so I will celebrate these birthdays. In another form, but what is stronger than a strong mental celebration? The realisation that you are proud, happy and full of love. What is stronger? Nothing. The biggest gift and feelings of joy and happiness come from within, not from external influences or parties. Of course, the whole thing gets more value and fun, if we can share it, celebrate together, but we can still do this, also in times of physical distancing. We just have to get creative. It was a ride, the last 2 years. But it was a heart ride, I followed my heart and did not give up. Everyday I took and take the steps to come in action and contribute to my own dreams and a better world. Whatever that second idea may be. I give my best. And I hope, from the bottom of my heart that we are a place where you feel home, feel connected, and feel nourished. A place where you might get some inspiration, or some fire to follow your heart. A place where we, together, focus our energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. The one question? I am beyond excited for YOUR best memories, thoughts, moments and photos here in ÆNDRÈ. It would be the biggest gift and SOCIAL NEARNESS if you share them here online in the coming days. Viruses are contagious. Calm, love and joy also. Lots of love and sending you hugs, Janine #ÆNDRÈ #ÆNDRÈathome #togetherness
