Mission Restaurant

Mission Restaurant begins in the heart of the culinary world: New York City. In episode 1, Bernd Zehner immerses himself in the kitchens of this metropolis, which, like no other, embodies diversity. He meets passionate people and discovers dishes that will become the foundation for something big: a new restaurant in Germany, inspired by this journey. From classics to hidden gems – this episode showcases the energy that makes New York so unique. The mission starts now.

The farewell to NYC has an Italian-American flavor, and the journey continues to Miami. Between tropical heat and Latin American flair, new contrasts await: a seafood boil with Chinese roots and a hidden gem at a gas station. From skyscrapers to palm trees, from big-city hustle to beach vibes – all inspiration for the ultimate goal: opening their own restaurant. The mission continues – bite by bite.

The journey takes us from the vibrant Cuban life of Miami deep into the soul of New Orleans. Between chicharron and the perfect jambalaya, we immerse ourselves in a world of flavor. We experience Southern hospitality at its finest, peer into the pots and pans of chefs, and learn perhaps the most important lesson for our own restaurants: the true secret ingredient is always warmth and friendliness.
