Wolf Atelier Takeover May 30th & 31st, 2026

Sometimes life just writes the best stories. And sometimes several at once.


Firstly: Our head chefs Raphaela and Jonathan Burger are getting married – which is why, of course, half the team is unavailable. Mike Wolf, on the other hand, has already married and also runs a wonderful restaurant in Amsterdam: the Wolf Atelier.

A few years ago, he completed his apprenticeship at the Hirschen and is now returning to run the place for two days – which is a stroke of great luck for everyone: we can hit the dance floor at the wedding, and for you, as potential guests of the Hirschen, there is a whole lot of deliciousness that the good gentleman has brought along from Amsterdam.
