Restaurant Tim Raue
No.58 World's 50 Best 2025 — elite chef
Veronica's Take
In a two-storey building on the edge of Berlin, just steps from where he grew up, Tim Raue has been quietly redefining German fine dining since 2010 with his eponymous restaurant, now ranked No. 58 in the World's 50 Best 2025. Raue, who fell hard for Asian flavors during his travels, serves up a daring fusion of Japanese, Thai, and Chinese influences, all while maintaining a relaxed yet unmistakably high-end hospitality under the watchful eye of his business partner, Marie-Anne Wild. This is not just a meal; it's a precise blend of cultures, executed with the meticulousness of a chef who draws deeply from his roots while boldly charting new culinary territory.
