Sansibar – das Buch

Sansibar – the book is the revised new edition of the classic "The Great Sansibar Book." It tells the exciting story of Herbert Seckler and his "Sansibar," the most famous beach bar in the world. Atmospheric portrait and landscape photos, along with numerous personal anecdotes surrounding the legendary bar, reflect the unique spirit that envelops this place and its owner. Prominent friends and regular guests such as Günter Netzer, Udo Lindenberg, Wolfgang Joop, Angelika Jahr, Günther Jauch, Johannes B. Kerner, and Ole von Beust contribute their personal "love declarations" to the "Sansibar" in words or images. Additionally, the "Sansibar" chef shares the best and most popular original recipes from his kitchen, such as tuna tartare with wasabi cucumber salad, wild salmon and prawns on crunchy vegetables, Sansibar's Wiener schnitzel, or iced chocolate crumble – so that it tastes just like on the famous dune in Sylt at home. Herbert Seckler, the host of "Sansibar," could never have dreamed that he would one day be named "Restaurateur of the Year" by a gourmet bible when he transformed an old beach kiosk in the Rantumer dunes into a kind of "maritime ski lodge" over 40 years ago. "Just no gourmet temple" was his motto. And it remains so to this day, even though the fish at "Sansibar" is fresher and tastes better than in many Michelin-starred restaurants, and the wine cellar makes many sommeliers green with envy. Herbert Seckler wanted to create a place where everyone feels welcome, and he has undoubtedly succeeded. Whether in flip-flops or high heels: in his "Sansibar," everyone is treated equally, with the same friendliness and attentiveness.
