It's Asparagus Season at 800°C on Lake Ankum
Every year starting in May, it’s asparagus season at our restaurant! For a few weeks, this exquisite vegetable takes center stage here and is a true spring delicacy. Sourced directly from local growers, we use Osnabrück asparagus—which is particularly tender and aromatic—to create the most delicious dishes and specialties. Only the very best-quality spears make it into our pots.
Come and try the asparagus from our 800 °C Restaurant for yourself.

Asparagus Season in the North—Only the Best for Foodies
Every day, using fresh asparagus delivered from the Hölker Asparagus Farm in Nortrup, we create a variety of dishes featuring asparagus and fresh ingredients. Our annual asparagus menu has something to suit every taste. Start, for example, with an exquisite cream of asparagus soup topped with chervil cream. Next, treat your palate to fresh asparagus on a tarte flambée, paired with ricotta and Serrano ham, or savor the lava-grilled rump steak served with au gratin asparagus and pan-fried potatoes. Of course, no asparagus season would be complete without the classic: Ankum asparagus with parsley potatoes and hollandaise sauce. This traditional dish can be complemented by sides such as herb-scrambled eggs, Norwegian fjord salmon, or cooked ham. Pure indulgence!
After a feast of asparagus at our restaurant, you simply can’t miss a dessert featuring a selection of freshly picked strawberries served with authentic bourbon vanilla ice cream. The perfect finale to an asparagus meal at Lake Ankum.
Our restaurant manager will be happy to provide you with further recommendations on-site for an elegant wine pairing with Ankum asparagus.
We look forward to welcoming you this spring during asparagus season. Feel free to extend your stay and take the opportunity to enjoy a short getaway in one of our guest rooms or suites. Book your gourmet vacation today in the beautiful countryside of the Osnabrück region.
