Hamburg (AP) - The Hamburg TV chef Tim Mälzer (49) still loves his childhood food.

"That's the Wackelpeter, that's my canned ravioli, spaghetti Bolognese and, funnily enough, something like specialty for certain delights," said Mälzer of the German Press Agency in Hamburg.

Even today he still likes to eat everything fried and ready-made meals, "which may not have an aromatic finesse, but which simply satisfy basic needs to the utmost."

This also includes the hot dog from Ikea, the roast set of meatballs, canned tangerines and ready-made mayo.

"You never lose a child's taste."

Often he even has to apologize for it.

His box of “guilty pleasures” (pleasures for which one feels guilty) is definitely “very full”.

Mälzer has a total of four restaurants.

In his two Hamburg stores - "Bullerei" and "Die Gute Nachrichten" - he employs around 100 people who are still employed by him despite the corona crisis and lockdowns.

He can also be seen in several cooking programs, including “Kitchen Impossible” on Vox.
