Sylt (dpa) - Jürgen Gosch, one of the most successful fishmongers in Germany, will be 80 years old on Saturday (May 15).
However, he is far from thinking about handing his company over to the next generation.
«I plan as if I am 50 years old.
I will not give up and plan at all, "said the owner of the fish empire named after him of the German press agency.
The Sylt celebrity restaurateur is still in the shop every day.
But he has stayed away from the stove since the beginning of the year: “Now it gets embarrassing when I grill scampi and prawns.
Then people say: Oha, what is he doing there. "
In consideration of his age, he also drinks less alcohol than before.
The trained bricklayer from Tönningen (North Frisia) first sold eels from a vendor's tray on Sylt.
In 1972 he created what was probably the most popular fish snack in the republic with his small but later legendary "northernmost fish stall" at Lister Hafen.
The multimillionaire now operates eleven restaurants on the North Sea island, which is popular with celebrities, and has 25 branches on mainland Germany.
