Rügen's new cuisine: Berliner takes over a family restaurant and finds love!

Rügen's new cuisine: Berliner takes over a family restaurant and finds love!

In the picturesque village of Göhren on Bahnhofsstrasse, directly at the station of the Rügen Bäderbahn, a remarkable generation change in the popular restaurant "Die Räucherei" took place. Steven Weiß, a 21-year-old Berliner, took over the gastronomic company in 2025 after a burnout of his grandparents, which has been managed in the third generation by Ilona and Andreas Ebert since 2000. His return to the island of Rügen, where he had already gauded as a child in the restaurant, is not only a new start of professional, but also a love story that he shares with his wife Juliane.

The young restaurateur's decision to cancel his training in Berlin initially seemed courageous, but it quickly turned out to be the right choice. Under his leadership, the restaurant not only experienced an upswing, but also a food revolution. One of the main changes was the adaptation of the recipe for the popular fish pulets - this is now 100 percent of herring, which finally includes the past meat ingredients of the past. He not only maintained the classic tradition of the house, but also reacted to the wishes of his guests.

popular specialties and awards

The gastronomic success speaks for itself: "The smoking" offers a variety of specialties that inspire both locals and tourists. From homemade fishklops to the popular red and white fish soup to the Soljanka - the dishes have been awarded several times at the Mönchguter Heringsfest. In addition, up to 100 kg of fish are smoked daily during the summer months, which underlines the culinary quality of the house. Proudly 40 tons of fish are processed a year, including exquisite varieties such as Stremellachs, halibut, eel and red bark.

The smoking has space for up to 200 guests and also offers non-fishing dishes, which means that it has something ready for every taste. The restaurant is well positioned with a committed team of 25 employees, which also includes long -time employee Antje Kauss.

unique online service

Especially in the Corona era, Steven established an online shop through which the delicatessen specialties can be ordered. Made under strict controls, the products are sealed airtight after smoking and frozen in special shock frosts. Shipping takes place within 24 hours with DPD, and the careful packaging ensures that the delicious products remain frozen for up to three days. The recommendation applies here: Orders for the weekend should be abandoned by Wednesday to enjoy the change of delicacies in good time.

"The smoking" not only stands for a culinary experience, but also for the possibility of a family business in the fourth generation. Because Steven and his wife Juliane, who applied to be a waitress in 2015, are a well -coordinated team that also harmonizes privately - in Ranzow Castle two years earlier and shows how strong the bonds between family, tradition and modern gastronomy can be.

So "the smokehouse" is not only a place of enjoyment, but also a story of return, new start and love - a real piece of complaint that you shouldn't miss.
