Bremen – He is the son of steak house king Eugen Block (80, “Block House”) – and the first of the family to open a restaurant in Bremen.
Dirk Block (42) opened his ninth L’Osteria at Weserpark on Thursday. 197 seats on two floors, the finest design. So in the future, after the shopping spree, a hearty Italian meal!
Mamma mia, what a gastro temple!
Block, a trained hotel manager, is someone who lends a hand himself. “When I opened the first L’Osteria in Hamburg ten years ago, I learned to bake, wait and serve pizza myself”. You have to know how your own restaurant works.

He also often bakes pizza with his son Karl (7), who started school three days ago, and daughter Donata (2). “I will be a father for the third time in October,” he happily reveals. Block has been married to doctor Meike (39) since 2010.
And another top news: “We are in negotiations for a second restaurant directly in Bremen at the town hall!”
Incidentally, another restaurant was opened right next to the Mediterranean brick building: “The ASH”, 120 locations worldwide. On the menu: steaks and burgers from US beef, salads and brunch on Sundays and public holidays.
