The story

Dachsbau by Caliskan in Fulda: Regional Kitchen with Two Kochlöffel (2026)

Dachsbau by Caliskan sits at Pfandhausstraße 8 in Fulda, where the regional kitchen has earned two Kochlöffel in the Schlemmer Atlas 2026. The restaurant is a long-standing Fulda address with a painted facade and a menu built on seasonal, regional produce.

The kitchen and the Caliskan family

Deniz Caliskan has run the restaurant since 3 May 2023, following his father Gürkan, who has worked in hospitality for more than 35 years. Before taking over, Deniz trained in the family business and completed an internship in autumn 2022 at the gourmet restaurant Schote by Nelson Müller. The Schlemmer Atlas highlights roulades, beef fillet and truffle pasta among the dishes.

Rooms, terrace and history

The building dates to around 1750 and has operated as a restaurant since 1873. Around 1930, the Fulda artist Gustav Iller had badgers painted on the exterior, which gave the house its name. Inside, the dining room combines a modern style with wine bottle decor and a cozy atmosphere. The terrace was recently refreshed and serves lunch and business lunch by day. House-made lime cheesecake with white chocolate and raspberry sauce is among the desserts.
