A menu with 60 dishes sounds like choice. In reality, it's a promise that no kitchen in the world can keep.
When everything is possible, nothing is truly good. Every dish on a menu requires fresh ingredients, skilled attention to detail, and a chef who truly masters it.
We have radically slimmed down our menu at uuuhmami in Heidelberg on several occasions. Not for the sake of convenience, but because we have realised that focus is a form of respect. Respect for the ingredients, the craft, and the guest.
Whatever is on the menu today is there by design. Every dish is a choice. A short menu compels the kitchen to strive for excellence, and gives guests dining in Heidelberg the assurance that every plate is the result of our full attention.
Sometimes those are the best moments: choosing a dish you would never have picked yourself, and discovering something new in it.
