Steinheuers Restaurant

For years the dedicated Steinheuer family has been serving excellent food in a welcoming atmosphere; it's no wonder diners keep coming back for more. The interior is upscale and elegant, and the two set menus by Christian Binder, son-in-law of owner Hans Stefan Steinheuer, are exceptional. His pleasingly pared-back classical cooking lets the outstanding principal ingredient take centre stage, enhanced by just a few supporting elements to create a precise and clearly defined result. A harmonious combination of wonderfully developed flavours and thoughtfully placed contrasts is exemplified by the breast, leg and heart of Miéral pigeon, served with sweet pickled onion and sautéed pointed cabbage, finished with a pigeon sauce with delicate sweet-and-sour nuances. Gabriele Steinheuer and daughter Désirée Steinheuer, a sommelier, manage the service with warmth and expertise. You can look forward to an impressive wine selection and astute recommendations. Tip: Aperitif or nightcap in the lounge as you browse the various cookery books.
