Cooking philosophy
“Many colleagues meticulously write down everything that they have ever cooked and I myself have a recipe file of individual recipes - but in the end I don't keep anything, and I do that consciously because you are constantly challenged to do something new, yourself to develop further. You can't just quickly look it up on the computer or in notebooks. For me this is a good way to constantly develop myself further, to build up pressure on myself personally. You have to constantly look for new products, for good products, and it is also the basis of my kitchen that we try to use good products and then work them out in such a way that you can actually taste the suckling pig belly in the dish . "
