If massive sausages and sauerkraut are getting a bit tedious, head towards the Gartenstadt for some healthier options. This family-run restaurant combines local Franconian ingredients and produce from the Gartenstadt, with a modern and international flair. The flavors are distinctly German but enhanced with international nuances; the grilled savoy cabbage with curry and brook trout shouldn't be missed.

Michelin-starred chef Maximilian Schmidt focuses on a fusion of German, Asian, and Scandinavian cuisines in a historical building at the edge of the Altstadt. The four and six-course tasting menus are the perfect way to experience modern German cooking.
