For chef Markus Nagy, great cooking begins with craftsmanship, experience and a genuine respect for the product. At Zum Hirsch in Remchingen-Wilferdingen, he brings together the flavours of Baden with Mediterranean influences, creating a cuisine that feels both rooted in the region and open to inspiration from beyond.
Regional and seasonal ingredients form the foundation of his cooking, complemented by carefully selected products that allow him to add a more international character to familiar flavours. His dishes are refined without losing their sense of warmth and generosity – reflecting both his extensive experience and his personal approach to gastronomy.
Set within the historic surroundings of Zum Hirsch, Markus’ cuisine combines tradition with contemporary ideas. Whether through a regional classic or a more Mediterranean-inspired creation, his focus remains the same: honest flavours, precise craftsmanship and creating dishes that guests simply enjoy eating.
“For me, good cooking is about respecting the product and knowing when to let it speak for itself. I want to combine the flavours of our region with new influences, while always keeping the dish honest and recognisable.”
