Kochsternstunden 2026 // Menu

This year, at Schmidt’s, we are once again serving our traditional St. Martin’s goose — naturally sourced from the region, carefully selected, and refined with the best seasonal ingredients into a festive menu. Look forward to a piece of genuine autumn tradition.

Our traditional St. Martin’s goose menu

A crispy roasted goose lies in a black roasting pan, surrounded by browned potatoes and fresh herbs like rosemary. The golden-brown skin glistens appetizingly, with a meat fork stuck into the side of the roast. In the foreground, decorative illustrated autumn leaves are visible – an image highlighting the seasonal St. Martin's Day menu at Schmidt’s Restaurant Dresden, prepared with regional and sustainably selected ingredients.

The Secret of Fermentation

Several jars of fermented vegetables sit on a stainless-steel work surface. You can see jars filled in different ways with carrots, cucumbers, white cabbage, and other pickled vegetable mixes. The image shows results from Schmidt’s Restaurant Dresden’s fermentation workshop, where team members try out traditional techniques for preserving seasonal ingredients sustainably.

For us, sustainability and a mindful, respectful approach to food aren’t empty buzzwords, but values we live by – very much in the spirit of the Slow Food movement, which we’ve supported with conviction for many years.

Awarded by Slow Food Germany

The dining room at Schmidt’s Restaurant Dresden shows a spacious, bright dining area with set tables, white napkins, fresh tulips, and polished wine glasses. Large windows and warm wooden floors characterize the modern bistro atmosphere in the Hellerau restaurant. The combination of red accents, long benches, and stylish lighting conveys the character of a fine dining restaurant with regional, seasonal, and creative cuisine in Dresden.

We are delighted to announce that we have once again been recommended by the Slow Food Germany movement’s Genussführer (Enjoyment Guide). On July 15, 2025, the certificate was presented to our head chef and managing director, Olaf Kranz.

Enjoy Easter with us

On the window pane of Schmidt's fine-dining restaurant in Dresden-Hellerau, festive, handwritten letters spell out "Happy Easter!". The white lettering with a small Easter egg motif lends a seasonal, elegant touch to the interior. In the foreground, set tables with glasses and small flower vases can be seen, emphasizing the restaurant's warm bistro atmosphere.

Enjoy a relaxed Easter at our restaurant. We warmly invite you to a festive and seasonal Easter menu that beautifully combines spring and fine cuisine.
