Traditional Franconian food in Nuremberg can be found in many restaurants. We present here two restaurants that offer Franconian cuisine with regional seasonal products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Both restaurants are among the city’s traditional family-run establishments and offer excellent Franconian food in Nuremberg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Restaurant Steichele<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A restaurant tip in Nuremberg leads to the restaurant Steichele near the Jakobskirche. Since 1897, now in the 5th generation, the Steichele family has been running the traditional restaurant here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, the family has expanded and developed the business from a beer tavern more and more. Hotel rooms and new guest rooms were created, which fortunately survived the Second World War almost unscathed. Later followed a wine bar, a meeting and banquet room and more hotel rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Gastraum<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, guests have been offered selected wines from Franconia, Rhineland-Palatinate and South Tyrol. But wine from their own cultivation is also sold at the “Steichele”. Since 2012, Bernhard Andreas Steichele has been running the business, which received an award in the Slow Food Genussf\u00fchrer in 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you become “Slow Food” certified and what does it mean?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since 2013, there has been the Slow Food Genussf\u00fchrer, which evaluates inns and restaurants according to special criteria. The evaluation focuses on three criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good: The food used should be tasty, nutritious, fresh, wholesome, stimulating to the senses and satisfying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clean: In the production of food, care should be taken not to harm the earth’s resources, the ecosystem or the environment. No harm should be caused to humans, nature or animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fair: The restaurant must ensure that in all areas, i.e. from the producer to the restaurant, work is carried out under fair conditions and appropriate payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"alte<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Only those who implement these three principles on a daily basis, do without flavor enhancers and convenience products, and then entertain guests in an appealing setting are included in the Slow Food Genussf\u00fchrer Deutschland. Special attention is also paid to the use of regional products and the cultivation of regional recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can recognize Slow Food restaurants, which must be re-certified every year, by a seal with a red snail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My tip for good Franconian food in Nuremberg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I immediately felt at home as soon as I entered the rustic guest room. Large wooden tables with benches and chairs are placed in such a way that one does not immediately have the feeling of sitting at the neighboring table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Steichele<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We were at the “Steichele” for lunch and a look at the menu quickly showed, hearty regional cuisine is the focus here. From the “Franconian liver dumpling soup”, the pork shoehorn to the Nuremberg bratwurst, there was a varied offer. I even discovered a small offer for vegetarians on the menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From crispy farm duck to fillet of matie, we ended up with a wide range of Franconian food on our table. Everyone enjoyed it, the portion sizes were more than sufficient by my standards, and the price-performance ratio was right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
