Dieter Müller

Müller has become particularly renowned for his tasting menus, miniature works of culinary art which demonstrate his mastery of nuance, harmony and presentation. Müller has created unique dishes for his restaurant at St James’s Hotel and Club, inspired by the spice routes followed by Marco Polo. The kitchen will be run by Christian Rosse and Philipp Vogel, two of Dieter Müller’s protégées who come to St James’s from Schlosshotel Lerbach and Gleneagles respectively. They will ensure that each plate is presented according to the maestro’s exacting specifications.

The Althoff Hotel Collection has an unrivalled culinary reputation. A total of nine Michelin stars are shared between its seven hotels and every aspect of the food and presentation at St James’s Hotel and Club will reflect the Althoff Collection’s ethos that only the best is good enough.

 Müller’s restaurant will be able to seat 60 guests and there will also be a chef’s table for up to eight, where a menu can be created to guests’ specifications. Formal dining is only one part of the offering. In addition to the restaurant, which seats 20 in the traditional fashion, guests will be able to sit comfortably in the lounge and bar throughout the day and enjoy an exceptional range of food and drink. The day-time mood is relaxed; this is the ideal meeting place for a working lunch over a club sandwich or an early evening drink with a colleague or friend. Then, as the sun goes down, the atmosphere shifts to one of evening glamour; the bar and lounge area become the perfect spot to enjoy a stylish cocktail or sample a selection from Müller’s tasting menu.

 The hotel will also offer a full breakfast and an afternoon tea, which, in the style of a true gentleman’s club, will be served with whisky! For those who would rather dine in the privacy of their own room, meals there will be served with the full ceremony of the dining room.
