During the Salon Culinaire in February 2009, the Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Deira Creek’s team successfully won more than 50 medals and merits.

As the president of the Emirates Culinary Guild , Chef Uwe also contributes greatly in raising the awareness of the culinary art in Dubai.

He works closely with the DTCM in many of their events to promote Dubai and has a very high involvement in the UAE National Day celebrations, the Dubai Summer Surprises and the Shopping Festival, to name a few.

Furthermore, he introduced a tradition in the hotel whereby a gingerbread house is decorated for children - an event held during the festive season, where all funds go to a different children’s charity every year.

Above all Uwe is a very approachable person and has an open door policy for staff and guests alike.
