MMHG places a strong emphasis on research and innovation. The group operates a dedicated chef’s lab, Studio, where new culinary ideas are explored, tested, and transformed into one-of-a-kind dining experiences.
At the heart of MMHG is a belief in the power of food—to inspire, to connect, and to create meaningful social impact.
Seasonality and sustainability are the two core values that define MMHG’s approach to cuisine, guiding every restaurant across the group.
MMHG works closely with local farmers, fishers, and producers to uncover unique ingredients—even those unknown to many locals. Through innovative cooking techniques and a commitment to using fresh, seasonal ingredients, MMHG continually refreshes its menus to showcase the finest that Taiwan’s land and sea have to offer.
By telling the stories of ingredients and the land they come from, MMHG seeks to spark emotional connections between people—turning each dish into a meaningful gift from the earth.
In 2025, sharing a mutual vision of shaping a better, more sustainable way of modern living, Alife invested in MMHG as a major strategic partner. Together, they will use food as a medium to promote sustainable values through a wide range of collaborations and events. With a spirit of innovation and creativity, the partnership aims to continuously explore new ways to design life the way we want it to be.
