About us



Honesty and solutions
The all-year team is head chef Kim Jensen, caterer Anne Nordberg, restaurant manager Polly Martin and owner Pia Fuglsang.
In the high season from May to October, the team is enriched with 12-15 extra employees. Every year we look forward to 'gathering the family', when local young people return for the summer, to help us when things get very busy.
It is of utmost importance to maintain a good worklife, and happy employees. We serve not only our guests, but equally each other.
The motto at all times is: Honesty and solutions!

Pia Fuglsang
Owner
Owner Pia Fuglsang, 56 years.
Started as a servant at Mumm in 2012, during her bachelor's degree in philosophy in Odense, living in Svendborg. Not knowing back then she prepared herself to become a restaurateur, as she bought and took over Mumm in 2017. It was not planned that the study of philosophy should lead to a restaurateur job. But that's how it turned out. Asked what the bachelor could then be used for, the answer is: ‘EVERYTHING! I consult it every day ’ Previously, Pia was employed in the graphic industry as a purchaser and project manager, and for a number of years emplyoed at a magazine for farming and agriculture. The funny part is that all Pia's grandparents ran restaurants and hotels in Ærøskøbing. On father's side, it was great-grandfather Michael Fuglsang who started Landbogården in 1919, while grandmother Birthe and grandfather Andreas Groth-Rasmussen on moms side ran Hotel Harmonien from 1942 to 1965. Her uncle, Keld Fuglsang was chef and owner of Mumm 1991 to 2004…


The courtyard
Our green and flowering courtyard is well-visited and admired in the summer. It is definitely recommended to book a table in due time, as the yard is pretty full every day during the high-season. Up to 10 people can be booked online. Larger groups or events, call us, or send us an e-mail.
Mumm has its own atmosphere and its classic cuisine, preserved over the years. We are often inspired by our guests and colleagues from around the world, but surely you will always find good tender steaks and fresh fish on the menu.
At Mumm, we take pride in making you feel welcome, and that your experience of booking, reception, service - and above all the dining experience - makes sense. If it does, spread it. If not, tell us.
Food and consumption
We are supporting our local suppliers. Not everything can be caught/grown/butchered on Ærø, but in fact, a lot can. We use organic, sustainable and Danish products to the greatest possible extent, and continuously work to minimize our environmental marks. This means focusing on less consumption of CO2-polluting foods, and thus more and better vegetarian and vegan dishes. From our garden – back on the premises – we have a variety of herbs most of the year, which are tasty and colourfull adds to our dishes. In recent years, we have switched to more energy-saving refrigeration facilities, and we focus on waste management.
