The Mexican woman has created the variety and the infinite richness of the history of our cuisine. Likewise, it has been mainly the women who have maintained the tradition, techniques, characteristics and ingredients exclusively from Mexico.During the 19th Century, Mexican women played a profound role in domestic life.

Husband and wife, Thomas and Gitta Maier, opened the Waldhorn in June 1999 and named their restaurant after Gitta's parent's restaurant in Germany. Both Thomas and Gitta are professional chefs: Thomas attended the Culinary Institute of America in New York, and though he grew up on Long Island, both of his parents are German. Gitta actually grew up in Germany, and studied the culinary arts near Stuttgart. They met while working together as chefs in a 4-star restaurant.It's truly a family ordeal at the Waldhorn Restaurant , right down to the name. Since Gitta was the only one of four children to pursue the culinary arts, her parents naturally thought she would one day take over their restaurant.However, after settling in Charlotte, Gitta and Thomas decided to name their new restaurant after her parents' business.

There's a reason at Boneheads we like to say adventure is the spice of life.See, back in the old days when explorers set off in search of new lands, they'd come home with treasures, a variety of nuts and some cool t-shirts. Around 1574, however, Portuguese explorers in search of a short cut to the East stopped at a port in Mozambique to replenish their supplies and check out the nightlife.While they were there, they discovered something that would change their lives forever - a tiny pepper. Piri Piri grew wild in the tiny South African nation, and as the Portuguese people discovered all the fantastic spices and sauces they could create with the pepper, explorers soon became settlers.Maybe it was the flavors that the Piri Piri sauce brought out in the chicken and fish they cooked. Or the spices used with the natural herbs and oil to make marinades, bastes and dipping sauces that to this day make you literally crave more. Or maybe it was the rumored aphrodisiac qualities. (That's probably why they went from being explorers to settlers.)Whatever it is about the Piri Piri pepper, the unique and unforgettable flavor lives here at Boneheads. We invite you to take the adventure and savor the spice of life for yourself.
