The Michelin Guide's review
A dynamic duo with bags of personality, hostess Cindy Borger and chef Jarno Eggen are making their mark on the Dutch culinary landscape. They have revamped the interior of this stately building with a unique contemporary decor, incorporating the chef's own skateboards and colourful artwork. The rear terrace overlooking the vegetable garden and the windmill is simply idyllic. The chef has the freedom here to express his creative vision. The fact that he has the flour for his bread ground in that very mill is a detail that speaks volumes. Indeed, respect for the produce, which is often locally sourced, is at the heart of everything they do here. He has a knack for combining unexpected flavours and exotic seasonings, always striking the perfect balance. The chef cooks locally sourced venison haunch medium-rare and complements it with crispy puff pastry parcels, a refreshing salad of chicory and apple, earthy beetroot with crunchy pumpkin seeds, as well as a robust jus infused with pumpkin seed oil. And let us not forget the perfectly airy chocolate and hazelnut soufflé for dessert – a real treat! Chef Jarno Eggen invites you on a thrilling culinary adventure, where traditional flavours meet innovative techniques.
