About us
What I’ve been wanting to tell you…
Summer is here… and with it comes that desire to enjoy life, to slow down a little, to share beautiful moments around a table, over a drink, with a smile.
Spring has already given us some wonderful memories. We were lucky enough to host several events—First Communion celebrations for our clients, private moments filled with emotion, and of course our Food & Music event, which kicked off summer just the way we like it: with music, good cheer, and beautiful dishes.
For the past few months, you’ve also been seeing me more often in the dining room. I’m leaving the kitchen more and more in the hands of Kirsten and Femke, while remaining deeply involved in every menu, every recipe, every explanation, and every detail. I share my ideas, my tastes, and my inspirations with them, and they bring them to life with talent and passion.
And I have to admit: I really love this new rhythm. Being closer to you, my guests, taking a little more time to chat, explaining a dish, recommending a wine, sharing a story… it does me a world of good.
Being an owner-chef is about so much more than just cooking. It’s about designing menus, placing orders, answering emails, organizing events, meeting with suppliers, tasting, choosing, thinking things through, starting over… and sometimes running all over the place. So these moments in the dining room, with you, are precious.
And since we’re on the subject of taste, let’s also talk about wine. Little by little, I’d like to introduce you to more Italian wines—ones I’ve had the chance to taste directly at our suppliers’ wineries. These are wines with a story, a region, a family, and a landscape behind every bottle. They’re wines that speak to me, and I want to share them with you at the table.
July, August, and September will therefore be all about summer, sharing, wonderful discoveries, and this simple desire: to welcome you with sincerity, generosity, and always a touch of improvisation.
Thank you for being here, thank you for following us, thank you for being part of this wonderful adventure.
