"Ralf Berendsen aims to offer a global experience, starting with the tree-lined drive to this classy modern edifice, flanked by an opulent terrace, in which every detail has been puzzled and preened over! Ralf, a true perfectionist, now makes his entrance. He spices up familiar flavours with delicate nuances and subtle international produce. His cooking is complex but never overly complicated or fussy. The fascinating balance of these powerful flavours demonstrates the full gamut of this high-flying chef’s talent, as do his sauces."  - MICHELIN Guide ©

"This terraced castle is full of character and historical charm. From the herringbone parquet flooring to the impressive chandeliers, this place is a classic restaurant at heart. The views over the Baroque gardens and the Jeker Valley are simply stunning! With a feel for the zeitgeist, Robert Levels breathes new life into French classics. Vegetables are harvested from his own garden and the sauces are always outstanding. Chef Levels tempers the intense flavours of classical cuisine with exciting exotic touches, giving vegetables the attention they deserve and focusing on palatability. A castle fairy tale par excellence!"  - MICHELIN Guide ©

"De Leuf is a really appealing family business run by hostess Sandra van de Bunt, her daughter Michelle and son Robin, who is in charge in the kitchen. He is a creative chef inspired by his travels around Asia and the classic finesse imparted by his late father, Paul. As soon as you enter, the chefs at the counter where diners are seated prepare some appetisers for you. Local produce and Asian flavours elevate each other. This cuisine is technically accomplished, sophisticated and inspired. This half-timbered farmhouse (1769) is a paragon of contemporary class and character."

"Hans van Wolde has reinvented himself. For years the face of Beluga, he is making a fresh start at Brut172. He has set up shop in the heart of the quiet Limburg countryside, having transformed a farmstead into an architectural gem. The upscale modern design is extraordinary. This is art rather than architecture! Hans van Wolde takes you into his world, where you momentarily lose track of time. Ingredients of exceptional quality and intensely flavoured sauces characterise the dishes. Then there is the selection of global wines and a range of delicious juices for alcohol-free pairings… Brut172 makes for a first-class dining experience!"
