Pastry chef M/W- Relaîs Châteaux Bij Jef

BE WELCOME IN OUR PASTRY WORLD!

An hour and a half from Amsterdam, twenty minutes by boat from Den Helder — between the land and the sea — lies Texel, an island in the Frisian archipelago in the Netherlands.
It is where chef Jef Schuur, hand in hand with his wife Nadine Mögling, has chosen to open a Michelinstarred restaurant and several beautiful modern suites in what was once a presbytery.

With the changing tides, chef Jef cooks with local products. Nadine, a sommelier, is an expert in European wines and uses her extensive knowledge of organic and natural wines to create subtle and unique pairings to compliment the cuisine's harmonious contrasts of tastes and textures.

We are proud to be one of the 580 members of Relais & Châteaux, an association of worldwide independent hotel and restaurant owners.

We offer our guests an unique, luxury experience in one of our 12 suites in combination with our gastronomic menu in the restaurant.
