Chef Jef Schuur's creative, modern cuisine is based on a constant quest for balance between the flavors and textures of the finest local products. Occupying a former presbytery with minimalist decor, Bij Jef restaurant offers a wonderful gastronomic experience, which the sommelier, recognized by the Michelin guide, excels in food and wine pairings.

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. 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, he cooks local products such as Wadden Sea cockles with Texel lamb bacon, parsley root cream and a jus of puffed celery. 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.
