"Chef Jurgen van der Zalm and his team can admire the second MICHELIN Star to be displayed at the entrance to their restaurant Vinkeles. This talented chef, once the right-hand man for Dennis Kuipers, is now forging his own furrow while remaining faithful to a certain idea of traditional gastronomy. At Vinkeles (in Amsterdam), this is immediately recognized in his attention to the sauces, although he is not afraid of adding some modern twists to signal his creativity. Whether it is creating an entirely vegetarian menu or a dish celebrating the more luxury ingredients, Jurgen van der Zalm never fails to propose something to grab the attention, and always delivered with classic finesse." - Le Guide MICHELIN
