Hertog Jan Restaurant Group

Zedelgem, on the night of Friday, 21 December 2018, at 1.34 am; for the very last time, Gert De Mangeleer and Joachim Boudens say good-bye to the guests of Hertog Jan***. The friends have worked side by side for fifteen years to reach the pinnacle of gastronomy. First in the form of a casual wine brasserie and later as a fine dining restaurant with close ties to nature. Gert and Joachim have proudly displayed three Michelin stars on the facade of their renovated barn building ever since 2011, and theyve also achieved an Olympic score of 19/20 with Gault & Millau. Driven by their clear and creative vision, Hertog Jan*** made it among the very select group of the Worlds 50 Best Restaurants and Gert received the European Chef of the Year award in 2014. In the course of their business partnership, Gert and Joachim havent just had a life of successes, great experiences and fantastic achievements. It hasnt been a bed of roses and they have also endured just as many moments of exhaustion...
