How can a – with all due respect – simple sous chef put several million euros on the table to buy over ‘Hof van Cleve’? For example, we wondered earlier this week after Peter Goossens (58) announced that he would leave his three-star temple in Kruishoutem, East Flanders, to his subject Floris Van Der Veken (34). And behold: it has now leaked that the deal is not actually finalized yet, but only “a letter of intent has been signed” for the time being. When will the takeover be completed? And will Goossens still partly remain on board?
