This is Luc Bellings’ honest assessment of the new Hof van Cleve: “I see the same pattern emerging a little too often”

Hof van Cleve has a new chef. From now on, Floris Van Der Veken will be the successor to the legendary three-star chef Peter Goossens, stirring the pots on his own account. We visited with our regular taster Luc Bellings during the very first service: “The new chef is clearly still playing it safe a little too much.” Is the Hof van Cleve ready for a new star? And what score does Bellings give?
