Kenny – Chef de Cuisine
Meet Kenny, our Chef.
Kenny has been part of the Latour team for over five years and since August 2024 our Chef de Cuisine.

Beau – Assistant Restaurant Manager
Meet Beau, our Assistant Restaurant Manager.
At Restaurant Latour, creating special memories is at the heart of everything we do, something Beau, our Assistant Restaurant Manager, wholeheartedly agrees with.
“What matters most to me, and what truly gives me energy, is offering our guests an experience from start to finish — one that ends with a smile on their faces.
But just as important is the collaboration between the kitchen and service team. By inspiring each other and exchanging ideas, we raise the bar together. Right now, we’re working on tea pairings to accompany the dishes. It’s incredibly exciting to taste the dishes alongside the kitchen and then select a tea that complements them best, testing and comparing to find the perfect match.”
Frank – Kitchen Chef
Meet Frank, our Kitchen Chef.
My name is Frank van Delft, Chef de Cuisine at Restaurant Latour.
Cooking is my passion, a craft filled with emotion, challenges, and joy. But in the end, what matters most is coming to work with a smile.
I have a deep love for pure, honest flavours and locally sourced ingredients. Traveling and spending time outdoors are great sources of inspiration for me, and I bring those experiences into my dishes.
My goal is to take Latour to the next level together with the team, united by ambition and creativity.
Mariëlle – Trainee
Meet Mariëlle, our Trainee.
My name is Mariëlle de Ruyter, and I’m a trainee at Restaurant Latour.
What’s important to me is striving for perfection every single day. Working consistently at a very high level challenges and inspires me. I really enjoy the creativity it takes to truly stand out as a restaurant.
Recently, I’ve taken on a new challenge: working with the cheese trolley. What makes it special is that we work exclusively with Dutch cheeses. By getting to know these cheeses well and presenting them at the table, we can continue to surprise our guests and contribute to an unforgettable dining experience.
Lieke – Pastry Chef
Meet Lieke, our Pastry Chef.

“I’ve been working at Latour as a pastry chef for just over a year now. I have a strong interest in learning cooking techniques beyond pastry, but also in deepening my knowledge of pastry in fine dining. What I find most important is bringing joy to our guests at the end of their dinner — with beautiful desserts and surprising friandises!”
