Our story

About Krijt

The balcony of the mansion
The mansionHoofdstraat 175
The house

A stately mansion, a new kitchen

On the edge of Apeldoorn's centre, with the Veluwe as its immediate surroundings, stands the mansion Krijt calls home. High ceilings, a conservatory full of light and, beneath the house, a vaulted cellar where our wines rest.

In that setting we cook a kitchen that begins close by and reaches far: cosmopolitan, with acidity and spice as its signature.

The strength of Krijt

Where talent grows

Krijt grew out of the vision of three-star chef Jacob Jan Boerma: a restaurant where talent is given the room to grow. Day-to-day leadership is in the hands of Edwin and Michèle Franken-van de Water, who together with co-owners Kim Veldman and Jacob Jan Boerma share their knowledge and passion with a new generation. Their shared background at the former three-star restaurant De Leest in Vaassen is the foundation on which craftsmanship is passed on, creativity is sparked and young people show what they are capable of.

Day-to-day leadership

Edwin & Michèle
Franken-van de Water

Edwin leads the kitchen, Michèle the house and the cellar. Together they set the course: a kitchen with a signature of its own, and hospitality that feels self-evident.

They learned their craft at the former three-star restaurant De Leest in Vaassen. Together with co-owners Kim Veldman and Jacob Jan Boerma, they now pass that craftsmanship on to a new generation.

Craftsmanship is passed on,
creativity is sparked.
