De Stenen Tafel is a restaurant in Borculo, in the Netherlands. It is a fine dining restaurant that was awarded one Michelin star in 1999 and retained that rating until 2011.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
French restaurant guide Gault Millau did not mention the restaurant or its sister bistro De Olliemölle.[9]
The head chef of De Stenen Tafel is Raymond Prinsen,[10] who took over in 1994.[11]
Prinsen closed the restaurant in April 2011, due to lack of motivation.[12] He went on with his Bib Gourmand bistro De Olliemölle and started developing other plans, like a cookery school.[13] Prinsen did not enjoy his restaurant-free period and announced the return of the restaurant in April 2012. Although with a different concept, just open two days a week and 20 couverts, he has promised to try to get his star back.[14] The restaurant, nicknamed "De Stenen Tafel 2.0", reopened on 14 September 2012.[15]
Raymond Prinsen and his wife Gea Meppelink bought the watermill in 2007. The local municipality Berkelland was in financial difficulties and the sale solved a bit of their problems. For Prinsen and Meppelink, this means that they not only own the restaurant, but also the building in which they have heavily invested.[16]
In 2009, Gault Millau awarded the restaurant the Wine Award for the quality of its wine list.[17]
