JEROEN & MARLEEN

Jeroen & Marleen

We, Marleen and Jeroen Brouwer, have gained years of experience as chefs in renowned Michelin-starred restaurants both domestically and internationally. In 2016, we became the owners of Restaurant & Hotel De Loohoeve in Schoonloo, Drenthe. There, we worked with passion, which was rewarded with various accolades and ultimately a Michelin star.

After several successful years, we decided to sell the business to fully focus on our culinary ambitions. In February 2022, we opened Restaurant Noor, located in the beautiful Theresiakapel in Groningen. Noor is a cosmopolitan and contemporary restaurant where we bring our vision of gastronomy to life.

At Noor, everything revolves around a continuously evolving experience, tailored to the seasons. We work with Dutch products, combining them with global techniques and spices. Our style is characterized by the use of citrus and fresh acids. We primarily serve fish, shellfish, crustaceans, vegetables, and occasionally a bit of (game) meat.

Restaurant

In our restaurant, we serve a set menu: Menu Noor. This menu is a reflection of everything we have built together over the past years. With great love, creativity, and craftsmanship, we — Jeroen, Marleen, and our dedicated team — have carefully crafted every course.

At Noor, everything revolves around pure flavors, the highest quality ingredients, and a culinary experience you won’t find anywhere else. We combine influences from around the world with as many Dutch products as possible. This results in a versatile palette, firmly rooted in the French cuisine as its foundation.

We warmly invite you to join us on this culinary journey.

Beverages
The beverage program follows a similar philosophy. Many of the non-alcoholic options are prepared in-house with locally sourced ingredients, but credit is also given to fine wines and spirits from around the world, drawing inspiration from different countries and cultures.

Chef’s Table
This unique kitchen table can accommodate up to 8 people who have a direct view of our kitchen and the chefs. Here, guests can watch what goes on behind the scenes in the kitchen. As they watch the cooks prepare the food, they can ask them culinary questions and ask about their kitchen secrets. Click here for more information.
