De Beukenhof was a hotel-restaurant located in Oegstgeest, Netherlands. It was a former fine dining restaurant that was awarded one or two Michelin stars since 1957 up to 1995. The restaurant closed in 2014, due to bankruptcy.[3]
Head chef in the time of the Michelin stars was Koos van Fulpen.[4] He retired in 1995.[5]
In 1991, the opening of an art exhibition caused a huge turn out of the police. The watercolours were made by the biologist-artist Janneke Brinkman-Salentijn. As wife of politician Elco Brinkman, the opening attracted politicians like Ruud Lubbers, Koos Andriessen and Hans van Mierlo.[6]
In 1997, the first official presentation of the new harvest of caviar was celebrated in the restaurant. Importer J. Toet organized this event.[7]
