His philosophy is to take whatever’s good and fresh and delicious, do as little to it as possible, and share it with people who thinks alike. As inspirations to him comes from a lot of things, for him an amazing dish must have the components of something creamy, crispy, sour, and bitter or something salty. Matthijs builds around the main ingredient either a vegetable or protein and then it’s all about tasting and trying.
