Merlet — Restaurant in Schoorl

Since 1984 the Van Bourgonje family has cherished Restaurant Hotel Merlet, which has become a household name for its regulars. In 2023 Merlet received its 25th Michelin star in a row, an impressive track record for a restaurant in a dune village in North Holland. Chef Marco Helsloot combines spicy flavours with subtle Asian accents and works with premium local ingredients such as Wadden Sea shrimps and Texel lamb. The wine list is Merlet's real secret: no fewer than 60 wines by the glass, many of them via Coravin, including older vintages at remarkably reasonable prices for the Netherlands.
