Chef Jos Timmer of Restaurant De Kas — Amsterdam's Best Restaurant Michelin 1* And Green Star

ClimateStory Ep.8 Jos Timmer Head Chef & Co-Owner of De Kas, Amsterdam 'Not your typical Michelin Star restaurant' is how De Kas was described to me by another head chef. Generous, open, natural are words that come to mind while dining there. The restaurant itself is stunning and catches you off guard: Massive green-houses, build in the 1920's, and re-built around the turn of the century, house this very special restaurant. In 2018 De Kas was taken over by Jos Timmer and Wim de Beer, who further elevated the cause and cuisine, earning them both a Michelin star and a Green star for sustainability. Jos is a no-nonsense chef who has worked at a string of plant-based restaurants and we had the pleasure of interviewing him for this episode. His fresh approach to sustainability has changed the way I personally see produce. Recently at the supermarket I refused to buy apples because they were imported from South Africa, and the same with many fresh herbs and potatoes (From Israel?). The UK like many countries is a treasure chest of seasonal vegetables and there is no excuse to buy anything other. I'm with you Jos.
