  • May 2009 - Dec 2010

  R’o’zemarijn is a French orientated restaurant in the old centre of Maastricht. In its short existing R’o’zemarijn is highly recommended in several restaurant guides such as Gault Millau (13points) Lekker and Guide Michelin. I was responsible for all the day to day operations. Leading a team of 3 FTE and several part time waiters, training and coaching them. In service I provided our guests with wine/food pairing suggestions and also making sure that everything was running smoothly. As a sommelier I was also responsible for the wine arrangements, wine cellar en wine list. I made a new well-balanced wine list with great variety and good price range without losing track of the finances. In this first period of the newly opened restaurant I used my previously made network of wine importers and wine merchants and maintained these contacts. I organized several tasting dinners in cooperation with one of my wine importers. De Volkskrant (a Dutch national newspaper) wrote in a review ‘the very young sommelier has excellent wine knowledge and brings his explanation just as easy in English.’ Show less
