De Librije is a restaurant in Zwolle, Netherlands. It is located in the former library, hence the name "De Librije", of a 15th century Dominican abbey. The chef de cuisine is Jonnie Boer and his wife Thérèse Boer-Tausch is hostess and viticulturist. The couple, who both already worked in the restaurant, bought the establishment in 1992. That same year the restaurant received its first Michelin star. The second star followed in 1999, and the restaurant has three stars since 2004.[1] It is currently one of two restaurants in the Netherlands with three Michelin stars, the other being Oud Sluis in Sluis.[2] In 2007 and again in 2008, the restaurant received a score of 19.5 and became Restaurant of the Year in the Dutch edition of Gault Millau.[3]
