19 October 2026 | L’Air du Temps** x Flore**
For the first time, exclusively for a series of 4-hands dinners in which Executive Chef Bas van Kranen shares the kitchen with four chefs who inspire him. This summer and autumn, the kitchen at Restaurant Flore changes shape — not as guest shifts or takeovers, but as conversations between chefs who approach cooking differently, yet recognise something familiar in each other’s work.
San Hoon Degeimbre – L’Air du Temps
At L’Air du Temps in Liernu, much of what is served comes directly from San’s own gardens and greenhouses, with vegetables, herbs, fruits, and flowers defining the kitchen. For one evening, Flore and L’Air du Temps meet through two approaches rooted in produce, precision, and restraint. Guests can expect vegetables at the centre of the menu, with clean flavours, structured fermentation, and dishes focused on balance rather than excess.
Bas admires San’s precise yet natural approach to vegetables and fermentation. One dish that stayed with him is San’s signature vegetable composition with a jus of lacto-fermented vegetables and butter: simple in form, but built with depth, control, and a clear understanding of flavour
Bas Invites
Each dinner begins with a personal connection: a conversation, a shared obsession, a mutual respect for ingredients and the natural world.
What follows is expressed through a one-of-a-kind menu, bringing together the conscious fine dining philosophy of Flore with new perspectives, techniques, and seasonal inspirations from each invited chef.
