The story
Nova serves farm-to-table cooking at Rottekade 31, 2661JN Bergschenhoek, in Rotterdam, and Gault&Millau awarded it 14 points for 2026. The restaurant is a small, considered address for guests who want produce-led cooking without formality.
Chef Guy De Jonghe cooks an understated and refined cuisine for a select group of twenty guests. The purity of the ingredients is the main point of the menu. He works with independent-minded farmers and dedicated producers to source them, which keeps the kitchen closely tied to its growers.
The Michelin Bib Gourmand for 2026 recognises good quality cooking at good value. That combination suits a farm-to-table kitchen built on a short list of carefully chosen suppliers.
The restaurant occupies a reed-thatched building on the Rotte. Guests can arrive by boat or by car, and Gault&Millau singled out the relaxed feeling the setting creates. Outdoor seating is available, and parking is on site.
