De Echoput is a member and one of the founding fathers of Alliance Gastronomique Néerlandaise [2] [3]
The restaurant's first owner and head chef was Jaap Klosse, who made full use of the location on the edge of the Royal Game Reserve Het Loo. [4] [5] Considered a "delightful restaurant" [6] and one of the "best restaurants" [7] in the Netherlands, it was named after an "echoing well" where people traveling by obtained water for their horses. The building has the appearance of a hunting lodge and the restaurant specializes in seasonal game dishes, such as venison, boar and fowl. [7] Theus de Kok has led the kitchen since 1974, first as head chef, later as executive chef-maitre. [8] [9] [10] In June 2010, Leendert Scholtus took over the kitchen from Chiel Dohmen. [11] In February 2014, Scholtus announced that he would leave De Echoput to start his own restaurant. [12] His successor will be Peter Paul van den Breemen, former owner and head chef of Het Jachthuis Hoog Soeren, who starts at 1 April. [13]
The original restaurant was closed and demolished in 2004. Peter Klosse, son of the founder and owner of the complex since 1985, replaced it with a hotel and restaurant. They celebrated the reopening by winning the International Restaurant Awards category Best New Restaurant of the Year/Luxury Restaurant. [14] [15]
