Spectrum (Amsterdam) Explained
Restaurant Spectrum (formerly Librije's Zusje) is a restaurant located in the Waldorf Astoria hotel in Amsterdam, Netherlands. It is a fine dining restaurant that is awarded two Michelin star since 2015.[1]
Head chef of Spectrum is Sidney Schutte. Schutte, a former chef of "De Librije" and Librije's Zusje in Zwolle, returned to the Netherlands from Hong Kong, where he worked in The Landmark Mandarin Oriental.[2] [3]
On 1 May 2014, this second sister of De Librije opened for business.[4] On 14 September 2014 it was announced that the first sister, Librije's Zusje in Zwolle, would close on 31 December 2014 and that De Librije would take over the location.[5] Contrary to the first "Librije's Zusje", this restaurant is not owned by Jonnie Boer but a kind of franchise.[6]
In October 2018 it was announced that "Librije's Zusje" would become independent and would change its name per 1 January 2019.[7] After a refurbishment, the restaurant reopened as restaurant "Spectrum" on 6 February 2019.[8]
