HIS JOURNEY
Sergio Herman (1970) inherited his love for cooking from his father. They worked together for years at ‘Oud Sluis’, before Sergio took over the restaurant in 1990. Oud Sluis earned three Michelin stars, the highest ranking of 20/20 by Gault Millau, and ranked no. 17 in San Pellegrino’s 50 Best list. After the success of Oud Sluis, Sergio Herman opened Pure C (2 Michelin stars), The Jane (2 Michelin stars), Airrepublic (1 Michelin star), and Le Pristine Antwerp (1 Michelin star).

Do everything with passion and your full attention. Consider, assess, and evaluate every detail. Execute, adjusting where necessary. Be unique. This is the essence of Sergio.
AMBASSADOR
Sergio will be an ambassador for Zeeland’s culinary heritage as long as he lives. It’s a role he fulfils with verve and will always promote, regardless of his audience. He derives just as much pleasure from doing a workshop with a class of schoolchildren as from mingling with a line-up of international gastronomic celebrities. He always remains his humble self.
