Restaurant Hotel Beaumont
Hotel Beaumont
 

The building housing the Beaumont hotel and restaurant dates back to 1912. It is ideally located in the district of Wyck, an area rich in art and striking architecture in the heart of Maastricht. The Beaumont is a member of Maastricht Culinair, an exclusive association of top restaurants in Maastricht.

Harrie Beaumont, whose grandfather founded the hotel/restaurant, expanded and entirely redesigned the interior of the building between 2003 and 2005, in collaboration with world famous British architect David Chipperfield, under the motto 'Tradition in innovation.' The resulting combination of crisp modernity with an old flair, open spaces, and warm hospitality are felt throughout.

Until 2005, Beaumont was renowned for its Alsatian cuisine and wines, but chef Audrey Eussen, assisted by restaurant manager Levy Smit and their predecessors, expanded the menu with a mix of culinary styles and a contemporary interpretation of international and regional Limburg dishes.

The open kitchen restaurant features a great selection of regional and international wines. Harrie Beaumont personally visits the top vineyards in the Alsace and Rhone regions several times a year to ensure the best selection and price/quality relationship.

  • Briefly fry the lamb over high heat and roast them in the oven at 130 degrees Celsius for 12 minutes. After taking them out of the oven, let them rest for 5 minutes.
