Librije's Zusje (translated as Librije's little sister) was an upscale dining establishment located in Zwolle, Netherlands. It received its first Michelin star in 2009 and retained this distinction until 2011, after which it was elevated to two stars from 2012 through 2014.
The restaurant was owned by Jonnie and Thérèse Boer and formed part of the culinary collective associated with De Librije. Situated in a former women's correctional facility, the venue shared its location with Librije's Hotel and Librije's Atelier, which serves as a culinary and wine education center.
Initially, the kitchen was led by head chef Sidney Schutte. Following his exit in 2009, Alwin Leemhuis assumed the role until 2012, when Maik Kuijpers succeeded him.
On 1 May 2014, a second branch of Librije's Zusje was launched in Amsterdam inside the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. It was later declared that the Zwolle site would cease operations on 31 December 2014, with De Librije taking over the former premises.
