The fine dining venue Vreugd en Rust was located in Voorburg, Netherlands, and held a prestigious Michelin star from 1990 through 1993.
Co-founder and part-owner Henk Savelberg served as head chef and helped establish the company that initially operated the restaurant Seinpost before launching Vreugd en Rust. Following the company's financial failure in 1993, Savelberg was bought out, and Gert Jan Hageman took over as head chef.
Subsequently, Savelberg purchased the premises himself, closing the restaurant in 1995 to undertake renovations. He reopened the site in 1997 under the new concept of a restaurant-hotel named Savelberg.
The establishment is positioned next to the Vreugd en Rust park within Leidschendam-Voorburg.
