Luxembourg's culinary scene is facing another loss as chef Thomas Murer announces the upcoming closure of his restaurant "An Der Villa" in Steinfort.

Thomas Murer, a semi-finalist from Series 7 of Top Chef France, will serve his final dishes at his restaurant "An Der Villa" in Steinfort on 22 December.

The closure of "An Der Villa" marks another significant shift in Luxembourg's gastronomic scene, following the announced closure of the Michelin-starred Eden Rose restaurant and the upcoming relocation of the entire team from La Distillerie to the new Fields restaurant. On Thursday evening, Emeline and Thomas Murer, the restaurant's managers, announced their decision to close on social media, stating they would welcome their last customers on 22 December 2024.

In their statement, the Murers expressed gratitude to their customers "for having been part of this culinary adventure" and thanked their team for "six unforgettable years and for having contributed so passionately to making this project a reality."

Thomas Murer, originally from Alsace, opened "An Der Villa" in Steinfort in 2018.
