//
About // Lennert Wendt
// Owning two large restaurants and working in senior positions in fine dining restaurants and
hotels in Asia and Europe, I am a fan of low hierarchy with a sense of responsibility for
each individual. I like to build teams that
work hand in hand and on an equal footing.
​​
​
​
// I'm living and working in the flow of life, by connecting multidisciplinary artistic fields as a entrepreneur, coach, designer, photographer,
designer, f&b manager and vegan chef. ​
// I'm curious about ideas and I consider my life's mission to bring good things into the world by using
my self-taught strength and strong visual perception
— besides that, I'm still part of the problem.
