Misera

Nicolas Misera is the chef and founder of Michelin-starred Misera in Antwerp. The son of Belgian chef Hans Misera, he grew up surrounded by food and hospitality before training at Hotelschool Ter Duinen and spending four formative years cooking in Provence with chef Wout Bru. Back in Belgium, Nicolas went on to lead the kitchen at Carcasse in Koksijde, where he earned his first Michelin star, before joining Sergio Herman’s AIRRepublic in Cadzand, which also received a Michelin star. In 2022, he opened his own restaurant, Misera, in Antwerp’s Nieuw Zuid. His cooking combines classical French technique with a strong focus on fish, shellfish and exceptional seasonal produce. At Misera, Nicolas works from an open kitchen, creating a daily-changing à la carte menu that reflects his personal, instinctive and rock-‘n-roll approach to gastronomy. Six months after opening, Misera was awarded its first Michelin star. Yasmin Weyn has a background in fashion and design. As maître and co-owner of Restaurant Misera in Antwerp, and co-founder of Bar Misera, Yasmin shapes the experience beyond the plate: from hospitality and music to interiors, vintage finds and art. Her love of brocante and objects with a story gives Misera its unmistakable character.
