OUR CUISINE
Our Chef elevates classic Belgian dishes with a contemporary touch. Each plate reflects a delicate balance between tradition and innovation, offering a refined and indulgent culinary experience.
Among the must-tries, the gray shrimp croquettes reveal the full depth of their flavors, while the Waterzoï poussin, slow-cooked and served with tender vegetables, delights with its subtle seasoning.
Every day, the Chef uses fresh herbs harvested from the hotel’s rooftop garden to enhance the dishes’ flavors. Special attention is also given to vegetarian options, ensuring that every guest is welcomed with the same level of care and excellence.
The experience is further enhanced by attentive and warm service, attentive to your preferences, making each visit an exceptional moment.
