Kommilfoo

€€€

Olivier de Vinck de Winnezeele is a self-taught chef. It all started with a student job to pay for his studies, which soon turned into a fully-fledged passion for cooking. He then learned the ropes in top houses, mainly in Spain, before founding Kommilfoo in 1998 with Inge, your hostess. The spacious interior is depicted by an elegant peaceful vibe. A blue-chip establishment in Antwerp’s trendy Zuid district and the guarantee of outstanding produce. Creative and talented, Vinck de Winnezeele has a knack for adding a new spin to recipes, courtesy of his work on structure and his surprisingly de

Hertog Jan at Botanic

Creative, Asian Influences · ★★ Michelin

€€€€

A meal by Gert De Mangeleer and sommelier Joachim Bouden is in a class of its own, starting with the swish Botanic Sanctuary Hotel, which immerses you in a world unlike any other. Concrete and muted shades of grey set the scene in the intimate restaurant which boasts a stunning architectural backdrop. In a bid to maintain the element of surprise, the establishment asks guests not to post photos on social media, so we won’t dwell on the amazing chef’s table where diners are invited to admire his work first hand either. Suffice it to say that chef De Mangeleer’s distinctive signature and love af

Nebo

Contemporary, Modern French · ★ Michelin

Nebo, which means ‘sky’ in Croatian, is a discreet tribute to the 1-star Michelin restaurant of Dimitri de Koninck’s father, La Luna. In his own swish establishment in the hip Nieuw Zuid district, youthful Dimitri, demonstrates that he learned the ropes with the best. He enjoys pampering his guests with an entirely à la carte menu, flanked by enticing suggestions. The wine list bear witness to the passion for oenology of Michelle, a master sommelier. Connoisseurs of first-class ingredients, such as Anjou pigeon and wild seabass, will be in culinary heaven. The chef faithfully upholds classical

€€€

Nicolas Misera’s motto, “An artist’s life”, was far from a random choice, as you will quickly realise when you enter this trendy eatery in buzzy Nieuw Zuid. Art forms the backbone of the establishment which is a stylish blend of purity and design. An eye-catching open kitchen and counter dominate the interior, offering an intriguing insight into the chef’s virtuosity. His personal take on classical recipes, with a weakness for fish and shellfish, is founded on consummate talent. Knockout sauces, knife-edged precision and an eclectic slant set the fascinating scene between the city and the Nort

Fine Fleur

Serenity and contemporary class set the scene at Fine Fleur, one of the first-class eateries that has found refuge in the swanky Botanic Sanctuary Hotel. Admire the kitchen team at work behind smoked glass as you are pampered by the enthusiastic youthful front-of-house team. Nothing is left to chance from the inspired wine-food pairings to the chefs who pop out to present their handiwork. We warrant you will fall under the spell of Fine Fleur and the delicate fine dining vision of Jacob Jan Boerma and Thomas Diepersloot. Exceptional ingredients are flanked by gutsy sauces, a dash of Dutch dari

Vegan, Farm to table · Bib

€€

Karen Shu's welcoming neighbourhood eatery sports a trendy urban vibe reminiscent of New York City – our favourite spot is a seat at the counter, overlooking the kitchen. Her plant-based, invariably vegan, ideal for sharing cuisine is bang in tune with the times: crisp, light and bursting with exciting flavours. She is a fan of spices and umami, which she skilfully balances with herbs and acidic notes. Take the feta toast, for example, a popular choice from the à la carte lineup: creamy vegan feta, a mildly spicy tomato salsa and a scattering of different herbs for extra whoomph, served on toa

't Fornuis

french · ★ Michelin

€€€€

’t Fornuis is a restaurant of which there are few and far between nowadays. The interior of the handsome 17C townhouse is rustic and authentic and the polished service is similarly old school, as dishes are theatrically presented at the table beneath a cloche in a charming nod to the establishment’s classical heritage. Chef Johan Segers has held a Michelin star since 1986, and his enthusiasm has not waned an iota. His passion for exceptional produce and traditional fare shines through when he describes dishes to diners. He also works with ingredients that are rarely found today, such as pig’s

The Butcher's son

Traditional Cuisine, Meats and Grills · ★ Michelin

The industrial loft vibe of the hip, urban Butcher’s son eatery blends seamlessly into De Koninck brewery, in which it is located. The premises are also home to a bakery, a chocolate artisan and to the De Laet & Van Haver butcher’s shop, the main suppliers of Bert Jan Michielsen (who worked there when he was young). True to his heritage, chef Michielsen’s open kitchen showcases his ongoing passion for red meat, while also taking family favourites to a whole new level thanks to lashings of talent, sprinkled with modern twists. He avows a weakness for surf-turf dishes, like a ballotine of pig’s
