At Hendrik Dierendonck’s establishment, the meat comes straight from the butchers to the plate – in fact, Carcasse is literally the extension of his butcher’s shop in Saint Idesbald.

What a pity we don’t live down the road from this amusing "box"! “Taste the world, Share the food” is their baseline!

Julia’s simple, generous cooking is heaven for foodies.
