Cuchara

★★ Michelin€€€€Creative, Modern Cuisine

Music and nature enjoy guest-star status at Cuchara. The former adds a relaxed lounge mood, while the latter, embodied by a wood- and leather-rich interior, paints a distinctive trendy portrait. A seven-metre-long glass tree sculpture hanging from the ceiling seems to float over the dining room! Cuchara is mysterious, confidential and quirky, and Jan Tournier gets a kick out of surprising diners. His punchy, no-holds barred cuisine is offbeat and individual and he manages to astound with just a few ingredients and lashings of creativity, often tinged with Asian notes. Right from the appetisers

Cocotte

€€€Modern French, Classic French

Jan Mangelschots has clearly pondered and puzzled over every detail of the delightful Cocotte from the Art deco stained-glass, natural light and soothing colour scheme to its swish, uncluttered vibe and art-directed plating. Consummate yet subtle execution and intense sauces depict both the classical à la carte and the set menus. The chef has a flair for adding a sophisticated spin to a terrine of asparagus and squid served with a chilled asparagus soup and cream of smoked eel. Everything, from the food to the service, is bang-on confident and brimming in personality.
