• La FermetteBib Sarah Bohet and Michaël Vancraeynest are at the head of this authentic Ardennes stone farmhouse, where an open fire burns in the hearth come wintertime. To make the most of the experience, ask for a table in the farm’s historic section, although the more recent extension is brighter. The culinary score unveils a savvy blend of know-how and funky touches. Succulent red mullet might be paired with morel and vin jaune cream, while the chef consummately grills rib steaks on an open log fire, which are then served with a velvety béarnaise sauce. This exuberant lineup is further enhanced by Sarah’s 14.3km

Weather permitting, make a beeline for the covered terrace in the garden. The establishment’s youthful chefs have opted for a forthright bistronomic slant with dishes to suit today’s palates. The sweetbread is juicy and crispy at the same time, while curly kale, bacon, onions and a bearnaise sauce laced in tarragon are among the sides you will find in autumn. LUMA makes no bones about scrupulously respecting the seasons in its menus.14.8km
