• Cuchara★★ Michelin 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.

• La Belle★ Michelin Peter Vangenechten has made the peaceful country village of Bel a landmark of Belgium’s fine dining landscape.

Bare timbers support the tall roof, while the elegant interior paints a cosy picture. The idyllic scene is set for chef Vangenechten to work his magic on regional produce, adding international notes, creative side dishes and a playful mixture of textures that enhances and underscores the main ingredient. He savvily blends classic and international in13.8km
• Cocotte 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.8.8km
• Bouffard Bouffard has two different dining spaces to suit different moods: a snug lounge area at the front and a more vibrant room adorned with colourful artworks. Thomas Dockx is very selective when it comes to his ingredients, and he takes a less-is-more approach to preparing them. Eschewing any unnecessary frills, he allows the natural flavours to shine through with the help of robust sauces. In one of his exuberant dishes, he combines golden-brown pan-fried scallops, tender pork cheek and a creamed cheek broth. This chef understands how to create a well-rounded set menu that keeps you engaged from 10.7km

• De Cuylhoeve De Cuylhoeve enjoys a truly magical setting in the heart of the Campine Forest, providing the perfect stage for this romantic restaurant.

• De Lindehoeve Pallieter Vaes has breathed a new lease of life into this country hostelry, whose classical period details and fixtures have been retained, adding to the cachet and character of this airy establishment. The chef, who boasts an enviable CV, is manifestly a fan of top-notch produce. When he works with scallops, he may give them a crispy crust, which is then offset by side dishes like squash, ginger, a sea vegetable and a lovage-perfumed beurre blanc. You can expect a culinary lineup packed in gutsy flavours and delicacy. The à la carte is more traditional than the set menu, but both hit the spot19.7km
