- La Botte★ Michelin Peppe, the chef, and Gaspare, sommelier, are writing a new chapter of a culinary story that the Giacomazza family has been carefully composing for decades. Peppe and Gaspare are the second generation and they continue to celebrate Sicily courtesy of a refined, often original score that rolls out generous, 100% authentic flavours of fabulous delicacy.Italy’s rich ingredients are a secret for no one. Chef Peppe nonetheless manages to surprise by the quality of his produce, like gambero rosso, semi-cooked in a creamy risotto crafted with buffalo milk butter, or a gutsy bisque of shrimp heads enha9.9km
- JER★ Michelin Good food has no need of fancy fussy frills, as Wim Schildermans so masterfully illustrates. In a tastefully restored manor house that has lost none of its period charm, this creative maestro rolls out his “Just Eat Right” concept. First of all, he sources top-drawer, preferably local ingredients, and then deploys his consummate skill and talent. Chef Schildermans cooks boldly and has no qualms about surprising diners, illustrated by fillet of venison, served rare and underscored by a big-boned gravy enhanced with delicate and subtly vibrant Timut pepper. This is paired with marinated red beet11.7km
- Ogst★ Michelin Ogst is the epitome of charming. A natural, Scandinavian-inspired decor sets the warm, casual scene in which you instantly feel at home. Sébastien Wygaerts bowls us over with fresh produce and attention to detail, depicted by elegant plating, cleverly devised recipes and gutsy flavours. The chef fashions distinctive dishes thanks to fresh and acidic nuances, including the occasional exotic tang and doesn’t hesitate to stray from well-trodden culinary paths as he tries out original recipes. Examples include tartare of beef with finely diced watermelon, a fresh, acidic emulsion, oil of capers an12.1km
- De Kristalijn★ Michelin De Kristalijn cannot fail but catch the eye. The modern edifice in which it is housed seems to hover over the surrounding golf course. Floor-to-ceiling windows command knockout views, while trendy furnishings and designer lighting underscore the establishment’s stylish character. Seasoned chef Koen Somers weaves his magic in the entirely open-plan kitchen as he crafts food depicted by purebred technique and generous ingredients. The chef harnesses his creative streak in a painstaking and precise approach to cooking. Premium seabass is cooked in its skin for crispiness and flanked with a medley12.5km
- Slagmolen★★ Michelin The charm of this authentic watermill, whose machinery is visible inside, is flanked by a stylish modern “barn”, whose huge windows overlook the stunning countryside. In addition to a peaceful terrace, the establishment boasts four deluxe rooms to prolong the evening in style. This highly distinctive portrait is pursued in the culinary fusion of old and new that also depicts the food. The styles of dad, Bert, and Giel, his son, have been merged and are gathering momentum. Family favourites such as pheasant in a cognac sauce and a dame blanche dessert (with vanilla ice cream prepared on the spo15.1km
- Modest★ Michelin Sander Spreeuwers acquired the nickname Modest at hospitality school. Modest also means “unpretentious” which is an equally fitting description of this chef. The culinary score illustrates this ethos and is free of fussy frills or showy presentations, but steeped in Sander’s subtle, sensitive personality. A respect for traditional French fare, lashings of character and a weakness for Asian flavours set the scene for your meal.How about juicy North Sea seabass with a kefir-flavoured beurre blanc that strikes a balance between powerful and fresh acidic notes? Chef Spreeuwers pursues this gutsy q14.0km
- MoonstoneBib An illuminated moon sculpture dominates the grey colour scheme, hence the name of this eatery housed in Hotel Stiemerheide, which also commands a pretty view of the golf course. Chef Sander Roos celebrates premium produce in recipes that combine up-to-date, yet familiar flavours. His forthright, wholesome cooking is rich, pure and expressive: gravlax of salmon or juicy cockerel in a tarragon-flavoured poultry stock. The set menu is a must, but the à la carte lineup is also extremely sensibly priced. Check out the all-inclusive Sunday package (with a meal and accommodation)!11.4km
- Feast With Feast, Donaat and Guy have created a vintage-style haven where you come to relax and enjoy yourself. The presence of record players makes it clear that music is central to the experience here and you can even customise the background music with your own records. The menu features a variety of international dishes presented in tapas-sized portions. Think smörrebröd topped with scallops and kohlrabi, or oven-baked leek with a satay sauce – playful and packed with flavour, without a hint of pretentiousness. With a wide range of natural wines and well-known favourites, the wine list has plent8.4km
- The Thrill Hunting trophies on the walls, sheepskins on the chairs and a huge fireplace-grill in the centre: the rustic stage is set for the friendly, buzzy Thrill in Genk. The extensive menu will make your tastebuds drool, all the more so as you can be safe in the knowledge that Rik Vandersanden is a high-flying craftsman. His ravioli of woodpigeon or his chuck Black Angus, masterfully grilled to rare on the BBQ, demonstrate his talent and generosity. Heaven for lovers of authentic, down to earth flavours.9.3km
