Publiek

Restaurant★ Michelin€€€7.8 km

Publiek is a one-of-a-kind star establishment and its friendly vibe is pivotal to its loft-inspired, cosy bistro interior and its home-from-home ambience. The mix of designer and vintage details courtesy of artist friends lend it a quirky personalised feel. The bar even features its old beer pump! The team’s enthusiasm is contagious, and the talented chef frequently serves the main course himself. Don’t expect posh, luxury ingredients, because Olly Ceulenaere is a staunch champion of little-known veggies and produce. His intelligent recipes hit the spot every time and he is a past master in th

Vrijmoed

Restaurant★★ Michelin€€€€Veg8.5 km

Michaël Vrijmoed is light years from your run-of-the-mill chef. Committed body and soul, he harnesses his phenomenal creativity and extensive technical know-how to the service of fine food, combining pedigree Gallic techniques with traditional fermentation and exotic influences. His stellar reputation is also due to his unabridged passion for vegetables, which comes to the forefront in his vegetarian Purs menu, as he relentlessly coaxes the best out of each ingredient. Should he get his hands on white truffles, he proudly brings them to your table as he plies you with suggestions. You may be t

OAK

Restaurant★ Michelin€€€€7.9 km

Ready for a whirlwind world tour? Marcelo Ballardin’s Italian-Brazilian roots, his globetrotting past and the international cast of the kitchen team are core to the DNA of this eatery. North Sea clams, Asian flavours or wild manioc roots from the Amazon Forest: the menu has clearly been extremely carefully designed and meticulously crafted. Chef Ballardin aims for simplicity, whilst accepting that this goal may entail a certain degree of complexity. He seeks a subtle balance between crisp acidity and velvety comfort. For example, he enhances quickly seared langoustines in a frothy, powerful sa

BORIS & MAURICE

RestaurantBib Gourmand€€7.2 km

It is crystal clear that Boris and Maurice have worked together before (at Bodo). Their friendly neighbourhood eatery with a long counter offers tasty bistro fare with a twist. For example, you may start with deep-fried bites of sole and tartare sauce, followed by a juicy breast of chicken and a masterful Archiduc sauce (mushrooms and cream), finishing with a chocolate mousse. The French wine list adds the final flourish to this appetising banquet.

Le Baan Thaï

RestaurantBib Gourmand€€7.7 km

This grand old edifice exudes a whiff of exoticism that subtly contrasts with the historic character of the Patershol district. The welcoming interior sports high ceilings and works of art, without forgetting a walled courtyard that is bliss in fine weather. The exquisitely plated dishes are packed in generosity and showcase the wide range of flavours of traditional Thai cuisine. The ingredients are fresh and steeped in rich perfumes and aromas with just the right balance of spices. A few examples include tom kha kai with a savvy mix of tangy and spicy notes and velvety massaman curry rich in

Elders

Restaurant€€6.2 km

Urban and exciting, Elders is just the ticket if you fancy sampling modern cuisine in which veggies play the star roles. Tom Pauwelyn reverently respects the seasons, inventing inspired recipes. For example, he exalts cauliflower by preparing it in several ways, including one with an exquisitely subtle Nantua (creamy crayfish) sauce or he celebrates pears with a sabayon of stout beer. Each meal is a treasure trove of discoveries.

Restaurant Melt

Restaurant€€€6.3 km

Jan Audenaert believes in simplicity before all else, mixing vegetables and exotic herbs to compose stunningly presented dishes. His creativity shines through in the detail he lavishes on the side dishes, illustrated by his upside-down pumpkin pie which is served with a gutsy breast of pheasant. Nothing leaves his kitchen that hasn’t been endlessly pondered and puzzled over. We recommend his lunchtime menus. The minimalist interior of this restored presbytery suits this culinary offering down to a T!

Nonam

Restaurant€€€7.5 km

Nestled in the heart of Ghent's Patershol neighbourhood, Nonam has an authentic and cosy ambience with a touch of vintage charm. After stretching out in one of the luxurious guestrooms, pop into the the restaurant, where the set menu presents a playful take on fusion cuisine. The chef transforms his grandmother's rice pudding recipe, for instance, with exciting textures of apricot and a koji-based ice cream. Or he boldly combines beetroot, blue cheese and umeboshi. The selection of fine wines, by the bottle and by the glass, has plenty of gems in store.
