Sébastien Brela is a genuine foodie. His passion for fine ingredients is obvious from your first glance at the menu. Distinctive flavours play a central role, while indulgent sauces add a punchy edge. Unexpected associations and textures surprise and intrigue. Casserole of lovingly and slowly braised pork cheeks or a juicy fillet of poultry underscored by big-boned pimento peppers, curry and Mediterranean veggies: the chef’s secret resides in his talent for blending consummate technique with crisp flavours. The fixed-price and excellent lunchtime menus demonstrate that it is possible to be a g

Her grandparents were hatmakers (hence the name), but Sophie’s love was cooking, a passion she now shares with her son Thomas. In a tastefully refurbished brick townhouse, the focus is on enhancing local produce courtesy of familiar flavours and elegant plating. For example, if rabbit is on the menu, it may be in a stew, or rolled and stuffed with meat and prunes, or as mashed potatoes drizzled with a creamy, mustard-spiked rabbit gravy. Rich gutsy sauces are something of the house hallmark. This hatmakers is a splendid marriage of heritage, know-how and down-to-earth, family hospitality.

Martin Evrard has developed close ties with the land, the countryside and local producers.

Hip and elegant, as well as warm: the decor of this street corner edifice is the picture of good taste, and the terraces are taken by storm come summertime.

The à la carte lineup is more classical than the set menu with choices, but equally emblematic of Norga’s distinc
