旅馆 L'Hirondelle

Welcome to Our, a picturesque Ardennes village nestling in peaceful countryside, that has become a beacon for savvy gourmets thanks to Maxime Collard. He has forged his own style back in his homeland, turning an old farmstead into a stylish, fashionable restaurant, whose many windows and mirrors seem to invite the countryside indoors. The establishment offers accommodation in the area to enhance the pleasure of a meal here. Chef Collard steers clear of showing off his extensive technical background, preferring to highlight the essence of a few premium ingredients, local whenever possible. Exam

The Corman brothers have been at the helm of this vintage looking restaurant for over 25 years. In the Absinthe bistro, the accent is on soul-warming fare such as Chimay-flavoured cheese fritters, duck cassoulet and veal stew. We also recommend the Bib Gourmand menu that is more polished, but equally Gallic in leaning. For example, the chef might pair salmon marinated in herbs with different textures of red beetroot, green apple, a gherkin mousse and a few dabs of balsamic vinegar. This delicate feast can be washed down with one of the fine bottles that come from the next-door wine shop. To fi

In this charming inn on the edge of the forest, the Basque Country – where the chef is from – meets fine produce from the Ardennes. The result is delicious, skilfully made dishes, such as piquillo peppers stuffed with cod brandade and fish soup, or lamb confit with piperade. Generous and indulgent cuisine awaits!

Jean Vrijdaghs and Sébastien Hankard have added a youthful buzz to this illustrious restaurant, that had at least one Michelin star from 1963 to 2011. The restaurant and guestrooms have been restored to their former glory thanks to a contemporary makeover. Premium ingredients like Brittany lobster and local game are flanked by veg from the restaurant’s garden, with a flawless attention to detail and an abundance of veteran technique to shine the spotlight on the ingredient. The duo of chefs draws inspiration from purebred classical recipes, to which they add a contemporary twist. A hint of aci

Imagine a romantic dinner on a lush green terrace with a stream and a waterfall softly burbling in the background! The dining room, refurbished in a trendy vein, and the chef’s table of this former 17C mill, also embody this idyllic portrait. Everything revolves around the diner in this establishment which is the epitome of friendly. The talent of Pierre Résimont shines through in a lineup of familiar flavours to which he adds an inventive spin characterised by delicate, generous craftsmanship. Examples include slices of lightly barbecued red tuna, served with a savoury shellfish seasoning and

Fanny and Jérôme bend over backwards to nurture the warm cosy vibe of their establishment, which also offers a few convenient guestrooms. Fanny’s indefectible good cheer and Jérôme’s infectious enthusiasm in his open kitchen set the stage for this culinary performance. The chef shines the spotlight on regional and local producers, with a weakness for veggies. He adds a modern twist to recipes that pay tribute to the region’s traditions and generous character. For example, he might pair slowly cooked lobster with cucumber perfumed in sesame seeds, a buttery sauce of subtle wasabi nuances and a

You might say that Arnaud Lallement grew up at Assiette Champenoise, which was originally opened by his parents. Trained by the best in the business (Roger Vergé, Michel Guérard, Alain Chapel), he cooks high-calibre cuisine – inspired by the classics, generous and above all very tasty – and lets his Breton roots (on his mother's side) shine through. A larger-than-life presence on the restaurant floor, and supported by a warm and dedicated team, Lallement loves to engage with guests and treat them to simply good food. The dishes are accessible and enhanced by memorable sauces; ingredients are t
