A GOURMET PALETTE
Both festive and approachable, our dishes evolve with the seasons. Nature takes center stage on a menu designed like a musical score, where each of the three acts—starter, main course, and dessert—offers five distinct variations. Depending on the daily market, seasonal produce also inspires “suggestions of the moment” to enrich the existing selection. At lunchtime, this culinary vitality is distilled into a weekly three-course menu, perfect for a business lunch or a reunion with friends.
At the helm of the kitchen, Chef Jean-Jacques Danthine brings a personal, contemporary, and festive touch. The signature hand-cut beef tartare is elevated with an optional roasted bone marrow to complete the dish. Another highlight is the waterzooi—a creamy, traditional stew—which the Chef locally reimagines with freshwater fish and crunchy seasonal vegetables.
