Modern Belgian fine dining
Modern Belgian fine dining defines Couvert Couvert, while the kitchen also works in a Modern French, creative register. For diners, that frames the restaurant as a composed lunch or dinner plan rather than a casual meal.
Oysters, skrei, lobster, duck
Oysters with cucumber, slow-steamed skrei with armoricaine sauce, Breton lobster with cauliflower and tarragon, and pan-seared duck breast with cherry reduction show a menu built around defined dishes and sauces.
Sint-Jansbergsesteenweg 171 terrace and private dining
Sint-Jansbergsesteenweg 171 anchors the Heverlee setting, with terrace, private dining, and an open kitchen in the experience. Quiet, formal service suits a conversation-led extended meal.
