This characterful farmstead, just a hop from the centre of Saint Truiden, is the epitome of warm and friendly. Chef Raf truly loves his work, as his huge smile reveals when you enter the property. The score keeps pace with the seasons and champions Flemish traditions, tweaked with subtle contemporary notes. An example: fork-tender breast of duckling with legs grilled on the barbecue, flanked by asparagus, frothy potato mousseline and a knockout gravy spiked with tarragon. Generosity and authenticity are the name of the game, underscored by inspired food-beer pairings that you can trust with your eyes closed. A playful, irreverent tone depicts the names of the dishes, in line with the establishment’s fun-loving ethos.
