Over the years we have built a relationship with our suppliers and producers. That means we know their products better, and you enjoy truly top-quality produce at the table.

Our kitchen works as much as possible with fresh, seasonal ingredients.

We raise our Black Angus ourselves.

Chef Ludovic Ghyselen raises his own Black Angus cattle, together with Arnaud Vandenbogaerde, under the name Angus Grand Cru.

The menu includes côte de bœuf (dry aged), picanha, bavette, paleron and filet pur.
