Opening my gift at the table

Two years in a row now I’ve celebrated Christmas dinner at Lux Restaurant in ‘t Eilandje. Delicious food and a great atmosphere!

Lux is part of a restaurant group. Lux opened first – a fine dining restaurant serving Belgian cuisine. Then MÓN opened down the road – a grill/steak restaurant. After the success of the two restaurants, the idea came to work with guaranteed quality meat and the chefs set out to become farmers. Successful with the venture, they decided to expand and open a butchershop/atelier. Thus lastly came Millevaches, an excellent, beautiful butcher located still a bit further down the road. So now we’re full circle: farmer, butcher, and chef.

The amuses-bouche

Oyster with caviar

Flavors of tomato and basil

Foie gras with speculoos flavors

My starter: alternating layers of venison carpaccio and foie gras

My main: pheasant with cabbage and Jersalem artichokes

Cheese, of course!

Mysterious dessert

Oliebollen and blood orange juice to end!
