To get here you have to go into the MAS museum and take the elevator up, where every table in the house as a great view of Antwerp. The music is curated to start chill with Jazz and get more eclectic and energetic as the meal progresses. The service is near flawless. There was a little bit of slowness between courses about half way through, but we were having a great time and didn't mind taking the time to digest and enjoy the view and music. The tasting menu was good, but not every course was delicious and the desserts were quite forgettable. However there was a mussel course that blew our minds - I don't actually like mussels much and this as one of the best things I've ever eaten in any restaurant. The langoustine was also a show stopper. I don't usually think about the bread too much but the bread here was insane, the best brioche we've ever had. Hubby thought the wines worked with then food, good but not great. Total damage $880 for two tastings and one wine pairing. If you wish to add tip, they can only take it in cash though, so come prepared. I hemmed and hawed about whether I thought this was a 4 or 5 star review because not everything was super tasty, but the ones that were - WOW. In general if a restaurant can leave me withn lasting warm fuzzy memory, it was worth it. Definitely worthy of 3 Michelin Stars and 5 hours of your life.

So I went there and we talked a bit with the owner, and he explained the process that he is using to make the gin, which botanicals and fruit peels he is using and why he chose them. We also had a quick tasting session, which was great. After that, I asked for a gin and tonic (local craft tonic water named syndrome was a perfect match for the house gin) and it was time for dinner. A pork belly was served as a delicious starter. After that I got their black angus ribs with french fries. I came for the gin, but their food is seriously good! I finished with a dessert made with coffee ice cream with amaretto foam and chocolate crumbles. Hmmm, so so good!

It certainly looked good and I wished that I was hungry myself! I love the decor; there are lots of little pictures and paintings all around. We just had drinks, hot chocolate for me, which was hidden below all the whipped cream.

The menu was varied and we had a lot of great choices. I would highly recommend dining here. Compliments to the chef!

I did a walk-in around early evening and thankfully I was able to be seated quickly. The inside is quite nice, with decor that's on the fancier side. I decided to get the horsemeat steak, which came with some vegetables and a nice sauce. The meat itself was cooked pretty well, although it was a bit tougher than regular beef that I've had. I think overall I'm glad that I tried it for the novelty aspect, although I'm not sure if it's a dish that I would get regularly. Overall it's a nice spot that is worth checking out if you want to check this off your bucket list of foods to try!

Apparently they are supplied by patrons. There seemed to be a good mix of locals and tourists. The menu is straightforward enough. I ordered mussels in a white wine sauce and it was quite the feast. I had the dark beer which is my favorite but they have a really good list. Ed tried the house 'red' beer that turned out to be very fruity, but with a hearty alcohol content. He ordered one thing, veal, but what came out seemed ab entirely different dish, chicken and pork. He enjoyed it so it was OK. He ordered potato croquettes with it and they were good. I thought I might get the ubiquitous fries (frites) but that didn't happen. They did give me a container of mayonnaise which one would assume is for fries, but when I inquired the waiter said it was for the mussels (?!) I guess I had to take his word for it. The portions were good and we left satisfied even with the glitches.

I ordered: - Shrimp croquette - there's small shrimps in this. Not small pieces of shrimp, but small shrimps. A bit of a surprise for me. Was OK tasting. - Fries - used to dip in my stew. I will admit maybe this is a ME thing, but the fries I've had here in general have not been stellar. Too potato-y and not crispy enough. - Beef stew - supposed to be the highlight. Flavors were OK, but the meat was just kind of dry and not very tender. After a while the sauce was a bit salty. The portion was good though. Overall OK, just the beef stew wasn't that great for me. It seems I should have ordered the mussels though, as so many other tables ordered it. Next time I will try that instead!
