A nice place with a bohemian feel to it. Their menu is simple and unsurprising, but that's exactly…read morewhat you expect from a place like this. Regular belgian/french "brasserie" style dishes at decent prices They have four or so vegetarian choices which I think is a good change from most other restaurants. The vegetarian lasagna was really good, their salad's fried falafels were a bit dry. The beer is a tad expensive though but that's a only minor complaint. Beer is always cheap in Belgium so you notice it when they're half a euro more expensive than usual. I've been here several times already over the past years and will keep coming back, sporadically.

We did the tasting menu of 6 courses and added the cheese. Really friendly new owner, great food. we loved the pigeon which we never tried before and the chocolate dessert which was absolutely exquisite. I would go back just to order the chocolate cake; it was that good. Had a long wait in between one of our courses but when we explained we had an appointment, they sped things up for us and accomodated our needs. Really enjoyed this experience.

Second time we visited Troubadour and it won't be our last…read more John, the owner comes to your table and explains the menu in a very animated and loving way. He's a gorgeous man with a love for food. And that's something you can taste in his food. It is exquisite! The only downside this time was I had two fish bones in my pheasant. When I told the waiter he didn't really make anything of it. A small apology would have been nice. But as I said the food is exquisite so accidents do happen sometime I know. We took the matching wines and I can only say, if you go and eat there, I would strongly advice you to do the same. The wines and food are a match made in heaven.

We stared with a ceviche of monk fish and octopus. Followed by a cold broccoli and mussel soup. Then wild salmon. As the main dish we had duck breast and the night ended with a wonderful dessert plate. De Troubadour is an amazing culinary experience. I highly recommend it.
