restaurant review #583 – Absolutely RECOMMENDED (and you know I don’t say that lightly ;-))

#579 Fine dining menu, ‘t Vijfde Seizoen, Aalter (5)

restaurant review #579 – This is one of my favourite places. Not too far from Bruges & Ghent.

#514 Gastronomic popup restaurant Roots, Bruges

restaurant review #514 – Gastronomic plantbased menu, with local ingredients! This was a pop-up restaurant, a project – from concept to execution – run by students of @viveshogeschool (last year BA Culinary arts).The menu was fully plantbased, and all ingredients locally sourced! Yeah!

#436 One of our favourites! Gastronomic dinner at ‘t Vijfde seizoen, Aalter (4)

restaurant review #436 – I have posted several reviews of ‘t Vijfde Seizoen in Aalter before (REVIEWS), and just realised that I had forgotten to post impressions from a visit in March of 2023! I know, I’m way late with this one! But want to post anyway, because this place really is one of our favourites to go dining out! I’m amazed it’s not better known in the vegan community. 🤗 This place is so good!! 🤩

#407 One of our favourites! Plantbased menu at Patrick Devos, Bruges (3)

restaurant review #407 – Been here a couple of times, and it’s always a delight, the decor, the comfort, the service and the food!

#380 Vegan fine dining in lovely decor, Patrick Devos, Brugge (2)

restaurant review #380 – We had a lovely lunch at Restaurant Patrick Devos in Brugge! 🌿🌿💚💚 Last time we visited was 10 yrs ago (!!) when we could get a vegan menu on request (see review here, it was one of the first on my blog #3). Now they have a full vegan menu standardly available! This is from a visit in February 2023.

#375 Plantbased fine dining. Delicious, but expensive, Amaranth, Merelbeke

restaurant review #375 – Amaranth is a plantbased fine dining restaurant in Merelbeke (close to Ghent). It is run by chef Pieter-Jan Lint and Carmen Duytschaever. We’ve previously already tasted Pieter-Jan Lint’s creations at a party at friends (see HERE) and had take away for Christmas (see HERE). Delicious! So we were very pleased with this new restaurant (opened in 2022).

#291 Gastronomic festive menu from Pieter-Jan Lint

restaurant review #291 – We already had the pleasure of tasting the dishes of plantbased chef Pieter-Jan Lint at a private party (see HERE) and it was delicious. So we were very happy to see the offer of a vegan gastronomic menu for Christmas and New Years eve (end of 2020).

#284 Nice gastronomic vegan lunch at Naturell, Ghent

restaurant review #284 – Naturell is the ‘sister restaurant’ of ‘t Aards Paradijs in Nevele, which we have visited a couple of years ago (see restaurant review #156 here). In 2010, chef Lieven Lootens was awarded the title of best vegetable chef of the year (beste Groentekok). Our visit to ‘t Aards Paradijs was a great gastronomic experience, and we have been wanting to go to Naturell for quite a while. A couple of weeks ago it finally happened, as we went there to celebrate my 50th birthday. Yeah 🙂 This review is from a visit to Naturell in October 2020, before the second lockdown measures due to the COVID19 pandemic started.

#282 One of our best dining out experiences, ‘t Vijfde Seizoen (2), Aalter

restaurant review #282 – ‘t Vijfde Seizoen is a gastronomic restaurant in Aalter (between Bruges and Ghent). This literally translates as ‘the fifth season’. There is always a vegetarian menu standardly available, which can be veganised upon request (it’s advised to ask it in advance, and we did when making the reservation). I already posted a review of a visit to ‘t Vijfde Seizoen in 2018 here. This review is from a visit to ‘t Vijfde Seizoen in February 2020, just before the lockdown measures due to the COVID19 pandemic started. Upon making the reservation for dinner, the restaurant also asked us to notify them by noon whether we choose the 4-course or 5-course menu. We went for the latter which is 70 euro per person. These appetizers came with our drinks (we had an alcohol free cocktail, 8€): tofucroquette, paprika coulis, pomegranate quinoa butternut, and courgette soup.
