The art nouveau décor of this Belgian restaurant is astonishing; it feels like going back to the twenties. The cuisine is imaginative, innovative and excellent. Typical dishes include Artichoke Carpaccio, Three Fish Waterzooi, Fried Potato Tartar and the more usual Speculoos and authentic Café Liégeois. You must taste the Chocolat Liégeois (chocolate ice-cream served with whipped cream) served in a jug for afternoon tea. A true delight! The choice of beers is particularly impressive and confusing for a novice. Service is sometimes slow when the restaurant is full, but the atmosphere is great.
