Amazing food, beautiful presentation and great service. The chefs also made most dishes lactose free for me and were accommodating. The langoustine was abit too sour due to the yuzu so it was lacking some balance in the flavours but overall, our dining experience was memorable. We enjoyed the freshly baked breads as well. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a special culinary experience in the area of Bilzen!
