We really enjoyed  't Vlasbloemeken, nice service, really nice dishes with great pairing wines. The very special 30 year old wine with the cheeses was one of the highlights of the evening. Without a doubt I can recommend this restaurant. One of the things that surprised me at the end was the check.... Full evening, with champagne, pairing wines and the special 30 year old wine and a 7 course dinner for two persons at this level for only €450,-, I had to check twice and ask if this was correct... It was! Great evening. But think about your transportation, taxis are not widely available...

The host is a kind lady that was very welcoming and made us feel at home. She looked after us with care during the whole evening.
The atmosphere is quite intimate, since there are only about 10 tables.
The food was classical French, served in a stylish and creative way.
Definitely worthwhile a visit.
