Willem Hiele

An absolutely, cannot miss, incredible experience while traveling ANYWHERE in Belgium, Northern France or Southwest Netherlands. One of the best fine dining experiences I’ve had. Incredible value for what you’re getting. First off, the setting is spectacular. The property the experience takes place on is stunning. You’re surrounded by tranquil farms and the house where the dining room is located is an architectural marvel. The renovations are stunning. I can’t imagine the amount of work that went into this project. The service, from the second you’re there is perfect. It’s not our typical 3 Michelin star experience but in a good way (I know the restaurant does not have 3 stars (at this moment) but the experience I can assure you is like or better than any other 3 star experience I’ve had). It’s all hands on deck here and I loved it. You’re served by Willem himself, his sister, a sommelier, other chefs and so on. Everyone here works so hard. There is no making up for that. The passion oozes from everyone and it takes everyone to make it work. It seemed that everyone’s strengths balances one another’s weakness. What a team they had there. The food and timing was impeccable the whole evening. Everything tasted great, was unique, a challenge to make and beautiful. The thought and creativity that went into dishes is borderline savant. It was great to hear from Willem on many of the dishes as he just has a knack for words and making things mix together. The drink list was impeccable we mostly followed along with the wine pairing which was unique, awesome and tasted great. Coffee and cocktail service is better than 90+% of other fine dining experiences I’ve been to. Just very unique. Bonus points go to Willem here. What a place him and his team have built. Just a great host and an overall amazing person. Such a pleasure to get to spend the evening with him. I will for sure be back and will stay the night next time. If you’re on the fence because of price or location, just go, you won’t regret it.

No words only thé best good experience.

Best restaurant experience we had ever! Willem and Shana are amazing persons! We'll come back for sure!

Magical experience with delicious food

Fantastic locale, sublime food, incredible attention to detail, beautiful honour to the chef's grandparents

Amazing ambiance, quietly intellectual and thoughtful food that's also simply delicious. Worth the drive.
