Ghent city guide

Are you thinking about opening a new restaurant in Ghent? Go ahead, but know that you’re not the only one. New restaurants are mushrooming. Some are brand new and run by chefs who worked in another famous restaurant in Belgium or Europe before. Some are bistro versions of well known Belgian restaurants.

Take a look at Naturell, which opened its doors in the beginning of 2014 and is run by Lieven Lootens. He already owns a well known restaurant close to Ghent, called ‘t Aards Paradijs (Paradise on Earth). Naturell is in the middle of the center, close to the castle and old port, on a cosy corner at the waterside. The food cannot be described. Probably one of the best meals I ever had. High quality products and matching garnish. They also serve a vegetable menu, suitable for vegetarians.

Not every day food, but if you want a real good meal and celebrate a special occasion, this place will mark your visit to Ghent for sure. Oh yeah, and don’t forget to wash your hands over there… just for the experience! Check it out!
