We were visiting Bruges and staying at Hotel Aragon, and this restaurant came highly recommended on…read morethe hotel's list. It checked all the boxes I was looking for - local Belgian cuisine, affordable, close by, and open late. Exactly what you want after a long day of drinking Belgian beers. I didn't realize ribs were such a big deal in Belgium, so I was genuinely excited when I ordered them... only to feel deep disappointment when the server returned to let me know they had just sold out. Luckily, I pivoted to the vol-au-vent and had absolutely no regrets. The chicken was moist and creamy, and the pastry was incredibly flaky and light. Naturally, I paired it with a Trappist ale, which felt mandatory. Cozy, satisfying, and quintessentially Belgian--this spot lived up to the recommendation and then some.

It's certainly a charming little place, and on a slightly drizzly day it was a very pleasant place to be in from the cold and rain. The Mosselen Natuur (plain steamed mussels) were big, meaty, well-cleaned, and tasty, but if you're not a shellfish fan, the Stoofpotje van Varkenswangetjes (pork cheek stew) is a great choice. Extremely tender pork cheek with minimal excess fat, and a lot of it, with a delicious red wine sauce plus much better fries than we'd had earlier on the main square made my night. I'd say that this was the best meal I had in our trip to Belgium, definitely one I'd repeat if we visit Bruges again!

There are many choices for great food along the Belgian coast. We decided to have an outing to De Haan for dinner. Everything was great from start to finish; and by "start" I mean the quick email response to our inquiry about hours and availability. We got an almost instant reply to our email. Within a few minutes, we made a reservation with ease. The restaurant is right on the beach with wall to wall windows overlooking the North Sea. Staff are welcoming and very helpful. The menu offers a wide variety of choices, including vegetarian options. There are dishes for small or big appetites. See their menu for all the great options! Enjoy!

My family got the Filet Mignon and they all liked theirs and they were cooked to order. I got the Kangaroo steak (see photo). Everything was tasty. The Kangaroo is likely a dish I wouldn't get again as it just wasn't my thing. Perhaps it was just the sauce/gravy and the Kangaroo was good. I'm not sure. Service was a little slow and the restaurant wasn't that busy. I just don't think they were in a rush for anything. This is not necessarily a bad thing, just an observation.

This year, I decided to approach Michelin dining differently, focusing on the chef's vision rather than portion size, and Va et Vient delivered on every level. The standout here is the staff. The service was seamless and attentive, which is impressive given how many people were involved throughout the evening. The nine-course menu focused on the North Sea, with each dish beautifully presented and clearly tied to the theme. Each dish was delicious. My standout dishes were the rabbit, scallop, and haddock, as well as the blue cheese berry tartlet. As non-drinkers, we truly appreciated the sommelier creating a custom mocktail just for us. If you're celebrating something special or looking for a memorable night out in Kortrijk, this restaurant is a true gem. Reservations highly recommended. And yes, I left feeling wonderfully full.
