And then there was me. And Stella. Cold, cheap Stella, just the way I like it. I stumbled upon Den Ouden Tijd by accident, just walking around. And then I found her. Cold, cheap Stella. By the end of the night (and many nights to follow), I was friends with the big blond lady...and the construction worker...and the couple with the kid. But I remained loyal to my Stella.

A creamy asparagus soup with a minced salmon garnish and truffle oil was sublime, only to be followed by a asparagus risotto garnished with duck breast confit, paprika creme fraiche and home-made shrimp chips. A four cheese course with great wine pairing was a taste progression. Even the first-day waiter was pleasant and eager to accommodate. Worth a trip to Leuven!

I really recommend this place if you're searching for some not too expensive nice Asian food with good taste! The people are very friendly there and the atmosphere is cozy and calm. Since my travels this summer through Thailand and Laos, it was the first time in Leuven that I thought: the taste of the food here is really close to what I ate last summer! (And I ate lots of local food back then.) An Asian friend of me also really liked the food and he knows what's pretty good. (Okay it's just one single person, but it means something :-) ) Since we were there for a belated birthday dinner, the girl who makes the food heard this and we got a really nice pancake-ish dish for my birthday (for free)! Sidenote: don't let yourself distract by the white lights in the front of the restaurant if you don't like this, in the back they have a cozy corner with dimmed warm light. Enjoy!
