If you want to try what Flynn McGarry has to offer, visit his ‘Gem’: Excellence Gourmetfestival with Flynn McGarry (23. October 2021)
I was super excited when I heard about Flynn McGarry coming to Europe to cook in one of the Excellence Gourmetfestival tours since I’ve visited the young chef in June 2019 in his New York restaurant ‘Gem’ and while there was some downside in terms of experience creating, he definitely had a few mouth-watering dishes […]
Definitely worth having breakfast when you’re staying at the hotel: Restaurant Le 1387 @ Maison Rouge Hotel & Spa (23. October 2021)
The Maison Rouge Hotel offers a great breakfast on the first floor ranging from vegetables, cold cuts, cheeses, … … as well as juices, drinks, yogurt, fresh fruit, … … a variety of different breads … … and pastries plus the opportunity to order all kinds of egg dishes you could wish for. All in […]
A speakeasy in a pizza place: Speakeasy Aedaen Place (22. October 2021)

The “nine course surprise tasting menu” (EUR 155.00) with the “wine pairing” (EUR 95.00) is definitely something, I can recommend. The first two amuse bouches were “cod fish with dill oil” which was absolutely mouth-watering and “beetroot with fish eggs” which was okay too but not as good as the cod. The “Parmesan sticks” were […]
An exquisite bar experience: Bar Le 1387 @ Maison Rouge Hotel & Spa (22. October 2021)
If you’re looking for a place with decent drinks, then the Bar Le 1387 is definitely a place I can recommend. It’s located right after the lobby of the Maison Rouge Hotel & Spa and is nice in terms of interior decoration. The drinks I tried were the “Garçonne (onctueux, puissant et floral épicé; vodka, […]
18. November 2013: Winstub S’Kaechele
A typical French restaurant and sound and fair French food is what you get at the Winstub S’Kaechele – the “Grapevine snails s’Kaechele au roquefort” (EUR 14.00, 6 pieces) are tasty or rather – the sauce au roquefort is absolutely delicious. As a main dish I went for “rognons de Veau, sauce moutarde à l’ancienne, […]
