The best organic restaurants Belgium

The industrial decor of this organic eatery has a somewhat vintage feel. Very spacious and airy, it features well-separated tables and offers artists or collectors the opportunity to display their treasures or works. You'll receive a simple but sincere welcome and a smile. The philosophy of the place is slow food, using organic and seasonal products, with a vegetarian and even vegan bias. As if to put an end to clichés, the cuisine is refined, the plates pleasantly tidy and the prices very reasonable.

Enter the organic produce store and at the far end of the staircase, you're there. Chez Tan is the place to eat healthy, organic, vegetarian or flexitarian food: raw, marinated or cooked at low temperature, to preserve as many vitamins and original flavors as possible. Rare vegetables garnish the plates. Starters include fennel and avocado fettine marinated in lemongrass, with a purée of raw spring herbs, followed by a fillet of sea bass stuffed with spinach and wild garlic, with a cardamom emulsion of white asparagus. Culinary art!

It is a gastronomic restaurant with a festive atmosphere (themed meals, wine-growers' evenings,...) in an original setting. Its name comes from the base of the building which is a pile of blue stones, waste rock from the Forges which were very active in the 17th century and turned blue by the heat. Everything invites you to the table, worthy of good cooking. The motto: "Celebrate and feast in this Blue House". The cuisine is inspired by it, far from any standardization!

The Groot Eiland Workshop, among others, trains job seekers here to work as clerks, in the dining room and in Dutch. They have set up their restaurant in a part of the former malt house of the Belle-Vue brewery, in a beautiful, light room. A large part of the vegetables is grown in the garden on the spot. The rest is purchased locally and with unsold produce from the morning market. Each day, a different dish (meat or veg) but also salads and pastas. And on weekends, it's a gala menu in the evening. A hearty, healthy cuisine at a low price.
