Yeah it was good. I left with a full belly. Not particularly unsatisfied. But I think whoever talked me into eating here put my expectations a little too high. A bit too pricy for what I got in terms of value. To be blunt.

De place to be om te genieten op de rooftop bar en in het restaurant waar meatlovers zeker aan hun trekken komen!! Ook de mogelijkheid om de super handelszaken te bezoeken en een bezoek te maken aan de brouwerij De Koninck! Top personeel en zalige cocktails.

Best een aardige tent. De sfeer die gecreëerd wordt is er eentje van losjes genieten van een zorgvuldig gekozen lapje vlees. Het was lekker en gezellig. Voor wat we kregen vond ik het wel te prijzig. De smaken waren smokey maar niet verfijnd genoeg. De cuisson zat dan weer wel goed.
