Ik moet daar niet flauw over doen. Mijn woonplaats, Gent, naar men zegt toch de tweede grootste stad van Vlaanderen, is me behoorlijk tegengevallen op mijn queeste naar de beste steak-friet van Vlaanderen. Vaak bleek die matig in mijn city. Of te hoog geprijsd. Wat een contrast met de vele geweldige zaken in Antwerpen! De Rave is echter een verborgen parel in het centrum. Die ik u dan ook honderd ten honderd aanraad. Romantisch door kleinschaligheid. Maar daar fijnschaligheid van. Een klein aantal tafels in een tedere ruimte. Witte tafellakens op die tafels. Een lieve uitbater die bij een derde bezoek al perfect weet wat de voorkeuren zijn. En ze steeds milder tegemoet treedt. Cola bestelt hij slechts per halve bakjes, de rum mag erbij als ik eerst proef van de pure smaak. Bij de gniffelhapjes komt van het beste brood. Ik kan er van blijven eten, maar hou me in om caloriejetons over te houden voor steak en frieten. “Doe gelijk uw moeder, steek de overschot in uw zakken,” is het advies van de andere kant van de tafel. Doe ik toch maar niet. Dat heerlijke desembrood is trouwens huisgemaakt. Zoals werkelijk alles hier. Tot en met het verschillende snoepgoed bij de koffie. Passie als ondergrens. Mijn vlees, een stukje angus beef, is supersmaakvol. Meestal laat ik op restaurant de pepermolen zelf nog een aantal bochtjes inzetten. Hier hoeft dat dus niet. De champignons in de saus drijven boven wegens hun aantal. Wat een heerlijk, verse bite! Hetzelfde geldt voor de heel erg lekkere frieten. “In ossenwit gebakken,” zo bevestigt de uitbater mijn vermoeden. “Dat kunnen we niet meer veranderen.” Gouden woorden, die. Maak daar platina woorden van. Anne De Baetzelier zou het beamen. Meer steak-friet-recensies op mijn Insta!

Een verademing in een stad waar de “hippe restaurants” als paddenstoelen uit de grond schieten. Witte tafellakens, een rustige sfeer en bediening zonder getatoeëerde voorarmen. Love it! Ps: de niertjes in de mosterdsaus zijn geweldig!
