Whatelse: definitely one of the best restaurants we have eaten at, where we had in total 10 wonderful dishes and some excellent wines: shrimp cocktail, onionsoup with apple and calvados, oysters prepared three ways (raw with grapefruit, gartin with bacon and spumante and deep-fried with "aardperen-mousse"), pasta with lobstersauce, the main course, five lovely cheeses, a cinnamon parfait with a fruit sorbet, lemon cake with a colonel and, with the coffee, a madeleine w vanilla sauce, a truffle filled with ginger and a coffee mousse. We had a wonderful evening, excellent service and we enjoyed ourselves as well. As we stayed at Piloersema borg, some 15 km from the restaurant, we travelled back and forth in a regio taxi, which was a nice rock-music filled experience in it self. And on top of all this, the borg we stayed at was wonderful as well. We will definitely take Frans and Mechteld there!!
