On november 25th 2014 Michelin announced his stars for the new Michelin guide Belgium Luxembourg. The excitement and tension didn’t stop the top chefs from being present at the ‘Horeca Expo Beurs’ in Ghent. It was a night of teeth grinding nervousness, hope, tension, joy and regrattably disillusion.
The new edition of the Michelin guide has chosen 11 restaurants with one star:
- The Jane – Antwerp
- Philippe Meyees – Braine-l’Alleud
- Le monde est Petit – Brussels
- Le Pigeon Noir – Brussels
- Da Mimmo – Brussels
- Publiek – Ghent
- D’Oude Pastorie – Lochristi
- Aux Petits Oignons – Nivelles
- Héliport Brasserie – Luik
- Les Pieds dans le Plat – Marche en Famenne (from Bib Gourmand to a star)
- La Cristallerie – Luxembourg
While the guide’s publication already has met with a storm of newspaper columns and tweets, we simply wish to congragulate the newcomers in the Michelin guide as well as the establishments who managed to rise up in the ranks and the chefs who managed to retain their spot in the ranking.
