Frommer's Review
Old paintings on the walls, a marble fireplace, chandeliers, and fine table linen all complement this château-restaurant's superb location on the Minnewater (Lake of Love). It exudes an unstuffy charm that makes château dining not just something for lords and ladies, and though prices have been edging up, it still provides a good deal considering the setting. Specialties include a suite of unpretentious Flemish seafood dishes such as the zeetong in boter gebakken en gebakken aardappelen (sole baked in butter with baked potatoes), and for a starter, the tasty huisgemaakte garnaalkroketten met salade (homemade shrimp croquettes with salad), made with the little gray North Sea shrimps. There's an excellent, Marseilles-influenced bouillabaisse, but using North Sea ingredients like cod, sole, shrimps, and shellfish. Carnivores can go for the varkenhaasje Archiduc en gebakken aardappelen (pork filet Archiduc with baked potatoes).
