In July, I went to Ghent, Belgium with Blondine for a day of culinaire outing. Our plan was to have lunch at the ‘Pakhuis’ or at ‘Volta’. However, the Pakhuis Restaurant is closed, or has closed down, I am not sure anymore. We were just told that the restaurant is closed. I wanted to check out the other option which is Volta but we were already running late. Many restaurants are closing their kitchen at 14:30 so Blondine and I scurried back to the Graslei area and settled for interesting restaurant…
Belga Queen (Ghent)
Website: Belga Queen (Restaurant-Club-Brasserie).
I held my breath when the waiter told us that the kitchen for the extensive lunch menu is already closed, however, he said that we can still order lunch from their short menu. Super big sigh of relief!
I so love loooong lunches. Here’s our lunch in Ghent:
See-through Toilets
The interior design of the restaurant is forward in design and was quite striking. Steel and hanging hallways. And oh, especially the washroom. They have see-through toilets! But when you are inside and you lock the door, the see-through door becomes one-way mirror, so no worries =)
Belga Queen also has a lovely location on the Graslei with the view to the canal. Highly recommended place!
