Zilte is located on the top floor of the MAS museum in Antwerp and offers a breathtaking view of the city. The interior is modern, yet very warm and homely. In the kitchen you will find Viki Geunes, famous Belgian chef, awarded with three Michelin stars. The name Zilte refers to the salty flavours of fish, shellfish and crustaceans that define the kitchen. Zilte does not have a wine cellar, but a kind of wine attic that you can admire while sitting in the restaurant. Besides a magnificent wine list, sommelier Aaron Moeraert also offers several options by the glass with each dish. Be sure to...

Sustainable Wine List of the Year Belgium 2024
Ona N Arne. A lovely couple with a beautiful wine bar on the Nederkouter in Ghent. A second branch has just opened in the center of Ghent. The new location will have even more space for events, workshops, classes, and tastings. Ona was just named “Wine Lady of the Year 2023” in Belgium and her husband Arne should certainly not be outdone. Together, they have a unique project with two very cozy bars and delicious wines. ONA stands for wine with a message, as they put it themselves. They have made a nice selection of authentic wines made by smaller producers with a great passion for their craf...

Austrian Wine List of the Year Belgium, presented by Austrian Wine 2024
Paul de Pierre is not just a cosy and stylish restaurant, but a fantastic event location, too. It is situated in Maarkedal, a picturesque village nestled among the fields in the Flemish Ardennes. Paul-Henri is the owner – one of the best maître d'hôtels in Belgium and a very good sommelier. He is passionate about wine, and that has translated into an extensive wine list with over 1,200 references. In the restaurant, host Paul-Henri also values the experience and this ranges from decanting wine to opening bottles with port tongs. Paul de Pierre recently won the famous Copa Jerez competition a...

Best Medium-sized List of the Year Belgium, presented by Le Wine 2024
One of my favourite Italian restaurants in the heart of the Flagey area. It has an open kitchen with a comptoir, little negozio (shop) when you enter, showing off some of the best food and drink Italy has to offer. The feeling in the restaurant is relaxed, and the place is buzzing with life. The food is Italian at the highest level, and cooked with consummate skill - the simple yet amazing tomato jelly you are likely to get as an appetizer is simply gorgeous! The wine list is massive, and proudly Italian. Every single region is well represented, with both up and coming to the most well kno...

Geoffrey Adam worked for the restaurant as a sommelier for more than ten years before taking over recently. He has changed the name to Tablàvins, placing even more emphasis on wine, as it suggests. The restaurant is located in a side street of the seawall in Knokke, a beautiful town on the Belgian coast. All his experience results in a beautiful wine list with a lot of gems on it. In addition to wines from Burgundy and Italy, Geoffrey is also a big fan of regions such as the Loire, Rhone and Jura. Definitely try them out!
