Ghent and the Leie
Contemporary
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Food-sharing is at the center of this hip little addition to Ghent’s dining scene. By day, it runs a corner coffee shop and deli that’s good for a quick soup and sandwich stop, but come for lunch or dinner and it's another story. Slip down the alley next door to discover a quiet tree-lined approach-cum-terrace leading to a cozy, naturally lighted restaurant where meals consist of small pintxo-style dishes with an international flavor. Culinary influences span the globe, from Mediterranean-style roast lamb with anchovy pesto to Thai beef salad or Spanish churros; a number of dishes arrive on slabs of wood, encouraging you to swap and share with abandon.
