This is the third time I visited Barge. I must admit I hadn't been for some years, so it was almost like 'a first visit'. We were at a gallery art opening just before and this was walking distance away. This neighbourhood, once 'troubled', is reviving and the anticpated opening of the Kanal Museum will only improve that.
The food was excellent. From the appetizer to the mignardises, it was all delicious. There was just not one dish that didn't match the expectations.
I'm a wine lover, but lately I'm trying to reduce my alcohol consumption so I'm exploring other options. Choosing for the non alcoholic choice on the menu has been disappointing at many restaurants, but here they went the extra mile to make it a wonderful experience. Each glass was explained with the same passion as they do with wines.
The team, chefs and waiters, were super nice. As a Flemish native in Brussels, I always go for Dutch first and switch to French if they don't master the language. They did their very best to serve me in my native language.
I shouldn't wait years to come back to this address.
