De Vijf Seizoenen

The Art Deco light fixtures inside this family-run modern French restaurant in Brakel set the tone: elegant, but grounded in something real. Brother, sister, and dad cook while mum and daughter-in-law run the room, and the menu leans hard on foraged Flemish Ardennes herbs and vegetables pulled from nearby fields. The cooking is seasonal and ingredient-driven, with fermented flavors and careful vegetable work doing most of the heavy lifting.
