  1. Rizoom

    Modern Japanese

    Koji fermentation and dry-ageing drive the menu at this creative restaurant in Ghent, where the chef's Japanese technique shapes dishes built around umami and seasonal produce. The room is a post-industrial loft that somehow feels cosy, and the open kitchen puts the whole process on display. The wine and sake list is serious enough that ordering a glass takes a quiet minute. A place for people who think about where sauces come from.

    Two honors, in evidence:
