Castel Fragsburg: Fantastic Gourmet Restaurant

The road narrows into tight laces,

lined with vineyards, for your viewing pleasure! The restaurant’s charming Castel Fragsburg nestled atop a mountain, offers a panoramic on a bucolic landscape and the stonished Dolomites.

Simple, elegant and timeless, the atmosphere reminds me of the famous Dejeuner sur l’herbe of Renoir. I feel good, so I could spend hours on the terrace. With a good book under the shade of trees, lulled by a gentle breeze …

What choosing? A sparkling water followed by divine staters. Originality of tastes and textures and beautiful presentation. An unique mustard ice cream (picture 2). My plates look like paintings.

The presention is neat and airy,

with small proportions. I like the balance between solids and voids in a plate. The smiling staff is really professional, present without being intrusive. The main course is a succulent fish on a bed of black rice. Light and tasty.

More salty than sweet, I didn’t taste the desserts, but I like the concept of dark chocolate sticks with salty popcorn (picture 3). Very regressive!

I finish the meal with a great passion fruit tea (picture 4)! My gaze rests on a couch by the pool: now the farniente (or the “doing absolutely nothing” art) is calling me! Enjoy the break!

South Tyrol: Stadele, A Really Good Restaurant In Lana

I Like Light Dishes Based On Fish-vegetables 

Definitely olive oil, I do not like sauces and fatty dishes disgust me. The most important is the quality of ingredients, cooking mode and “airy” presentation.

The cuisine with Mediterranean influences of Wenin Matthias, the Stadele chef, suits me perfectly! Simple, tasty, with a touch of originality and light.

I discovered an excellent black bread served hot (picture above), typical of the region. Prices are fair, the service and location are very pleasant. It feels good in this unpretentious family restaurant, housed in an old converted barn.

Garuda, THE Indonesian Restaurant of Brussels

You miss Bali, exotism… Welcome to the club! Before packing your (oops our) luggages, you must stop by Garuda, the unique Indonesian restaurant in Brussels! Yes, sounds exciting, isn’t it? The trip starts in the plate, to warm up our taste buds anesthetized by the cold. Honestly, I didn’t have any idea about the Indonesian food and even more the Sundanese food! After leaving my priori of food monomaniac, I’ve really enjoyed the Sate ayam (chicken sticks with peanuts sauce), very different than the Thai version and the Udang dabu-dabu (grilled scampi with fresh spices). Then I chose the Ikan bawal saus kecap (a fish called Pomfret – looks like a fossil, lol! – grilled with soya sauce): EXCELLENT (picture below)! I’ve also enjoyed the eggs with Balado sauce (picture 3). And surprisingly the food was not too spicy. I didn’t eat any dessert, but for ones addicted to sugar, there were donuts with fried banana flambé… See ya in Bali guys!

Garuda: 25 Avenue Adolphe Buyl, 1050 Brussels. Open from 12 p.m. to 2.30 p.m. and from 6 p.m. to 10.30 p.m. Closed on Sunday. www.garudabrussels.eu
