Restaurant A’Qi thrives on contrasts. Never taking anything for granted and daring to go against the flow have proven to be a recipe for success as the restaurant has recently been awarded a Michelin star. Two chefs, Arnold Hanbuckers and Anita Desmet, both strong-willed, with great personality and an own voice. Their kitchen as a dialogue. Every plate that is presented has been carefully composed by their four hands. Their inventive, colourful cuisine fuses Asian refinement and Western culinary tradition, a combination of nature and culture. A deep love for pure raw materials and unrefined nature result in exquisite dishes with a hint of the exotic and eccentric, but always well-balanced and never overprocessed. A good product doesn’t need many embellishments. Getting this balance ‘just right’ is the biggest thrill for chefs and the greatest delight for their clientele.
