room for innovation and creativity in the LAB
The LAB is our test kitchen where we discover, invent and develop new flavours and ideas. Where we reinvent ourselves, not only in terms of our dishes. The materials used and the mutual cooperation are also a focus of attention.
Especially on Thursday, we make room to give this our dedicated attention and to creatively charge our team. Thursday also stands for Belle Business.
La Belle is growing
This desire for creativity was the starting point for Belle Fritte: Peter’s vision, in which freshness, health and quality are priority and where the chef presents the homemade produce, was given an extension here.
Did you know that La Belle recently started distilling its own gin? We call it “Moorland Flavours of the fir wood”, named after the hints of moorland, fir and devil’s claw that can be distinguished. These ingredients are growing and flourishing in the natural “Belse” environment.


Another star for La Belle
This afternoon, at the Handelsbeurs in the heart of Antwerp, Michelin awarded its renowned Michelin stars. Restaurant La Belle has been awarded a star for the thirteenth year in a row. This distinction is a recognition of the hard work of the entire team and of all our partners, who continue to set the bar high. Naturally, we do all this with heart and soul to ensure our guests enjoy a pleasant experience at La Belle. Without our guests, there would be no La Belle. We are deeply grateful to Michelin and truly honoured by the awarding of this Michelin star.
