Menssa

Take a seat at the undulating counter, beneath the striking carved wooden tree, a tribute to nature, and enjoy the show as you admire the handiwork of the painstaking kitchen team. Menssa offers an all-round global experience and Christophe Hardiquest endeavours to share his vision of sustainable gastronomy, respect for producers and nature with diners. The experienced chef harnesses his knowhow and inventiveness to promoting his region. His knack for pairing mushrooms with a subtle blend of bitter coffee, smoked and marinated egg yolk and a vegetable emulsion demonstrates both his ethos and character. However, he also astounds by dishes like a fillet of Ardennes venison, which melts like butter in the mouth, that he flanks with a subtle game sauce and a truly outstanding and unexpected tempura of sweetbread. The insightful tips of the sommelier hit the spot every time as he finds just the right wine-food pairing – even better at prices that make sense. An establishment that is going from strength to strength.
