MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

One Star: High quality cooking

The glorious Bistrot du Nord immerses you in a full-blown bygone era. As soon as you cross the threshold, colourful old floor tiles, wall mirrors and wainscoting set the scene in this quintessential bistro of yesteryear, providing the perfect foil to equally nostalgic nosh. Veteran Michaël Rewers enthusiastically curates hearty classical recipes and his à la carte score is knockout. He admits to a weakness for meat and tripe in dishes that require high-precision technique, an area in which he excels. Warm lobster salad is contrasted with crunchy green asparagus, wax beans and grapefruit; grilled veal kidneys are dressed in a gutsy gravy underscored by a dash of vodka or the terrine is given a kick with poultry livers… Good old-fashioned, no-nonsense food in all its glory, enhanced by chef Rewers’ deft touch for cuisine that is both scrumptious and delicate. Big-boned, honest, soul-warming food that is something of a rarity nowadays. Don’t forget to book!
