One Star: High quality cooking
The regular premises of De Pastorie in Lichtaart are currently undergoing extensive renovation work, set for completion by late April 2025. Until then, Carl, Loes, and Wout Wens are operating their restaurant in Kasterlee, at what used to be De Watermolen. They have given the place a French twist: French chansons playing in the background, various paintings adorning the walls, and a striking Eiffel Tower mural. With great dedication and a wealth of expertise, chef Wens reinvigorates classic recipes. His son Wout injects a youthful energy, incorporating occasional bursts of Asian finesse. Their sophisticated cooking engages the senses. For instance, they pair succulent pan-seared langoustines with carrots enhanced by the bright zest of ginger and orange, as well as pineapple variations and a creamy coconut curry sauce for a touch of delicate spice. A symphony of flavours in the warmth of an attractive family-run establishment.
