OAK: Michelin dining in the heart of Ghent
Food & drinks
€ 250 - 500
Nestled in the heart of Ghent, Belgium, OAK is more than just a restaurant—it's a culinary journey that delights all senses. As a seasoned traveller with a passion for gastronomy, I recently had the pleasure of experiencing OAK, and let me tell you, it surpassed all expectations. ✨ Led by the visionary chef Marcelo Ballardin with roots in Brazil and Italy, OAK embodies the essence of contemporary cuisine, infusing each dish with fresh, seasonal ingredients. Chef Ballardin and his talented team weave together the most astonishing flavour combinations. But OAK isn't just about the food—it's an experience from the moment you step into its new location. A beautifully renovated 17th-century house that breathes charm and elegance, serving as the perfect backdrop for what's to come. Walk past the open kitchen to the spacious dining area where every detail is carefully curated to enhance your dining experience. And just when you think the experience couldn't get any better, you're invited to linger a little longer in another room for coffee and tea, surrounded by characterful design and contemporary art—a fitting end to an unforgettable dining experience.
