We have been here several times. The restaurant is beautiful and the food always fantastic. I prefer the restaurant at night. We went on 20 April and had a delightful waiter (a music student) and the meal was exactly what I fell in love with as an 18 year old in Cape Town. If eaten at everyone on his restaurants (also in Gent) and I'm just grateful that he is still around.
I'm treating it with a much more informal expectation than I did at Tokara, but it is probably more like the eclectic Bonthuis of the 90's. The service in Cape Town was simply streets better and the energy more contagious.
But I'm glad to say that it is my birthday today and the choice was between Pierneefs and Casparus for me. (Pierneefs will see my later this month.)
I'm looking forward to my meal and hopefully the musician is still working in our section.
(On the only real negative note- the temperature control not is really what it should be)
