Restaurant - Traiteur Toulouse — Restaurant in Ghent

For a person who has an absolute Chinese stomach, I feel so surprised and lucky that I tried the food here. Although I just ordered a shrimp kroketje, not expecting too much, it came with a full plate of attention and creativity.

The plate includes 2 big pieces of nicely fried kroketjes with caviar, 2 different salads with unique dressings and a sauce. The bread crumbs of the kroketjes have a special taste to it, perfectly fried, not greasy at all. Flavour of the filling is also right on point. I will say it’s tasty and not ordinary.

One of them (if I guess correct) is thin sliced apple or sth like papaya-ish vegetable with fennel flavour, very mild but completely blended together with the ingredients. Another one is beetroots, simple sweet/sour flavour but perfectly balance with the shrimp kroketje.

I think it worth paying a visit (if you are not nearby), if you trust a Chinese stomach recommending Belgian food, haha.

Anyway, good...

The house wine (a good white wine) and the outstanding homemade cheesecake, made by the master of the house himself, were not too heavy for the upcoming trip to the Lamb of God (the painting by the Eyck brothers in the...
