Vol-Ver

Vol-Ver is the epitome of Flemish charm, hospitality and good taste as the handsome brick walls and warm welcome from Sharon and chef Sébastien Verveken bear witness. The set and à la carte menus may seem low profile, but right from the first bite, you will taste the chef’s wholehearted approach to cooking. Don’t go expecting fussy frills, however, as chef Verveken is more interested in subtlety and in harnessing his skill to showcasing familiar flavours, albeit with nods to Asia. For example, he may serve mussels as a starter in the form of a vibrant ceviche, before going on to pair them with a flawlessly cooked piece of monkfish flanked by a sauce made out of fish stock and masala curry. This uninhibited chef cooks boldly, but always in a bid to showcase each ingredient’s intrinsic delicacy. The establishment’s decision to offer beer and non-alcoholic beverages, as well as wine pairings, is truly inspired!
