1: Lokaal - Looking for seasonal variety

Gent is a great city for vegetarians and veggie lovers, plus you can find numerous local and delicious ingredients. If you are looking for a local vegetarian experience, Lokaal is the place to go. There you can feast your heart's content of vegetables and other natural treats. They adapt the ingredients weekly and create seasonal menus. You will enjoy your 100% vegan and home made meal in a beautiful and cozy surrounding with the best music with the sound only vinyls can offer. One friend once told me you could go blind folded and trust completely in their taste. Original, fresh and tasty, what else do you need?

4: Wasbar - combine a meal with doing your laundry 

This restaurant called Wasbar is the perfect place for that, as I discovered last week. On the first floor, they integrated the washing machines in their wooden design creating a studently atmosphere. Especially for lunch, it is the perfect place to be because they offer sandwiches, bagels, salads and bagel-burgers. While using the washing machine, you can enjoy a delicious food nicely arranged and amazing for your Instagram or Pinterest there – so check it out!

5: Garden of eating - great for eating outside

As the summer will come soon, Tuin van Eten is a great spot for eating outside. But also, the interior design is beautiful and charming. If you adore Art Noveau like me, you will instantly love the atmosphere there. Nice fact as well: Tuin van Eten means “Garden of eating” in English. Since the botanical garden is very close to the restaurant/brasserie, you can also have a walk through this afterwards. The food is very suitable for students hence it is simple but incredibly tasty.
