Zilte — Restaurant in Antwerpen

On the top floor of the MAS museum, on the Eilandje, Zilte looks out over the port and the city. Self-taught chef Viki Geunes started in Mol, where he won two Michelin stars; since moving to the MAS, Zilte has held three. His cooking is refined and precise, with great attention to flavour.

The wine is in the hands of sommelier Aaron Moeraert, the partner of Geunes' daughter Gitte. Instead of a cellar there is a wine attic you can see from your table. Moeraert pours several wines by the glass with each dish, so you can choose for yourself, and there is also a wine pairing. Book well ahead; Zilte is closed at weekends. Recommended for a special occasion on a visit to Antwerp.
