The Experience
From Michelin Guide
Sweet. Bitter. Salty. Sour. Umami. These five flavours are the basis of every cuisine, but what Ron Lemmens creates with them can certainly be described as unique. His precise cuissons and the depth of his sauces are testament to his expertise. His ability to bring in international influences to produce exciting creations speaks to his knowledge of flavours.For example, he pan-fries cod to perfection and harmoniously combines it with sauerkraut, cream of Jerusalem artichoke, roasted capers and lovage and, most importantly, a jus made from cod in an intensely flavoured beurre blanc. Chef Lemmens does not go in for gratuitous surprises, but resolutely opts for robust flavours. He delighted us with his langoustines, crispy pork belly and carrot with the exotic nuances of ginger, tandoori and curry. His secret lies in the balance of flavours and combinations.At Flavours, you have a choice between one dining area done out in dark tones and a second space decorated in golden hues. Whichever you opt for, the stylish decor is further proof of the restaurant's good taste, right down to the last detail – this place really lives up to its name.
Unique Things
From Visitor Experiences
Three unique/unconventional aspects of Flavours, Weert (Michelin-starred restaurant):
Mastery of the Five Basic Flavours with International Influences
Chef Ron Lemmens expertly balances the five fundamental tastes—sweet, bitter, salty, sour, and umami—infusing his dishes with international influences to create exciting and robust flavour combinations. For example, his pan-fried cod is paired with sauerkraut, Jerusalem artichoke cream, roasted capers, lovage, and a cod jus in beurre blanc, showcasing his precision and depth in sauces.Deliberate Avoidance of Gratuitous Surprises in Favor of Robust Flavours
Unlike some Michelin-starred restaurants that focus on gimmicks or unexpected elements, Flavours opts for a resolute focus on strong, balanced flavours rather than gratuitous surprises. This approach is evident in dishes like langoustines with crispy pork belly and carrot, accented by exotic spices such as ginger, tandoori, and curry.Distinctive Dual Dining Ambience
The restaurant offers two contrasting dining areas: one decorated in dark tones and the other in golden hues. This stylistic choice enhances the dining experience and reflects the restaurant’s attention to detail and good taste, complementing the culinary artistry.
