Hostellerie Gilain

Alain Gilain, an ambassador of Wallon produce, sources his ingredients preferably from small local farms, like snails from Namur and game from local hunters, always with a focus on quality. He celebrates culinary traditions with generosity and is a fan of nostalgic rustic recipes, which doesn’t prevent him from exercising his creative streak. Snails in a flaky pastry case with garlic cream is a house signature dish. In the same vein, how about an immaculately cooked slice of foie gras flanked with a velvety seafood stock? Autumn is the season for fresh game, such as wild duck in gravy, delicately underpinned by tomatoes and spices. This hostelry unabashedly celebrates pure-bred Ardennes’ cooking rich in big-boned flavours, with the bonus of a romantic vibe and an exquisite view over the surrounding fields and meadows. Even better, treat yourself to a night in one of the comfortable rooms to finish your meal in style…
