Vers Namur

Mastercook Sam Wils is a chef who pursues flavor and satisfied guests, not Michelin stars. His restaurant "Vers Namur", named after the Naamsesteenweg that connects Leuven with Namur, has become a beloved destination for food enthusiasts from across the region.

"Vers Namur" is housed in a 400-year-old building in Blanden, just a stone's throw from Leuven. The warm interior full of character and history combines coziness with style, and outside awaits a sunny terrace with views of the greenery. Ample parking makes the restaurant just as easy to reach for a business lunch as for a festive dinner.

On the plate, Sam Wils brings Belgian classics to life with fresh, seasonal regional produce. Plaice with gray shrimp in champagne sauce, royal vol-au-vent with Mechlin chicken and veal meatballs, refined fish dishes and surprising vegetarian creations go hand in hand with an affordable wine list.
