Michelin star chef/owner Sergio Herman and his former Chef patron Nick Brill opened this contemporary restaurant in a chapel of a former military hospital. The Jane is one of the trendiest places at the moment in Antwerp with an amazing interior. The 80 seat restaurant was full lunchtime on a Thursday.
The well balanced and creative menu is served by an attentive, happy and helpful staff.
There was one menu available, together with the amuse bouches we have received 12 courses for 155 Euro.
Wine pairing is available for 75 and 95 Euros, the non alcohol- pairing is 65 Euro.
All of dishes were prepared and plated with care and attention. Some unusual ingredient pairings appeared at the table, such as chawanmushi carabinero with sea urchin and truffle soy vinaigrette, wild pheasant with paktmushroom and chicory. Our favourites were the oyster ceviche and the risotto with eel and herbs but all other plates were also 10 out of 10
Lunch was finished off with 2 incredible Jasper Valley (Massachusetts) cheese and a mind-blowing good cheesecake. Less

The restaurant is located on the 9th floor of the MAS museum in the heart of the harbour of Antwerp.
We have invited our local friend to join us for dinner, all 3 of us were looking forward to a memorable dining experience. The restaurant is modern, stylish and spacious, with a lovely view of the harbour. The welcome and the first half of our dinner couldn’t have been better. We have all opted for the 8 course menu. Have received plenty of different amuse bouches and nibbles. The bread selection is great. Our favourites were hazelnut burrata with leeks, bears garlic and capers and the hare with celeriac, green pepper and date malt. For whatever strange reason there was an unacceptable long break after the langoustine dish, we have waited over 30 minutes to receive the eel and then another 20 minutes the hare dish. In the meantime there was no communication from the staff towards us, that there was a delay in the kitchen….Finally we have received our food which we couldn’t fault all was delicious but the lack of proper service communication has put us off a bit.
Great cheese trolley with the highest quality of national and international selection.
Our reservation was for 7.30 pm and we have left the restaurant after midnight. Less

Third visit but still love the concept of dark room and light room. The quality of food, drinks and wine is outstanding. I really understand why this is one of the hottest spots around the globe for dining. It is not easy to get a table but once you enter This amazing kitchen restaurant, you will enjoy a typical van South African atmosphere with outstanding food and wine which would easily survive in Europe with the same concept. One of the most interesting parts at this restaurant is that they not only serve different kind of wine pairings, they also serve an exceptional tea paring which I have not seen around the globe so far. Compared with all the juices, beer and nonalcoholic pairings you get in Europe it combines food and they’re really delicious dishes much more and you do not have the feeling that you have to Menüs at the same time.

The third visit at Frantzén’s in 2018. I really love that place, an outstanding restaurant concept with outstanding hosts, a really exceptional wine list and delicious dishes. The atmosphere, the people, and of course also the well designed and created dishes make this place to be One of the hotspots around the globe and definitely the hottest spot in Europe at the moment. I already booked two times for 2019, as I enjoy this experience so much. Less
