The story

Atelier Noun in Bertem: Modern Cuisine with Japanese Touches

Atelier Noun in Bertem, Belgium, runs a modern cuisine kitchen at Dorpstraat 252, Leefdaal, and earned 15 points from Gault&Millau in 2026.

Chef and cooking style

Chef Bert Castermans and hostess Sandra Ponchaut run the restaurant together. The kitchen builds refined dishes on pure flavours and seasonal ingredients, with a subtle nod to Japanese cuisine. Each product is handled with care and respect.

The menu and the room

The restaurant works with a set menu that moves through a harmonious sequence of courses, with flavour at the centre. Wines are chosen with a playful approach and are often surprising, which suits the food. After a recent renovation, the dining room is warm and cosy, with Japanese touches here and there.
