The story
Chai Gourmand sits at Rue Chainisse 53 in Beuzet, Belgium, and serves modern cuisine that earned one Michelin star in 2026. The restaurant lists its address under Gembloux, 5030, and the kitchen is the reason it holds that recognition.
Pierre Massin leads the kitchen, with Bastien Massin and Quentin Allaert on the cooking team. Reviewers describe him as a skilled technician who avoids unnecessary complexity. His modern cooking is appealing and controlled, and a few garnishes are often enough to give each plate his mark.
The menus change in small steps, with one or two new dishes at a time, following the season and the market. Recent courses have included langoustine in a bread crust with Parmentier broth and caviar cream, and Iberian presa with cheek ravioli and a caponata of eggplant and peppers. Dessert has featured melon and watermelon with lemon and mint sorbet, or nectarine with vanilla and redcurrant. Lunch runs on weekdays only, while the evening menus are priced at 90 and 130 euros per person.
Gault&Millau rated the restaurant 16 in 2026 and praised the building for its wide views over the countryside, describing the room as elegant and welcoming. Wine pairings start at 25 euros for lunch and reach 60 euros with the Menu Gourmand, with a Sélection Gourmande option for guests who want a more considered list. Laurent Lebrun and Chloe Vandeweyer look after the dining room.
