The story
De Stadt van Luijck is a modern cuisine restaurant at Schepen Dejonghstraat 12 in Sint-Truiden, Belgium, and it earned 15 points from Gault&Millau in 2026. The house serves lunch and dinner from a kitchen that draws on Belgian and French traditions.
The chef cooks a contemporary Belgian-French kitchen built on local ingredients and craft traditions. Classic and modern influences sit side by side on the plate. Michelin lists the restaurant as Recommended for 2026, and the menus range from a weekday lunch to longer tasting and discovery menus.
The Easter menu showed how the kitchen works with the season. Trout came with pea and wild garlic, and lamb from the UK was paired with morel and Pertuis asparagus. Dessert was a crème brûlée with rhubarb, Avola almond and yoghurt. The house also hosts wine dinners, including a five-course evening with Burgundy and Piedmont bottles.
The restaurant occupies a 19th-century neoclassical townhouse in central Sint-Truiden. It was once a notary's office and was renovated for a visit by King Leopold II. The interior keeps that historic grandeur, and there is outdoor seating for warmer days.
