The story
't Pachthuis is a farm-to-table restaurant at Gentse Steenweg 264 in Zottegem, Belgium, and Gault&Millau gave it 14 points in 2026. The restaurant also holds a Michelin Recommended mention for 2026.
Chef Pieter De Keyser cooks here with his wife, Silke Amant, who welcomes guests as host. The couple deliberately limit the number of guests so they can run every service between the two of them. Gault&Millau pointed to that choice as a sign of the chef's growing calm in the work. The farm-to-table cooking is listed as the restaurant's core approach.
The restaurant describes itself as a meeting point for good food, enjoyment and conviviality. Outdoor seating is available, and parking is listed among its practical features. The kitchen's small guest count keeps each evening intimate.
