Gent Restaurant Reviews
In Gent, high-class establishments stand next to modest brasseries where you can enjoy just a drink or a snack. Although many serve food all day long, it's safer to respect regular lunch and dinner hours, which are noon to 2 and 6 to 9. Regional specialties include waterzooi (traditional Flemish stew, usually with chicken or seafood) and paling in't groen (eel in a green-herb sauce). A 16% service charge and a 19% V.A.T. are always included in the tab. Although tipping is not unknown, you don't need to leave a tip unless you receive exceptional service. Rounding up the bill is sufficient.
