The partner's word

Humus x Hortense is a plant-based fine-dining restaurant in Ixelles that pioneered “botanical gastronomy” through botanical research. It pairs an ethical plant-based philosophy with plates shaped by the founders’ Ter Duinen training and backgrounds in art and photography, and sources produce from the wild farm Le Monde des Mille Couleurs. The team is part of a collective with a food scientist and a botanist/wild farmer, helped found the Soilmates movement, and holds a Michelin star (2023), a Michelin Green Star (2021), Gault & Millau sustainability awards and listings on We’re Smart Guide and 50 Best Discovery. The dining room reflects an artistic, handcrafted sensibility, with interior design and homemade ceramic tableware made by the team to create an intimate, carefully curated atmosphere. Cuisine is plant-based, seasonal and botanical, presented as changing tasting menus that prioritize local and wild sourcing. The kitchen applies zero-waste techniques and ancient preservation methods to reduce food waste. Beverage programmes pair cuisine-inspired cocktails and botanical non-alcoholic arrangements developed in-house, drawing on Caroline Baerten’s WSET sommelier and mixologist training. Nicolas Decloedt (Chef) co‑founded and leads the restaurant with Caroline Baerten. Specialities include a botanical tasting menu guided by the year’s 24 microsaisons; buckwheat crackers with Belgian chickpea houmous; celeriac “Paris Brest” with quince and horseradish; wild mushroom gyoza; and Belgian saffron broth ravioli.
