Restaurant Passion

by tRiSh - Thursday, December 29, 2011

When we moved to Gent in 2007, we received a map of all the pubs there and BabyLuv & I decided that we'd go to all of them. Unfortunately the map teared when I tried to move it to another wall and I had to throw it away.
Early November 2009, I got a new similar map but it pointed all the Gentse restaurants! This was just perfect because we adore going to the restaurant. So we decided to try every restaurant in town. What a challenge! We're on the right track already and we still go to our favorite places often but we like to try a different one now and then.

Our choice today went for a restaurant called Passion, which is situated in the middle of the centrum, with a great view over both the Sint Niklaas Cathedral and the Belfort. Perfect!

The service was very nice and pleasant, the guys were very friendly and joking around a bit. I loved the welcoming atmosphere and the lovely and warm decor.
The food was delicious: Peter chose a typical course from Ghent, the Gentse Waterzoi. He said it was very good and loved the spices in it. I chose the sole, served with French fries and some salad, suggestion of the chef. I was very surprised by how good it was! I'm not a big fan of whole fish dish: taking out the fishbone can be so annoying. But it was so easy and the texture of the fish was perfect!
