Humus x hortense is a secluded place where guests are invited to step into kairos time, to experience the rhythm of the earth’s heartbeat. So that small gestures and unique objects can offer a moment of stillness amid the hustle and bustle of this world.
Sustainability and aesthetics are in the DNA of humus x hortense. The restaurant is not merely a place to dine. Under the artistic direction of co-owner Caroline Baerten, humus x hortense is a creative platform to highlight the rich Belgian tradition in design and craftsmanship.
