The story
At Paardenmarkt 53 in the historic heart of Antwerpen, Schnitzel is a straightforward, focused restaurant that has earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand for its good quality, good value cooking. The name tells you what to expect, but the execution lifts it beyond the ordinary.
The restaurant is open from Wednesday to Saturday, starting at 18u, and offers a menu that changes with the seasons. While the website does not list specific dishes, the Bib Gourmand recognition signals that every plate is prepared with care, using solid technique and fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, with outdoor seating available for warmer evenings.
Schnitzel is a place built for sharing — the tag "Sharing" hints at a menu designed for the table, where plates arrive and are passed around. The interior is simple, letting the food speak for itself. Reservations are recommended, and can be made online. Gift vouchers are also available for purchase, either online or in the restaurant without extra cost.
