There is always something interesting about discovering a restaurant that has only recently opened, especially when there is a personal story behind it. This time, our destination was Lumea, a family-run Asian restaurant that opened its doors just six months ago in Bettembourg, a short walk from the train station. The name itself has a … Continue reading Lumea Bettembourg: A Little Asian Escape in the South of Luxembourg
Sometimes the best restaurant discoveries are the ones you weren’t even looking for. And Savory Yak is definitely one of those. I came across this Nepalese restaurant in Pétange completely by chance, in the former location of Chez Doudou. They’ve been there for around 16 months, and somehow I had never heard of them. Which, … Continue reading Savory Yak – Pétange, Luxembourg
Lately, I’ve been trying to get a little more out of my usual area when choosing where to eat. It’s very easy to fall into a comfortable bubble and always pick restaurants close to home, especially when life is busy. But Luxembourg is small, and there are plenty of places worth driving a little further … Continue reading Räiskär in Strassen: Chinese cuisine with a refined touch
Luxembourg’s food scene keeps growing, but every now and then a restaurant opens with a concept that genuinely feels new rather than simply adding another option to an already familiar category. That’s exactly the feeling I had when visiting Kanpai, a new Japanese restaurant in the heart of Luxembourg City. The name Kanpai means “Cheers!” … Continue reading Kanpai Luxembourg: a New Kind of Japanese Experience Arrives in the City Centre
If you have not been to Odum for lunch in a while, it might be time to change that. The restaurant has recently introduced a new lunch menu with more flexibility, more choice and, most importantly, more reasons to skip the à la carte. One of the biggest improvements is the wider selection of main … Continue reading Odum Fusion launches a refreshed lunch menu in Luxembourg City
When it comes to Indian cuisine, I’m quite demanding. Over the years I’ve tried many restaurants, but recently I realised that I still hadn’t found an address in the South of Luxembourg that truly made me want to come back again and again. That’s exactly why Khukuri Restaurant in Dudelange had been on my list … Continue reading Khukuri Restaurant Dudelange: authentic Indian & Nepalese flavours that completely surprised me
If you are looking for an elegant French brasserie near Luxembourg-Gare, without the place feeling too stiff or overwhelming, Brasserie Alfa, inside the Marriott, is definitely one to keep on your list. The Bar We started the evening at the cocktail bar, which honestly deserves a little moment on its own. The atmosphere has this … Continue reading Brasserie Alfa: French Brasserie Vibes with a London Twist in Luxembourg-Gare
Sometimes the best places are right next to you… and somehow you still forget about them. I first visited Como Restaurant years ago, shortly after moving to Esch. I remember it very clearly: I was pregnant, I remember what I ate, and mostly, I remember how much I enjoyed it. Then life happened, and for … Continue reading Como Restaurant in Esch-sur-Alzette: a rediscovery just next door
Some places come with a bit of personal history attached. For me, Mansfeld is one of them. It was actually the very first restaurant I visited when I arrived in Luxembourg back in 2006, and for several years it stayed one of my favourites. So, coming back after the change in ownership felt a bit … Continue reading Mansfeld, Luxembourg: a lovely rediscovery
Some places don’t need trends, smoke machines or fancy storytelling.They just need to do things properly. North Bay is one of those places. Tucked away on rue Nicolas Martha, North Bay opened in 2021, right after Covid, at a time when opening a restaurant felt almost rebellious. And yet, here they are — quietly building … Continue reading North Bay — Homemade, Honest & Comfortingly Good
