LE DÉJEUNER BIEN SAUCÉ
LE DÎNER ARROSÉ

Set on the first floor of the historic Oude Dekenij in the heart of Kortrijk, Chambres d’Amis is an intimate à-la-carte restaurant where the art of good cooking is at the heart of the experience.

At Chambres d’Amis, there are no tasting menus. Instead, you have the freedom to choose what you feel like, and to dine at your own pace. The menu follows the seasons and the best produce available, bringing together new creations and dishes that have marked chef Matthieu Beudaert’s culinary path.

A Family Affair

In the kitchen, Matthieu Beudaert draws on French and Italian culinary traditions, guided by the seasons. Beautiful produce, generous sauces and precise cooking are at the heart of his cuisine. His style is refined without being unnecessarily complex, always putting flavour and the quality of the ingredients first.

His approach builds on a journey that began in 2009 with Table d’Amis in Kortrijk, where he earned a Michelin star. The same focus on simplicity, precision and character now defines the cooking at Chambres d’Amis, where the à la carte format gives guests the freedom to choose, combine and discover dishes at their own pace.

At his side is his son and sommelier, Jef Beudaert. After internships at Nuance and Mondieu, he spent six months in Burgundy at Domaine Georges Noëllat, working under Maxime Cheurlin. Today, he curates a wine list with a strong focus on France and Italy, bringing together established estates, a new generation of winemakers and a generous selection by the glass.

At Chambres d’Amis, food and wine are given equal attention. Matthieu and Jef each bring their own perspective, with a shared sense of curiosity, discovery and the pleasure of eating and drinking well.

More than flavour

At Chambres d’Amis, the experience goes far beyond what is on the plate. Art has a permanent place here, with a new invited artistic intervention in the restaurant each year.

This first edition is presented in collaboration with the Panamarenko Foundation. Curator Jo Coucke has assembled a distinctive selection of Panamarenko’s works and personal objects, including pieces that had not been shown to the public for nearly forty years. The selection also includes the work Panamarenko created for Jan Hoet’s landmark Chambres d’Amis exhibition in 1986, creating a direct link between our name and a remarkable chapter in Belgian art history. Subtle references to Panamarenko can also be found on the menu.

The historic setting of the Oude Dekenij is also an integral part of the experience. The restaurant comprises two spaces: a dining room arranged around the open kitchen, and a more intimate private dining room, where guests can also enjoy an aperitif in a quieter atmosphere.
