4/9/19 – Antwerp – The Jane

The Jane is housed in a repurposed chapel of a military hospital which makes for stunning setting for this lover of architecture and food.  The restaurant suffered a fire after I booked and was closed for several weeks.  I was afraid that our reservation would be cancelled but the stars aligned.  This lunch was delightful.
