Restaurant A'Qi thrives on contrasts. Never taking anything for granted and daring to go against the flow have proven to be a recipe for success as the restaurant has recently been awarded a Michelin star. Two chefs, Arnold Hanbuckers and Karen Keygnaert, both strong willed, with great personality and their own voice. Their kitchen is a dialogue. Every plate that is presented has been carefully composed by their four hands. Their inventive, colourful cuisine fuses Asian refinement and Western culinary tradition, a combination of nature and culture. A deep love for pure raw materials and unrefined nature result in exquisite dishes with a hint of the exotic and eccentric, but always well-balanced and never over processed. A good product doesn't need many embellishments. Getting this balance 'just right' is the biggest thrill for the chefs and the greatest delight for their clientele.

God created food, the devil created the chefs. (Culinair Genootschap Heemskerk)
This book, even before opening it, is one of the most beautifully designed books we ever reviewed. A restaurant (coffee table) book with stunning photography and plenty of product information. An absolute must-have for every respecting foodie. (www.sterrenkookboeken.nl)
Chef Arnold Hanbuckers still has it; a fantastic 17 out of 20 in the Gault Millau guide and the recently awarded Michelin star for the 69 year old chef of Restaurant A'Qi is more than deserved. (Het Nieuwsblad, November 20th, 2012)
Enjoying the stunning food design in this book is the next best thing to dining there yourself. (Agnes Goyvaerts The Happy Eater/De Morgen Magazine, June 2013)
