Het Landerhuys is a restaurant located on the outskirts of Beringen, next to the city of Leopoldsburg in Belgium. The restaurant is a large and beautiful house. In front, there are outdoor seats next to the lawn and a beautiful garden for you to relax, eat, and sunbathe during the summer. Inside the restaurant, there are several zones. The walls around the restaurant are made of glass, giving it an airy feel. You can enjoy the view outside. It is a restaurant with a nice atmosphere that is worth a visit in this area.
****-Menu I tried-****
The concept of the food here is international (European) food in a homemade style. It focuses on menus that you can make at home without being fancy. However, it uses good quality ingredients. Most importantly, the portions are large and filling. We ordered this menu.
➡️ Tapas van de chef – ... or a mix of tapas. Although tapas are usually snacks, I can tell you that the portions of this menu can be eaten by 3-4 people. You can order just one menu and go back home full without ordering anything else. If you plan to have a light snack before the main course, you should find a group of 10 people to help you eat it. The set includes...
- Patatas Bravas – Small fried potatoes topped with Brava Sauce, a northern Spanish style. The main ingredients are stewed tomatoes mixed with Tabasco sauce and various seasonings to give it a little bit of spiciness. It's quite delicious.
- Patatas Aioli – Fried potatoes with spices. This time, it's made in the southern Spanish style by changing the dipping sauce to Aioli Sauce, which is served in a separate bowl. It smells of garlic and has a thick, creamy taste. It's fun to eat, but I like the first type better.
- Pork Ribs – Fried pork bones, not seasoned much, served with salsa española sauce in a separate bowl for dipping. The pork is quite hard and cold. This is a dish that I'm not very fond of.
- Tortilla – Thick, soft Spanish omelette with layers of potatoes. In terms of texture and taste, it's done exactly as it should be. But we were not satisfied that it was served cold (again), which is not wrong because tortilla can be eaten both hot and cold, but it just didn't suit us who like it hot.
- Gambas al Ajilo – The shrimps were quite big, stir-fried with garlic and seasoned to perfection. We liked this dish.
- Champiñones al ajillo – Mushrooms stir-fried with olive oil, garlic and spices. Even though it looks simple, I really like this dish. The seasoning was just right. The mushrooms were firm, fresh, crispy and juicy. It was incredibly delicious.
- Onion Rings – Many large pieces of fried onions, with a lemon wedge to prevent the greasy taste. They were fried until crispy and not oily.
- Spanish White Anchovy in Vinegar – Anchovies marinated in vinegar, eaten with pickled olives. It was quite enjoyable, but not to the point of being addictive.
- Spanish Ham – A set of tapas, how could we miss out on Spanish ham? The tray was served with many types of ham and chorizo to try. The quality was good, and the quantity was a lot. It goes well with the pickled olives and welcome bread.
➡️ Sinaasappelsap en citroensap – For drinks, I chose this one because I asked and found out that it was a homemade recipe of orange juice mixed with lemon. Hearing that it was homemade, I wanted to try it. I thought it was some kind of special recipe. It turned out that... it was just orange juice mixed with lemon. It was really sour, but refreshing.
