L.E.S.S Eatery

L.E.S.S. by Hertog Jan*** is the concept restaurant created by Gert De Mangeleer and Joachim Boudens. Driven by their passion for gastronomy, the duo took Hertog Jan restaurant to the highest culinary level, thus earning them 3 stars in the Michelin guide and worldwide awards. Yet, Gert and Joachim felt the need to also share with a larger audience the dishes and drinks they often serve at home. “We believe that nothing beats simple dishes bursting with taste that have been made to share. A meal can only be truly enjoyed in that way,” according to Gert and Joachim. In 2014, drawing inspiration from their culinary trips across Belgium and further afield, they opened L.E.S.S., a restaurant concept based on the ‘Love, Eat, Share, Smile’ motto. Fast-track to 2019: Gert and Joachim have transformed L.E.S.S. to the centre of Bruges
