The story

De Vijf Seizoenen in Brakel: Modern French Cooking with Local Vegetables

De Vijf Seizoenen is a modern French restaurant in Brakel, at Kasteelstraat 5 in Nederbrakel, 9660, Belgium. Gault&Millau scored it 15 in 2026.

Chef and cooking style

Laurence and Jonas Haegeman, a sister and brother, run the kitchen. Their French cooking works with local ingredients that follow the seasons, so what reaches the plate changes through the year. The restaurant describes its approach as pure, healthy and sustainable.

Vegetables on the plate

Vegetables take a central role here. Gault&Millau praises the chefs for turning them into the most valuable element of a dish. Vegan and vegetarian options are listed among the restaurant's offerings, and the We're Smart Green Guide awarded it five radishes in 2026, a fitting recognition for a kitchen that calls itself sustainable.
