Preuverie
Hasselt, Belgium
The read// why locals go
Preuverie has spent years proving that a vegetable can carry a plate as convincingly as anything else, and Hasselt has quietly agreed. Tucked on Paardsdemerstraat, a short walk off the centre, it reads as an ordinary Belgian restaurant until the menu arrives: an unusually long run of vegetarian and vegan dishes, with meat and fish kept on as options rather than the main event. That inversion is the whole point, and it is done without ceremony or lecture. A three-course lunch lands around 28 euro, which is why locals treat it as a regular rather than an occasion. There is a terrace, a room for larger tables, and in summer a run of barbecue evenings.
