The story
For twenty years, Un temps pour Soi has been a quiet refuge in Amay. The name says it all: a time for yourself. Here, the pace slows, and every detail is designed to let guests pause, sit down, and share a moment. Maggy, Constant, Maxim Houpresse, and their team welcome you with the same warmth that has defined the house from the start.
The kitchen works in close connection with local producers, bringing a farm-to-table approach that respects the seasons. This dedication to honest, fresh ingredients is at the heart of every meal. The Michelin guide has recognised this commitment, awarding the restaurant its "Recommended" distinction for 2026 — a quiet nod to the consistent quality found on the plate.
Beyond the dining room, Un temps pour Soi offers two private rooms: a small salon for five to twelve guests, and a larger one for fifteen to twenty-five. Each has its own independent entrance, making them ideal for weddings, birthdays, or corporate lunches. The team tailors every event to the guest's wishes, creating a bespoke experience in a convivial, unpretentious setting.
Whether you come for a weekday lunch, a weekend dinner, or to celebrate something special, the promise remains the same: good food, genuine hospitality, and the freedom to take a breath. As the Houpresse family put it, "Moments gourmands, instants partagés."
