The story

Pluriel: Wood-Fire French Cuisine by Chefs Loélia & Vadim in Transinne, Belgium

A Restaurant Built Around Fire

In the small village of Transinne, just south of Libin, Pluriel is a restaurant that puts the hearth at the centre of its identity. The kitchen is open to the dining room, allowing guests to watch as chefs work with a wood fire that serves as both primary cooking tool and natural flavour enhancer. The result is a sincere, immersive experience in a warm and authentic setting.

The Couple Behind the Stoves

Chefs Loélia and Vadim met on the benches of the Ferrandi school in Paris. They refined their craft in some of Europe’s most celebrated kitchens: Taillevent in Paris, Massimo Bottura in Modena, and Arabelle Meirlaen in Belgium. Their different cultural backgrounds inspire a cuisine without borders. At Pluriel, they give free rein to their creativity and love for gastronomy.

Cuisine and Cellar

The cooking is described as gastronomic and unpretentious — generous, creative, and built on sourced, seasonal products. The wood fire is the main tool, adding a new dimension to each ingredient by developing its natural flavours.

The wine list is given equal importance. Pluriel works daily to enrich its selection with new references and winemaker encounters, offering a wide range of prices and a suggested food-and-wine pairing.

Menus are available in several services for lunch and dinner, with larger menus served on Friday and Saturday evenings. The restaurant also welcomes private events for 30 to 60 guests.
