The story
In the quiet village of Our, near Paliseul, La Table de Maxime stands as a destination for those who seek cooking of the highest order. Chef Maxime Collard’s restaurant has earned two Michelin stars for its precise, modern interpretation of French cuisine – a recognition that places it among Belgium’s most accomplished tables.
Maxime Collard is the force behind the kitchen. The restaurant bears his name, and his personal approach defines every plate. While the menu changes regularly to reflect the seasons and the chef’s evolving vision, the philosophy remains constant: refined flavours, technical mastery, and a deep respect for ingredients. The dining experience is one of quiet confidence, where each course builds on the last.
The restaurant sits within a small estate that also offers high-end accommodation. Guests can stay in the “Jardins de Maxime” – country lodgings – or in “La Fabrique du Pré Maho”, an ecological treehouse retreat. The property includes outdoor seating, air conditioning, and ample parking, making it a comfortable base for exploring the Ardennes region.
La Table de Maxime is open from Wednesday to Sunday. The menu and carte change regularly, so each visit offers something new. The restaurant closes for several periods each year; advance booking is essential. For those who appreciate modern French cuisine in a serene, countryside setting, this is a table worth travelling for.
