Comme chez Soi
Restaurant in Brussels, Belgium
Comme Chez Soi is a restaurant in Brussels, Belgium, which has garnered 2 Michelin star in its lifespan. The chef is Lionel Rigolet, Gault Millau's Belgian Chef of the Year 2007.[1]
The restaurant was founded in 1926 by Georges Cuvelier, originally a coal miner from the Belgian Borinage region. In the 1930s, it moved to its present location, an Art Nouveau house at the Place Rouppe/Rouppeplein in central Brussels, where it obtained its first Michelin star in 1953. For 27 years (as of 1979), it was rated with three stars. In 2006, it was downgraded to two stars after chef and owner Pierre Wynants announced he would step down in favour of his son-in-law, Lionel Rigolet. In 2022, Comme chez Soi lost another star, currently rated with one Michelin star.
