Count down to Christmas with us during our Advent lunch at restaurant Aurum.
Chef Arne Beirinckx and his team have put together an all-in Sunday lunch on December 7, 14, and 21.
Each lunch will begin with an aperitif at our Christmas chalet in the castle’s courtyard.
With a focus on the finest seasonal ingredients and the castle’s authentic atmosphere, we offer the perfect setting where gastronomic cuisine, tradition, and cozy charm come together.
At the end, you’ll get to choose a gift from under the Christmas tree and who knows, if you’re truly lucky, you might just pick the Golden Ticket, worth an overnight stay at Kasteel van Ordingen.
