La Paix by David Martin
Brussels, Belgium; Corinthia Grand Hotel Astoria, Rue Royale 103, 1000 Brussels, Belgium
La Paix's move to Corinthia Grand Hotel Astoria changes the geography of one of Brussels's most distinctive restaurant stories. David Martin's cooking now has a central-city home on Rue Royale, bringing the restaurant into the setting of a restored grand hotel. The new address matters when booking: older reviews and directions refer to Anderlecht and describe a different room. Martin's culinary language draws on French technique and a sustained interest in Japan. That combination provides a clear reason to follow the restaurant into its latest chapter. The hotel's dedicated La Paix page presents menus and reservations, alongside chef's-table and private-dining possibilities, allowing guests to choose how closely they want to engage with the kitchen's work. The former Anderlecht restaurant held two Michelin stars in the May 2026 guide. That distinction belongs to the documented location and edition; recognition at the new premises should be checked separately. La Paix nevertheless merits inclusion for the strength of its chef's established voice and the significance of the move. It is a choice for travellers interested in Brussels's evolving restaurant landscape as well as its settled institutions.
