The menu lists local cuisine but in reality it’s a cafeteria food sold at gourmet restaurant prices. I ordered Flemish stew described as “pork cheeks made with Westmalle beer Tierenteyn mustard”. Instead I was served primitive and tasteless beef stew with a a couple of green leaves. The owner came owner and begin swearing that it was pork. It wasn’t. He became very agitated and gave some bogus excuse. My wife ordered Val-au-vent. They brought a small pot with processed meat balls and a piece of cheese bread on top. When I showed the owner the picture of the dish, he proclaimed that that’s proprietary restaurant recipe and their Val-au-vent is not like others. Of course not and it tasted like cardboard. Du progres restaurant is a tourist trap and you should not patronize it. I know I never will. Yuck!
