Lunch at the Nonbe counter, on the RestoDays menu

Three courses at the Nonbe counter for 41 €: mackerel, teriyaki chicken and a yuzu dessert. RestoDays at Nonbe runs until Saturday 24 October.

A lunch tray at Nonbe in Belval with teriyaki chicken, shredded cabbage, rice, miso soup and a small bowl of sauce, beside a yellow I Love Belval panel reading RestoDays, Nonbe, Lunch at the counter, three courses, 41 € at lunch, until Saturday 24 October.

Today I had lunch at Nonbe, at the counter.

It’s a long wooden counter, the kind you can rest your elbows on. Wine glasses stand in a line along it, waiting for the evening. Small potted plants sit in a metal tray by the bar, and behind them red bowls are stacked high, ready for whoever comes next.

If you asked me where to eat best in Belval, I would send you here. I’ve been before, and today was as good as it always is. The difference was the menu: it’s RestoDays, the fortnight when restaurants across Luxembourg put a fixed price on three courses, and at Nonbe lunch is 41 €.

In short: RestoDays at Nonbe is three courses for 41 € at lunch or 48 € at dinner, until Saturday 24 October 2026. Booking through RestoDays takes a 15 € prepayment, which comes off the bill.

First, the mackerel

It arrived in a glazed bowl with green brushstrokes around the rim. Three slices of mackerel, laid over each other so the silver skin caught the light, a few small leaves on top, wasabi to one side and soy in a dish of its own.

It’s the kind of plate you look at for a moment before you pick up your chopsticks.

Then the tray

The main course came on a wooden tray, and it took up most of my stretch of counter. Teriyaki chicken, glazed and sliced, under spring onion and sesame. A small hill of finely shredded cabbage with a single cherry tomato on top. White rice in a blue bowl. Miso soup in a wooden one, with fried tofu floating in it. And a little bowl of sauce on the side.

Everything was exactly as it should be. By the time the bowls were empty I was more than full, and there was still dessert to come.

And the dessert that changed

The menu promises a yuzu cheesecake. On my day the kitchen sent something else: a soft rolled sponge cake under a yuzu cream, with a slice of orange, a slice of apple and a strawberry beside it.

I’m telling you so you’re not surprised if it happens to you too. I didn’t mind in the slightest.

How to book

Book on restodays.lu, or on Nonbe’s own reservation page: choose the Izakaya experience and write “Resto Days” in the comment.

When you book through RestoDays, you pay 15 € upfront to hold the table, and it comes off the bill at the end. The booking is binding, so pick a day you can keep.

Nonbe is open Tuesday to Saturday, from 11:50 to 14:30 and from 18:30 to 23:00. It’s closed on Sundays and Mondays, so the last two RestoDays days are Friday 23 and Saturday 24 October.

The other Belval kitchens taking part are on the RestoDays page.

After Saturday

The RestoDays menu ends on Saturday, but the counter stays, and so does the kitchen that made my lunch today. I’ll be back.
