Dries Henau and Yuri Vandenbogaerde, or ‘the guys’, behind the concept of the WASBAR, opened their luxurious ‘haute éclairs’ shop Chez Claire in Antwerp last Saturday. Next Friday, 9 March, their second location in Ghent will follow. At Chez Claire you can taste éclairs in 13 different flavours while enjoying a glass of Cuvée Claire or a great cup of coffee. Like we wrote in an article in December in which their plans where revealed, if you like éclairs, some new addresses if you’re visiting one of these cities!

Qualitatively sinning with haute éclairs & champagne at Chez Claire

Dries & Yuri made their name and fame in 2012 with their innovative WASBAR concept, which gained a lot of international press and won several awards worldwide. In 2015 the WASBAR was sold to Top Brands. The éclair, the ‘patéke’ of their grandmothers, does make a comeback this spring! Chez Claire will introduce the haute éclair. In no less than 13 flavours (including pistachio, salted caramel crisp and triple dark chocolate) and a version for fans with food intolerances, Chez Claire puts together a nice menu that you can taste on the spot or take with you wrapped as a gift. Chez Claire does also offer its own brand champagne ‘Cuvée Claire’, so that you can consume your favorite flavour éclair on the spot with a glass of champagne. If you prefer something more traditional, you can also order a cup of coffee. Design studio Pinkeye is responsible for the design of the new store, they were also involved in the WASBAR. Chez Claire is expected to open at the end of February.
