During our summer staycation we tried to visit a few new spots and have dinner with friends on a regular basis. One of those nights consisted of a visit to Gaston, the rooftop bar & restaurant courtesy of Coeur d’Artichaut, in Ghent. This pop-up is now around for the third consecutive year. With the perfect…
