Authenticiteit, ambachtelijkheid, traditie en topkwaliteit: dit zijn de belangrijkste troeven en waarden van Elixir d'Anvers. De goudgele kruidenlikeur uit Antwerpen wordt nog altijd volgens hetzelfde recept gestookt als in 1863, het jaar waarin François-Xavier de Beukelaer volgens de overlevering de laatste hand legde aan zijn heerlijke uitvinding.

In dit salontafelboek neemt beroepsAntwerpenaar Tanguy Ottomer je mee naar de stokerij: naar de productiehal waar Elixir d’Anvers gedistilleerd wordt, en naar de bedrijfsarchieven waar een kleurrijke en indrukwekkende verzameling historisch promotiemateriaal bewaard wordt. De geschiedenis van de stichtende familie de Beukelaer is er tastbaar.

Vandaag is het bedrijf in al zijn nostalgische pracht in handen van de familie Nolet de Brauwere, die streng waakt over de kwaliteit van het product, en tegelijk het merk en het bedrijf klaarstoomt voor een mooie toekomst. Dat die er veelbelovend uitziet, blijkt duidelijk uit de getuigenissen en de recepten van Elixir d’Anvers-fans uit de wereld van de gastronomie: chocolatiers Erik Goossens en Dominique Persoone, cocktailcreator Beka Gogeshvili en chef Seppe Nobels.

Bekroonde stadsgids en auteur Tanguy Ottomer (1981) bouwde zijn eenmanszaak uit tot het succesvolle 'Buro BeroepsBelg' dat verschillende originele stadswandelingen aanbiedt. Zijn spontane aanpak leverde hem veel lof op, onder andere van The New York Times, The Financial Times en CNN, die Tanguy uitriep tot 'one of the 7 savviest tour guides in the world'. 

Hij is auteur van verschillende boeken over de geschiedenis van Antwerpen. Bij Luster verschenen van zijn hand de titels ’t Stad van Vroeger, Uitgaan in ’t Stad van Vroeger, Ondernemen in ’t Stad van Vroeger, Winkelen in't Stad van Vroeger, Time Machine - Antwerpen, Time Machine - Gent en Time Machine - Brussels. Hij is ook de auteur van Handelsbeurs Antwerpen - Past & Present en Antwerpen Zwart/Wit.

So nice I bought twice!
Size: H Desk Unfinished 3/4-in and 1/2-in, Size: H Desk Unfinished 3/4-in and 1/2-in
For starters, this is a great buy if it is exactly what you want. For me that was the case and it would have cost me a good $40 or more to replicate it at a big box store. With that said, if you are not planning on using all of the pieces and want a different configuration, this may not be the kit for you. All of the parts inside are just like if you bought it at a local home improvement store. All the pipes need to be cleaned and protected. I personally found that dish soap (dry off immediately after you clean a piece) was the easiest to clean everything and I finished it with some wax. The kit is sturdy and easily supports the weight of my butcher block tops. I inverted the kit as it is designed as I intend on adding a shelf and am planning on using the support brace to aid in holding that shelf up for cable management. After cleaning and protecting, putting the kit together only took 5-10 minutes and that was with kid disruptions. I purchased 2 so that my wife and I could have matching desks in the office and I couldn't be happier.

Durable and sturdy. I bought two
Size: H Desk Unfinished 3/4-in and 1/2-in
Love the kit. I ordered two to make an L-shaped desk for my home office. Perfect height, looks cool, and sturdy. Slightly tricky to get two of them to the exact same height but you can adjust them buy loosing/tightning parts. Way cheaper than going to the hardware store and buying the same parts. I wiped each piece down as they are a bit dirty/greasy, but no big deal.

Great legs - sturdy when fully assembled with tabletop.
Size: H Desk Unfinished 3/4-in and 1/2-in
These legs are great. I put it together with a butcher block tabletop and it turned out beautifully. I recommend using a level on the legs once you get them into position and again when you place a top on it. The screws included were so easy to screw into the block but that will vary depending on the top you select. Watch the videos another reviewer posted on cleaning the legs with a mild soapy water and dry them thoroughly. It really helped me. Also after it was all assembled I used a clear acrylic - in a spray can to clear coat and seal the legs. I am really happy with it.

Perfect

Exactly what I ordered, took just a few minutes to assemble and mount the legs. Love that the bottoms can be manipulated to give a balanced stance.
