27. June 2015: Restaurant L’Autre Grain
I kind of randomly encountered this restaurant looking for a place which was close to the hotel I stayed at and through randomly google mapping I found “L’Autre Grain”. When you find the place make sure to not walk by – as the entrance is not as visible as it could and should be. However, […]
27. June 2015: Restaurant De Reften
I found this little gem in a local guide and I must say it was absolutely worth visiting – as a little appetizer besides the usual bread and spread some “parmesan crackers mit raw vegetables and mayo made from anchovies” was served. My personal highlight was the raw cauliflower as I have never had that […]
26. June 2015: Restaurant Au Vieux Bruxelles
It is approximately 5 years ago since I have been to Brussels and funny enough, the first evening in Brussels I unknowingly ended up in a place where closely to where I’ve been 5 years ago. Belgium is – among other things – known for their “Moules & Frites” which is “mussels and fries” so […]
13. May 2012: Restaurant L’Epicerie @Le Méridien Brussels
The breakfast buffet of the Restaurant L’Epicerie @Le Méridien is quite okay but not overwhelming. The breakfast accounts for around EUR 25.00 (do not exactly know as it was included in my rate, so it is a mere guess). The buffet offers fresh fruit, various kinds of bread, cereals, cold cuts and cheese as well […]
12. May 2012: Le Corbeau – The Raven Bar
Le Corbeau – The Raven bar is absolutely amazing. We decided to go there around 2:30am and the place was still absolutely crowded. Getting in is not a problem if you behave. The place was cramped. It is very full, very hot and sticky but it is lots of fun! You have to get your […]
12. May 2012: Belga Queen Club
The Belga Queen Club is definitely the right place to go in the evening. The club is more a cigar lounge – it is the old vault of the former national bank of Belgium. And it looks absolutely amazing. The chairs are very, very comfortable – each chair has its own ashtray and although each […]
12. May 2012: Restaurant Belga Queen
When you are in Brussels, you should definitely go to the Restaurant Belga Queen – not so much because of the food though but because of the location. I had the “Menu Light” (EUR 33.00) which started with the regular basket of bread which was okay. As a starter I had the “Chartreuse of duo […]
12. May 2012: Moeder Lambic Bar
The Moeder Lambic Bar is famous for one thing – the rare sorts of beer they have on their menu. And it is pretty much a place you should only go to if you like beer as they do not have much more on the menu (e.g. no coke [the one to drink]). A beer […]
