Chez Jacques
Chez Jacques is back in business after its winter break, and we couldn’t be happier! This fish market institution sits just in front of Sainte-Catherine metro station, a place I visit at least once a month. Everything is delicious!
Kline
Nestled in the heart of the Dansaert neighborhood is Kline, situated on the ground floor of the high-end guest house Teddy Picker. This building underwent a complete renovation a few years ago, embracing a stunning brutalist architectural style. The restaurant seamlessly continues this brutalist concept, featuring concrete floors, walls, and clean lines.
In t’Spinnekopke
On a cold November evening, nothing warms the heart like a comforting meal at In t’ Spinnekopke. This historical establishment in the center of Brussels is one of those unique places where you feel like you're walking back in time. The old wooden doors and creaking floors add to the charm and welcome you in like a warm hug.
Jardin des olives
On the Brussels pedestrian street Marché au Charbon sits a little gem: a tiny bistro brimming with charm and warmth, serving bistronomy cuisine in its finest form. It's well worth discovering.
Holy Smoke
Being myself north American, I’m naturally a big fan of smokey ribs and meats. Holy Smoke won’t disappoint your BBQ cravings. With a smoker imported from Dallas USA and using only oak wood to slow cook their meats, it’s absolutely beautiful thing!
Mizu
Last week I was invited to try Mizu, a Japanese restaurant at Châtelain, Ixelles and it was a really great experience. Not only are the dishes fresh and well made, they have a tablet ordering system that allows you to pick and choose as you go along.
Frank
Needing a little me-time before my shift on a Wednesday, I headed over to Frank restaurant for one of their famous eggs Benedicts. I wasn’t disappointed! I was stunned to see this perfect poached egg and mouth watering smoked salmon in front of me.
Nonbe Daigaku
Traditional Japanese cuisine is hard to come by outside Japan. The fine art of washoku can take up to a decade to master and is taught in a hierarchic teacher/student method. Brussels has been blessed with the knowledge of Chef Suetsugu Yosuke, now in his 70’s, who has been teaching his son Kunihiro Suetsugu for 10 years now.
Old Boy
Old boy, an Asian inspired restaurant with so many ideas it will make your head spin! I never cease to be amazed by this place. their Bangkok street food inspiration is creative and simply finger linking good.
