If you can’t snag a reservation at one of the trendy pop up
restaurants in Brussels, try Belga Queen. The foie gras with Belgian
chocolate was to die for. I mean, really? Foie gras and chocolate? Together?
Heaven.
And speaking of chocolate, you can’t visit Brussels without indulging in three
things: Chocolate. Beer. Frittes. For a gluttonous day, walk the streets of the
old town and sample the chocolates at the plethora of chocolate shoppes: Leonidas, Neuhas, Mary, and Galler are just a few of your options. The Galler “Cat Tongues” are quite
popular.
Then go on a fritte adventure. Every local has their own idea of who has the “perfect frittes”—we asked. I enjoyed Fritland…and be sure to ask for the secret sauce—Andalusian Sauce. It’s kinnda like the Animal Style at In N Out. It’s not on the menu, but most people seem to “know” about it. And be sure to wash it down with a favorite local beer, Jupiler.
