My hubby is from Belgium and he is very proud of Belgian foods. When he lands in Belgium, the first things he will eat are the Fries and Brochettes...and beer, of course! And a good Filet Americain inside a good baguette. I am hungry just thinking about it!

Places I enjoy eating at in Brussels: - L'Intermezzo, if I want to have pasta - Gatsu Gatsu, for a quick noodle fry - Bia Mara, a Fish & Chips place where I go to eat their spicy Cajun Chicken (as I don't like fish) - Le Conteur, for some really delicious middle eastern food - My favorite place for fries is Fritland - As an alternative to Waffles, visit Maison des Crêpes - Or try Lilicup for some cupcakes - Try Feux de Bengale if you're craving Indian food - Yaki, near Sainte-Catherine has the best Panaeng curry - And finally if you'd like to try some really good horse steak, take a 10 minute train ride to Vilvoorde and visit "De Kuiper". It's the only thing they serve 🙂 Happy to see you enjoyed your time with us though.

I just came back from a Europe trip where I stopped for some days in Bruges, Ghent and Brussels. I had some GREEEEEAAAAAT food! I LOVED the "stoofvlees" which is the beef stew, but it was served with fries, not mashed.... probably my favorite food in ALL of Europe, for me anyway. I wish I had seen your video. So much I missed!!!!!!

As a Brussels resident let me say that Tonton Garby is a terrible place with only tourists as customers. If you want good sandwiches there are plenty of places but a standout is Catherine a cheese and cold cuts store that also does sandwiches. The cheese is perfectly aged (as opposed to Garby's garbage) and the bread is outstanding. For fries forget your choices. instead go to Patatak with home made sauces, or the fry stand on Place Saint-Josse or the two Tabora stands. And for beer there are so many more pleasant places to try the hundres of Belgian beers than the Delirium mess.

@carol3640 10 ай бұрын

With all due respect, I disagree regarding Tonton Garby. 😅 I work nearby and every time I pass by Tonton Garby at noon, there's a long line of mostly locals standing there (en général, ça parle français ;-)), who work in the neighborhood and are on their lunch break. I have yet to meet the first tourist or international person who knows about this place. Also, Garby is a nice man who deserves his success. So I agree with this review. (And I am not related to this man or his business in any way.)

@richardharris8867 10 ай бұрын

@@carol3640 The place is an internet star. Don't agree about the clientele . However nice Tonton is his cheese is not matured so mostly tasteless (I tried three different sandwiches). The thing is there are at least five places downtown with much better product and many others with better product.

As a Brussels resident, I've known Tonton Garby for more than twenty years and been his local customer when his shop was in Molenbeek, so long before he moved to the city centre. I've always found him to be a competent shopkeeper and gourmet. He's a seasoned traveller, with a genuine interest in many culinary traditions.

What a difference between the Netherlands and Belgium in terms of food! Most Belgians are gourmets (and quite knowledgeable about wine, to match with the food), while the Dutch just have no culinary culture.

I have watched dozens of Brussels' food vlogs...and this one is the best!!!!! You have to tell me your secret though. No other vlogger got it right like you do. You seem to have found (mostly) all great places to eat. You missed one or two but then they are places that many Belgians want to keep non-touristy 🙂. Anyway, great job!!! Maybe you should contact the Brussels tourist board. They should pay you for making such a wonderful overview of the foods to eat when in Brussels.

Speaking as a local, places to avoid = Kelderke, Le roi de la gaufre, la Belgique gourmande, delirium bar, all the restaurants between the beginning of Rue de la Montagne going to the end of the street (Place Agora) : they are nasty tourists traps (nothing's home made, some of these places have high hygiene problems and their food is junk food). Places also to avoid = all the restaurants in the Rue des Bouchres around the St. Hubert's Galery. Avoid places where you have that little blue french fries man (or a huge ice cream) = tourists traps. Avoid places where they have coca cola refridgerators. But otherwhise, I see you have found other good places. Ofcourse, we as locals are not going to tell where we go out for food and drinks ;-) but your video is good for tourists and visitors - without falling in these tourists traps. Bon appétit!

Indeed, nearby I would advise l'anatheme or the new brasserie in the bourse for the food and tpoechenelekelder or le coq for the beers.
