Almost 10pm and my husband and I were feeling peckish. We’d only had a sandwich each from Le P’tit Normand hours ago, and our stomachs were demanding something more substantial. That’s when Black & White Burger came to mind – just a minute’s walk from our Aparthotel Adagio Brussels Grand Place, right next to Galet […]
Aux Merveilleux de Fred is this artisan French patisserie in Brussels that specialises in traditional Flemish meringue treats. They’ve got two spots in the city—one’s a pure takeaway patisserie, the other’s a tearoom where you can actually sit and enjoy your sweets with a proper coffee. Stumbling Upon Aux Merveilleux de Fred Grand Place I […]

If you love European architecture like I do, Mini-Europe is one of those attractions in Brussels that’s really worth making time for. I was most excited about visiting Mini-Europe when I was doing my research and planning this trip. The thought of seeing all of Europe’s most famous landmarks in one place sounded pretty fun. […]
Daily Chicken has opened at Waterway Point, taking over the old Tiong Bahru Bakery space. I was excited because their Bugis Junction outlet has been on my list forever, and now I don’t need to travel to town. Daily Chicken is a family-friendly Korean restaurant by the team behind Daily Beer. They specialise in Korean […]
Chez Léon was on my to-eat list the moment I arrived in Brussels. Really wanted to try a traditional Belgian meal and this place kept popping up everywhere when I did my research. Established in 1893, this family-owned spot is best known for its mussels and frites. No fancy concept, just good Belgian food done […]
