Cozy and Belgian
Posted by pieguybxl on September 8, 2009
Three huge boulettes, or meatballs in tomato sauce, lay on my plate, accompanied by a side salad and metal bowl full of frites (9 euros). The other foreigners around me were eating stoemp, carbonnade, and plates of mixed greens and shrimp, along with their golden beers, as the multilingual waitresses brought out the comfort food with ease and a smile. The setting was small and cozy. The brick walls were lined with local decor, and the inviting lighting reminded me of home. How Belgian! What an appropriate place for dinner during the last fading warm days of summer in Brussels.
