Tin Tin Murals everwhere...
Lovely intricate architecture (with chocolate shops dotted all around)...
Two classically 'Belge' starters ordered for us by some nice friends of Jodi's: Les Croquettes aux Crevettes (a shrimp based croquette - pierce the beautifully deep fried croquette and its like shrimps in a roux/mayonaise filling! And in the background - Les Tomates Crevettes - tomatoes filled with shrimp - which comes from the north sea. C'est Bon!
I liked the gravy boat for the ubiquotous mayonaise (so good with des frites!) and the butter ceramic pot was good looking too!
The most Belge of them all - les moules frites! These mussels (at the height of their season now apparently) were so sweet, small and delicate to eat. They were Moules Mariniere - cooked in a stock with celery, carrot and garlic.
