The Snow Wok at the Saint-Jansplein in the north of Antwerp provided my stomach already many times with delicious food. The place itself is really simple and is equipped with just what a kitchen needs to serve food. You can enjoy it inside, but mostly I take it away. The food is freshly made right in front of you and the staff is always nice and patient.
At the left top of the store you will find a little shrine for the Dalai Lama, which seems to lend me some of his serenity while I'm waiting for my food. It's a true pearl in the neighborhood. The portions are big and the prices are low. If you are a student, you even get a 20% discount between 12:00 and 18:00.
I recommend the spicy chicken soup, the Dim Sum mix and the Phat Thai Noodles, as well as the rice with red curry.
