Boulangerie Alsemberg Brussels

Lots and lots of snacks!

"Aside from amazing bread, Boulangerie Alsemberg has snack such as borek, samosas, Moroccan crepes and, of course, a huge array of sweets and cakes."

The Boulangerie Alsemberg is always stacked with bread, but what brings me here are the delicious snacks they sell. Borek, samosas, Moroccan crepes and, of course, a huge array of sweets and cakes. They also have some nice juices and some basic dairy products if you're ever in need. Normally I get one of their round breads and a spinach pastry on my way home.

If you're in Brussels for a little bit longer and want to make your own breakfast/lunch with bread, definitely get a box of their bread on TooGoodToGo. Their surprise package costs 4 euros, and normally, they just ask for your bag and fill it to the brim with all the bread they won't sell anymore. If you are lucky, you will even get some beignes (sugar donuts)! You just pick it up right before closing and everybody is happy that the bread won't go to waste and they still made some money with it.

Chou Sando Brussels

Chou Sando – Sandwiches Japanese style

Sando is a nice nickname Japanese use for sandwiches. I love it! Sandwiches have a sauce more or less spicy and are filled with veggies and/or meat or tofu.

Le Corbeau Brussels

Le Corbeau – Fun dancing on tables

There's nothing in Brussels like "Le Corbeau". It's a brasserie, a local restaurant/bar, but at night it becomes the opposite of Cinderella's fairytale...

Zinneke Brussels

Zinneke – The other statue

The "Zinneke" in Brussels is a statue of a dog that, to me, is an accurate symbol of my city with so many contrasts, but that likes to laugh about them...

La Cambre Abbey Brussels

La Cambre Abbey – Abbey, park and arts in the city

"La Cambre Abbey" is an abbey tucked away in a corner of a small square in Brussels. I'm sure most visitors never notice it. It's a precious gem.

Bois de La Cambre – Preferred spot for a sunny day

"Bois de La Cambre" is the preferred spot for me on a sunny day in Brussels. There is more to this park than a spot to have a picnic.
