Delicatesse Declerc Brussels

Cheese overload

Anna from Brussels

About me I'm a big advocate for a rounded approach to life, meaning that I want to see the different sides of a process to understand the final product better. This is why I work in event planning for large European events, I volunteer as a catering manager at TEDxBrussels and constantly explore the city in my free time.

Delicatesse Declerc will offer you all the cheesiness you've been missing in the heart of Ixelles. Soft creamy, old, blue, any type of cheese you might think of you will be able to find it here. On top of that, the multilingual shopkeeper pours his heart into every order. Ask him what his favorite of the day is and he will happily chat with you about his passion.

Is cheese not really your thing? He also sells some charcuterie and even pre-made apéro like boulettes, cheese fritters, and more. Jam from the local farmers and some other goodies can also be found here.

I usually pass by on the weekend after my trip to the Asian store opposite Declerc where I stock up on curry paste and cooking wine. Then I make a little neighborly chat half in Dutch, half in French about events coming up like Eurovision, the football World Cup final, or big film festival down the street and feel like I can almost call myself a real Bruxelloise.

Les tartes de Françoise

Heavenly pies

At Tartes Françoises the pies look and taste homemade - they are to die for. My personal favourites are the banana bread and the mini gourmand.

Le Cercle des Voyageurs

Restaurant with character

In my opinion, there is no better place in the city center to enjoy a good glass of wine with a fine dinner at a fair price than at Le Cercle des Voyageurs.

Le Wappers

Untouched pub with live music

Le Wappers is one of those timeless neighborhood pubs where the tables and chairs have been polished by generations of locals and the TV is always on (unless there's a concert).

Filousophe

Bar and events venue

The name is a play on the word 'filou' (crook) but I assure you that this place is worth its weight in gold.

Le Canard Sauvage Brussels

Le Canard Sauvage

Restaurant and bookshop

The vibe is retro and boho, reminiscent of a canteen: parquet floor, recovered school tables and chairs, old fashioned posters.

Momade Cupcakes

My fairy-tale pastry shop

The display is adorable; the teal wall beautifully compliments the sofa overflowing with cushions, and the little alcove gives you all the privacy you need to indulge (i.e. stuff your face)
