""Ecuries van de Tram" is a local bio market/social house at the very center of Schaerbeek, Brussels. It's a cultural project with a 'slow-food' spirit..."

What an interesting venue! The name says it all; “Ecuries” because these rooms used to be the stables of the horses pulling the tramways in the good old days, and “tram” because the whole building, owned by the STIB, is one of Brussels’ oldest tram “warehouses”. It’s still used as a tram depot, and it’s quite cool to be able to have a drink while looking at them through the windows.

Les Ecuries van de Tram is a local bio market/bar/social house at the very center of Schaerbeek. It’s a cultural project with a “slow-food” bio human spirit, where friendly merchants sell their ecological products. During the cold months, the Ecuries hosts the Apero du Parc on Fridays (at Parc Josaphat during nice weather months), and it is just the coziest and friendliest place to hang out. Enjoy the fireplace (I loooove fires during the dark winter months), the good music, the welcoming neighbors, and the industrial-brick vibe of the entire place. The only thing that's a bummer about the Ecuries van de Tram is their opening hours – there's so little of them! But they keep developing this creative concept, so hopefully they’ll extend that as well…

Perché rooftop bar – Drinks with a view

The Perché rooftop bar is on top of the JAM hotel, which is why not many people wander up here, but it's so worth it! It has a great view and comfy chairs.

Kaiju – Casual Asian Dining

Kaiju are giant monsters featured in Japanese fantasy and science fiction films and television programs. Once I stepped into this place, it all made sense.

Mammouth – Lunch café near Gare du Midi

"Mammouth" is a bright, tasty oasis in the gastronomic desert that is the area around the south station of Brussels. Try the tarte aux noix if you find it.

Thai/Laos streetfood – Teleport to Southeast Asia

The Parvis de St Gilles market on Thursdays is the place to be! They have many stands, but my favorite is the Thai/Laos traiteur Bounthong Luangsouphom.

La Taqueria – Mis tacos son tus tacos

Mexican dishes with popular central American influences. But be ready to share: the options are way too many (and delicious) to just get one dish.

Le New Chattouille – Cats' crib

"Le New Chattouille" in Brussels is the city's very own cat café! It's a bit expensive, but it's good for the kitties, and, who am I kidding, I love it too...

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.

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...
