Fight Club Brussels

American Style Pizza

Emilia from Brussels

I'm Emilia, I'm Italian and I have been living in Brussels since 2018. I'm a food enthusiast who loves discovering new spots, as well as experimenting with different cuisines by cooking for friends and family. Why Brussels? Brussels is a unique city, a multinational crossroads that brings together people from all over the world and with different cultures. One of the things I lo...
"They serve New York style pizza, so thin and huge. You can choose among the classic Margherita, Pepperoni (with spicy salami), and the pizza of the month!"

While heading down to Saint-Gilles for a show, I was looking for a nice spot for a quick bite. I opened my map, and I found Fight Club among my saved places. I was not ready to fight, but I definitely came there with a beating hunger. I know the first rule of the fight club is that you do not talk about it, but a good pizza always needs to be talked (and written) about.

They serve New York style pizza, which means thin and huge. You can choose among the classic Margherita, a Pepperoni (with spicy salami), and the pizza of the month, and also add some toppings (someone said Stracciatella?). The pizza comes in slices or as a full (huge) pizza, which can feed 2 or 3 people. As the weather was nice and warm, I ate it outside with friends, and with the traffic noise and the siren sounds as the background, we felt for a moment as if we were in the Big Apple (more or less).

A nice list of drinks is available, including a wide selection of vermouth. The show we were supposed to go to got cancelled, but the pizza in Fight Club did not make us feel the evening was completely ruined. Do you know another rule of the Fight Club? If this is your first time at Fight Club, you have to fight. So be ready to eat, and don’t back off from the battle. It’s worth it, I promise!

Brussels Spotter Emilia

I'm Emilia, I'm Italian and I have been living in Brussels since 2018. I'm a food enthusiast who loves discovering new spots, as well as experimenting with different cuisines by cooking for friends and family. Why Brussels? Brussels is a unique city, a multinational crossroads that brings together people from all over the world and with different cultures. One of the things I love about Brussels is the chance to try food from so many different cuisines. You can never really get bored here!

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.

Nona Pasta

Honest Italian food

"Nona Pasta" is my go-to place in Brussels for proper Italian food. Nona uses only organic Belgian ingredients because it's just better that way!

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.

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...

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.

Garcia

Portuguese pasteis de nata

"Garcia" in Brussels is the perfect café to have some pasteis de nata, the delicious Portuguese dessert. If I lived in Portugal, I'd be double the weight.

Parc Leopold Brussels

Parc Leopold

Little gem in the European Quarter

"Parc Leopold" is quiet, it's small and it's hidden. It's one of my favorite places to picnic in Brussels or to rest on one of the benches.
