""Fritland" makes Brussels French fries (ironic, I know), but I really recommend you skip them and try a mitraillette - theirs is the best in town..."

The world refers to them as French fries, although there is no population in the world that eats more of them and they were invented here, in this country. You spent all your money in chocolate stores and you're running out of budget? Or you're just looking for some quick and cheap snack?

Try a typical 'frietkot' and head to Fritland, located in the tourist heart of the centre. Ready in a minute and you can eat them inside, outside on the terrace or as takeaway to enjoy your meal at the steps of the Bourse.

Skip the french fries, you'll find them better elsewhere, and try a mitraillette, Fritland has the best ones in town. No fear, no one will get harmed, it's just a baguette with hamburger, lettuce, baked onions, cocktail sauce and - of course - Belgian fries.
