Whether it’s before seeing a movie or going for drinks (around good old Halles St-Géry), I often find myself in the center of Brussels or in St-Catherine wanting to grab a quick bite. A few years ago, the limited options included Quick Burger fast-food places and kebabs. Enter Knees to Chin.
I may have called it a healthy snack joint, but Knees to Chin can absolutely constitute a fully-fledged restaurant as well. The main attraction here is the Vietnamese spring rolls. They are colorful, consisting of innovative combos of fresh ingredients and accompanied by delicious sauces. There are also very respectable vegetarian options, but I can recommend everything, including the side dishes! Another good thing is that they change their roll selections rather often, so you can’t get bored. My favorite is still the bacon roll though!
There are three Knees to Chin; one on rue de Flandre, one (almost) on rue Bailli and one on rue Livourne (in St-Boniface). All locations are around many awesome bars and shops, so there’s always an occasion to go and grab a Vietnamese roll.
