Les Petits Bouchons Brussels
Zwanze kitchen
William from Brussels
You might have been reading about my love for Brussels and the fact that people don't take themselves too seriously. A "zwanzer" is a typical nickname for the inhabitants of Brussels. It means someone who's always kidding about everything, someone who enjoys company, good food and a couple of good beers or wines.
This place is made for zwanzers, for people who like to sit down, relax and enjoy fresh food with some friends. Les Petits Bouchons is situated in the Uccle area, which is not so close to the city center but you can reach it by tram.
This place is a typical Brussels "bistro", with a lot of wood, some mirrors and old-skool lighting and the most beautiful counter. The menu is a selection of traditional dishes with a twist of typical Belgian food.
Tom, who is the owner and chef and his wife are the most friendly host you can imagine and will give you all advice necessary on the menu and wine or beer selection.

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!

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.

Cool building in the center

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
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.
