Lilicup Brussels
Cupcake heaven
André from Brussels
Once upon a time there was a fairy who baked scrumptious cupcakes in all colours and tastes and children and adults alike loved them! The fairy part is not true of course, but all the rest is. The place is called Lilicup. It is a small outlet with an outsized smell that wafts out to greet you when you are still metres away. It is no surprise that children love the place, but adults can indulge too. Cupcakes, in fact, come in two sizes, large and small. And it’s not what you think: the children always pick the larger size!
At Lilicup you can choose to take the goodies home or eat them on the spot and wash them down together with a pot of tea or a cup of coffee. Their cupcakes may not be the cheapest in town, but once you sink your teeth into that soft icing, you will admit that one has to pay for quality.

Greek Delicatessen in Schuman
My favorite is Spanakopita, a buttery & flaky phyllo pastry with a filling of cooked spinach and feta cheese. For dessert I recommend a slice of Bougatsa!

La Boule d'Oro
Brasserie as good as gold
"La Boule d'Oro" is my personal no. 1 brasserie in Brussels. This corner cafe resembles my primary school cafeteria & has excellent Belgian food & beer.

Cemetery of Brussels
In the city of the dead
The "Cemetery of Brussels" (opened in 1877) was designed as an English landscape garden - get lost among avenues and cobbestone streets here...

Le Monts des Arts
Magical sunset view
"Le Monts des Arts" is my favorite place in Brussels, as all my friends know already - especially the esplanade at the end of it. Just go at sunset...

España Calidade
Authentic Spanish meat
At España Calidade they hang around twenty types of dried ham on big hooks around the store, in between the huge paella pans and spicy peppers.

Théâtre l'Improviste
Creative evening ensured
They look at each other and then it starts right away, no time to think, they just do. What I love most is the conversations you have afterward...

Viva Lasagna
Mouthwatering lasagna
I especially love their chicken lasagna because it takes away a little bit from the heavy pasta dish but still fulfills all of your carb cravings...
