Great lunch

André from Brussels

About me I was born in Malta a few decades ago and spent my childhood running barefoot along the sea. Since then I have lived, studied and worked in various European cities until I settled in Brussels in 2008. The sea, however, stays in my blood. Throughout my life, I have done several things.

Mamy Louise is one of my favourite spots for lunch whenever I want to treat myself to something special. It has a mixed clientele, drawing the practitioners of the legal professions from the surrounding area, older couples all pimped up for a day out in the city centre and interpreters from the European institutions chattering away in various languages. The restaurant offers a typical brasserie menu, which includes salads, pasta, choice meats and fish.

For me, however, what nails it is its display of freshly-made desserts, including a deadly tiramisu, scrumptious strawberries and cream and my favourite, the café gourmand. This is an option found in various Brussels restaurants where you get your espresso accompanied by a small platter of sweet tasters from different desserts. But even if you don’t, you still get a bite-size chocolate brownie with your coffee! Oh, and by the way, don’t forget to book in; Mamy’s food is appreciated by many and it only opens for lunch!

Brussels Spotter André

About me I was born in Malta a few decades ago and spent my childhood running barefoot along the sea. Since then I have lived, studied and worked in various European cities until I settled in Brussels in 2008. The sea, however, stays in my blood. Throughout my life, I have done several things. I have studied Archaeology and spent many blissful (and blistering) moments crouched on the ground looking at the past. Currently, however, my work is linked with the future – more specifically that of the European Union. In between these two ends, I have set up, run and sold my own bu...
