Perché rooftop bar Brussels

Drinks with a view

"The Perché rooftop bar is on top of the JAM hotel, which is why not many people wander up here, but it's so worth it! It has a great view and comfy chairs."

This rooftop bar is a bit hidden away, most people don't know it exists or walk right by it every day. The Perché rooftop bar is on top of the JAM hotel, which is why not many people wander up here, but it is so worth it! It has a great view and comfy chairs. Their drinks are a little more pricey, but eh you got the view.

I spent my first few nights in this hotel (which also has a very comfortable hostel-like dormitories) so it has a special place in my heart. Moving to a new city is scary, so the place you land during your first week is crucial. I used to come up here to the rooftop just to take in my new home and get a little bit of an overview. A big plus for the hotel guests is the pool: klein maar fijn as we say in Dutch (small but good). The pool is restricted to hotel guests, but the bar is open to anyone!

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.

Nona Pasta

Honest Italian food

"Nona Pasta" is my go-to place in Brussels for proper Italian food. Nona uses only organic Belgian ingredients because it's just better that way!

Le Corbeau Brussels

Le Corbeau

Fun dancing on tables

There's nothing in Brussels like "Le Corbeau". It's a brasserie, a local restaurant/bar, but at night it becomes the opposite of Cinderella's fairytale...

Zinneke Brussels

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 Brussels

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.

Bois de La Cambre

Preferred spot for a sunny day

"Bois de La Cambre" is the preferred spot for me on a sunny day in Brussels. There is more to this park than a spot to have a picnic.

Garcia Brussels

Garcia

Portuguese pasteis de nata

"Garcia" in Brussels is the perfect café to have some pasteis de nata, the delicious Portuguese dessert. If I lived in Portugal, I'd be double the weight.

Parc Leopold Brussels

Parc Leopold

Little gem in the European Quarter

"Parc Leopold" is quiet, it's small and it's hidden. It's one of my favorite places to picnic in Brussels or to rest on one of the benches.
