Stade Constant Vanden Stock Brussels
RSC Anderlecht home
Wouter from Brussels
Eric Cantona once said you can change your wife, your politics, your religion, but never ever can you change your favourite football team. I think he's right. The Constant Vanden Stock Stadium is the home ground of RSC Anderlecht and the location of some of the biggest joys and minor tragedies in my life. I'm too young to have attended the glory times a couple of decades ago, when they reached 7 European finals in a timespan of 20 years, out of which they won three, but I did see them beat Man Utd, Real Madrid, Lazio Roma, Porto & others and unfortunately I saw them getting kicked out of Europe too many times too.
And, before I continue, I know there are more important things in life, so yes it's 'only' football, but "amongst all unimportant subjects, football is by far the most important"... thanks John Paul II for that one.
Metro 5 and a five minute walk will get you from the city center to the stadium, home fans get out at St-Guidon, visiting fans at Veeweyde. The regular competition of the Belgian top division usually starts begin august and lasts until the end of the winter. The last couple of months the top-6 play play-offs until mid may. The stadium itself hosts ticketing offices, a restaurant and the official fan-shop. Outside you'll have a cosy time during game evenings thanks to the bars, snack bars and food trucks with hamburgers, french fries and beers. Mens sana in corpore sano.

Chez Monsieur Yang
Chinese Hot Pot
You order a bouillon, which can have different bases, meat or veggie options. Add the sauces, what you would like to eat and then the magic happens.

CHARDIN
Salty waffles and tasty burgers
The crispiness of the chicken perfectly matched the softness of the freshly made waffle, and the teriyaki sauce was just the “savory” cherry on top.

Joseph Marien Stadium
Art Deco in sport
"Joseph Marien Stadium" in Brussels doesn't look like a stadium - it's another Art Deco building that fascinates me with its long, beautiful facade.

Altitude 100
Highest point in town
"Altitude 100" in Brussels is a fascinating place in the commune of Forest in Brussels. I like it's a church in the center of a big roundabout!

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!

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...
