Alright, it's Saturday evening and you're going out with a group of friends, you are hungry and longing for great food...but no one thought about making a reservation... Only a couple of steps away from the Grand Place there is already a solution to your problem, in Tapas Locas you simply cannot make reservations at all. Order the excellent sangria while waiting for a free table or go and sit right away if there are seats available.
Meat lovers, veggies, lot of appetite or only looking for a nice dessert, all of you can come along in this charming place. The menu isn't limited to Spanish classics as costillas, chorizo frito, manchego and albondigas, there is also a variety of common Mediterranean food like Bruschettina, keftedes with tzatziki, spinache ricotta lasagna with witlof and mussels and they even have some Belgian specialities. No better way to finish the evening ordering one of the dessert tapas. The heavenly crepes, chocolate mousse or the pear-almond cake may start a fiesta in your mouth.
Each tapa costs 4€, the only thing that is mandatory is that they ask you to take at least three portions per person.

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.

"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" 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.
