Food and Drink
Brussels is one of Europe’s gastronomic capitals and you’ll find far more on offer than just chocolates and beer. Mosselen-frites, or mussels and chips, features heavily on many menus, but also look out for rabbit cooked in beer, Flemish beef stew, sausages and waffles.
Shopping
The best souvenirs to take home from Brussels are chocolate, lace and tapestries, and there are weekly antique and flea markets. Opened in 1847, the Galeries Royales St Hubert house elegant specialist shops beneath ornate glazed roofs.
Where to Stay
Those looking to take in the architectural heritage of the city will enjoy staying close to the Grand’ Place. Alternatively, those who enjoy quiet evenings may prefer hotels in the European Quarter, close to Leopold Park.
Insider Tip
Visit Tintin and Snowy at the Belgian Comic Strip Centre, where you can enjoy themed exhibitions from the library of more than 25,000 comic books.
