The spirit of the arty, well-heeled Sablons neighbourhood is visible in the colourful artwork and even more so on the terrace of this buzzy brasserie. The menu offers a patriotic line-up of heartwarming Belgian specialties such as filet américain (steak tartare), vol-au-vent or brains with a gribiche sauce (boiled egg, mustard, herbs). If you take a peek at the larder, you will see just how fresh everything is in this culinary landmark of Brussels, as popular with the locals as with the tourists.
