Hidden vegetarian gems in Brussels, Belgium. Monday, March 22, 2010. In case you weren't aware, Place St Job is one heck of a dining bonanza. Avenue Jean et Pierre Carsoel, running down the hill into the square, is lined with restaurant after restaurant - every one that I've tried makes for a great night out. Prime restaurant real estate! It was. The flavors were (obviously) diverse and I was very aware of different taste sensations happening in different parts of my mouth. But the flavors never ...The b...

Brussels Sprout: In the Element
http://bxlsprout.blogspot.com/2010/07/in-element.html
Hidden vegetarian gems in Brussels, Belgium. Monday, July 26, 2010. One of those old favorites was L'Element Terre, which we visited last week on our farewell tour. This is one of Brussels' vegetarian restaurants, in the sense that they serve scampi. But they also offer plenty of "real" vegetarian options, based on a round-the-world theme. Chaussee de Waterloo 465. Tel 02 649 32 27. Closed Sundays and Mondays; reservations generally a good idea, particularly for garden seating in the summer. I spent my f...

http://bxlsprout.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Hidden vegetarian gems in Brussels, Belgium. Thursday, December 24, 2009. Tom) Yam = Yum. On several occasions, a colleague has recommended Tom Yam to me. Never one to turn down Thai, last night I rounded up a few friends to check it out and it is indeed a yummy stop-off. I'm always a bit overwhelmed by the Asian options in the ULB area, so being pointed to one particular place was welcome. The restaurant is cozy and just about every seat was full - always a good sign. Chaussée de Boondael 341. Cupcakes ...

Hidden vegetarian gems in Brussels, Belgium. Friday, August 27, 2010. We're in the midst of moving madness, which has also meant a barrage of farewell dinners, often at our favorite haunts.

Brussels Sprout: February 2010
http://bxlsprout.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Hidden vegetarian gems in Brussels, Belgium. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. If you're only gonna do one thing, do it well. I really thought I knew every vegetarian restaurant in Brussels - at the very least, I thought I'd heard of them all. Then a few nights ago, a friend and I were looking for a dinner that wouldn't break the bank, and sure enough, there was Mr. Falafel. The owner is from Holland - he doesn't speak French but English or Dutch are fine. He's also very friendly. According to him, whe...My po...

Hidden vegetarian gems in Brussels, Belgium. Tuesday, January 26, 2010. It was time for a dinner five years in the making: L’Atelier de la Truffe Noire. After strong recommendations by a friend when I first moved to Belgium, I promised my then-boyfriend that when I finally nailed down a job, I would treat him to a meal at this Avenue Louise establishment. I now have three concurrent jobs nailed down and decided that for our second wedding anniversary, I might as well fulfill an old promise. I started wit...
