I have been coming to In Den Ouden Vogelstruys since 2007 when I had my first experience in…read moreMaastricht and I dare say it is one of the reasons I return. In Den Ouden Vogelstruys is a brown cafe with various claims to historical permanence. Take your pick 1700's...1800's...there's even a canon ball stuck in the outside facade labeled 1670. There are a half-dozen bars on this block all beckoning for your hard earned (or recently converted euros). I have sampled them all and In Den Ouden is by far my cuppa. This time I was not alone and wanted to get a second opinion. Kate was not disappointed. We ordered the 4 cheese plate (Limburger, Brie, goat cheese and bleu). Two wedges of each along with a French roll, 4 slices of fruit and nut bread, apple syrup and a salad of grapes, walnuts and rocket all for $13.50. We accompanied this with her local herbed liqueur coffee and my Le Trapp. We had anticipated this to be a simple bar snack but in fact turned into our lunch of the day. We in particular loved the paring of the apple syrup over the bleu cheese and the Brie on the fruit/nut bread. All was yummy and beautifully presented. This was a perfect meal to linger over and be thankful for your blessings. We will come back.

Beer selection is impressive although they were out of the one Chemay we wanted. The olive appetizers were scrumptious. We couldn't get enough of heir home-made 'oil' sauce that the olives came in. I can still taste it a day later and that is a good thing! We had the chicken sate and without doubt, the most tender chicken I can recall eating. Fabulous. The sate sauce was okay, Would have liked a little more 'edge' to it but still it was fine. The portion of fries was HUGE. Very tasty with lots of little side dishes. The garlic mayo was made 'girly' strength. Would have liked something stronger to deal with those pesky vampires! Overall a fantastic meal. Great service. A definite return visit is in order!

John Mullens is a restaurant that attracts many tourist and expats but refrains from taking on the…read moreunsightly pallor of being a tourist trap. I applaud the establishment for being able to balance the demographics of its patrons. Restaurant serves standard Irish Pub fare - fish and chips, Shepherd's Pie, Guiness, Jameson, Black and Tan, etc. Serves breakfast also if you're down for some black pudding, fried eggs, and sausage. Ate a surprisingly hearty BLT sandwich with American style, seasoned curly fries. The bacon was thick, the lettuce was crisp, and the mayo came on the side, without me asking (which was a plus). I wasn't expecting the seasoned french fries, as most everything in The Netherlands comes with pommes, or chips in this case. But, the seasoned fries was a great added touch that turned a good sandwich into a great sandwich. Interior of restaurant is spacious and can accommodate the rugby crowd at the bar, while comfortably seating patrons for meals in the rear of the restaurant. Lesser known fact: buffets can be arranged for large groups. Claim to fame is trivia night on Tuesdays at 8pm. Get there early as it gets crowded very quickly.

The fries were nothing special but the main was a tasty intro to local food, with a side of apple sauce to clean the palate. Mandarin sorbet was tasty and not overly sweet. It has some floral notes, perhaps honey? A lot of things are decorated with this amusing drawing of a man and woman at dinner. The man is licking his plate while the woman is holding it up like a mirror. Inside is on the smaller side, though I may be comparing to American size. It does get kind of loud.

I had the steak filet pure (belgian blue) with pepper sauce and home made fries, and the Bellevue wine.

You can find a lot of these wooden fire bbq like grills restaurants, its becoming a trend in belgium.. Loved it, thumbs up for the staff and chef! one thing it did not really like.. On every table there's a little cup of "fleur de sell" with no spoons or utensil.. I can see people going in with their hands to grab some salt.. looks to me like a very unhygienic hobby..
