I went for the Sirloin Angus Dried Aged and was really not disappointed. (although from tasting my friend's meat it was not the tastiest, but I wanted a lean piece, which also goes with a loss of flavour given by the fat). I took my meat with Archiduc sauce, which was glorious, and it also came with a side of thin crispy fries and a very generous side of lettuce. The red house wine was also excellent. Prices are very decent for this level of service and food quality. I Definitely recommend giving it a try if you are into quality meat. (we did not even look at the rest of the menu as the obvious specialty is beef)

Coming back to Belgium, we were recommended to try out De Troubadour. We unknowingly came into this…read moreplace and only realized later that this was the restaurant we were recommended to try. The menu was pretty long, but I knew exactly what I wanted. Since this was one of the first restaurants we got to go to since our time back, we ordered mussels. I ordered the curry mosselen. The flavors were there, but I would say it was a bit muted. You get this huge pot of mussels, but the secret is that the broth and the flavors are always towards the bottom. So if you're trying to get all the flavor, head there first and then get some of the mussels that have been just sitting in that broth. Overall, I thought De Troubadour was great. I would definitely come back here and eat again. Service was very accommodating with families as well.

Dear reader, Domus…read morein Leuven was the perfect introduction to authentic Flemish cuisine. We were visiting friends who wisely brought us here, and the Belgian Dinner plate offered a proper taste of Belgium with several traditional dishes served together. The Flemish beef stew was my favourite, rich, tender, and deeply comforting, though everything on the plate was delicious. The restaurant itself is full of charm, character, and history, fitting beautifully into the atmosphere of Leuven. Everyone we encountered was incredibly kind and welcoming. An English menu was readily available, and ordering was completely effortless. A thoroughly memorable meal and a wonderful local experience.

Pizza is OK. They serve ONLY Pizza, no salad. Everyone gets a starter with yesterday's pizza…read morecrusts, served cold, but at least it comes with a good pesto dip. No frills. They don't slice the pizza for you. If you share, they don't bring an extra plate. When requested, they bring you an empty pizza pan. No deserts. Just pizza. NOTE: CASH ONLY. Otherwise they do take the local bank's debit card. If you are a traveler, they don't take VISA, MC or AMEX. No notice posted about that-- so big surprise when checking out. We had slightly less cash than the bill. Also, they charge 3euros to share a pizza! . They dropped the sharing charge, so that our total cash-in-pocket ended up sufficing. That was nice, but they took 30 minutes to come up with that idea. We offered to wash 3 euro's worth of dishes. Not pleasant.

After living abroad for 3 years, my NYC-born-and-raised partner misses bagels, something we haven't…read moreseen outside of the US. So when we visited Leuven and he discovered there was a place called Nosh specializing in bagels, there was no doubt we would go...like, the very next morning. Nosh is in a perfect location to have breakfast in Leuven, right next to Grote Markt with a nice size terrace. We visited on a lovely summer day but it was a bit breezy so we chose to sit inside. The interior is nicely decorated with fun colors and a few cozy spaces, rather than one big open room, so it felt quite inviting. And the staff were all super friendly and attentive. We even chatted with the owner (who is great!) about how Nosh has evolved over it's 19-year history in order to meet the ever-changing tastes of Belgians and tourists over the years. I ordered the Nosh Breakfast (18-19€) which included a bagel (I chose wholegrain) served sandwich-style with scrambled egg + bacon, plus a side of 2 American style pancakes with fresh fruit + maple syrup on top. My partner opted for an Everything bagel with a couple fried eggs. My partner commented that his bagel did taste like an Everything bagel - so they got the seasoning spot on! - but the bagels weren't as dense as in the US and didn't quite have that satisfying "chew". They are more roll-like in texture. My breakfast sandwich, while good and filling, was missing sauce or cheese or fresh greens - something that would take it to the next level and make it stand out. The American pancakes, however, were just like home and satisfied that craving nicely! Even though we visited for the bagels, the food ended up being secondary to our wonderful experience with the owner and staff. B O T T O M L I N E : Worth a visit if you're spending a day exploring the historic centrum!
