Located in the Hornu shopping center/"strip mall", this seems to be the only place there to eat…read more That's OK though, because this place isn't bad at all. We stopped by today, having been shopping, and sat outside in the tropical Belgian sunshine and had a couple of St Fleuillien beers and some food. I had a roasted chicken sandwich on a baguette/French bread and my lovely wife had a panini Parmigiana, with the main ingredient being egg plant. Yeah, a chicken sandwich isn't hard to do and it was basic; nicely roasted chicken and a nice spreading of mayo, along with a little bit of salad on the plate. Hey, I really liked it! The Parmigiana was enjoyed too and she even let me taste hers. I'm getting that next time! Cannot say much about inside because I just glanced through the window. It looked clean and spacious. Best of all, the waiters were very attentive and didn't seem to make anybody wait long for their food, drinks and then bill.

To say I was pleased finding this spot is an understatement…read more The decor, the vibe, the food, the service, the cleanliness...all great. Nice variety of burgers, students' menu, kids' menu, tapas, salads, chicken, pork, ribs, fish, hot dogs and milkshakes!!! They also have a good selection of drinks, and yes, that includes alcoholic beverages. The waiter (and I believe the owner) was very nice and spoke a little English. It is close to the Saint Ghislain train station. There are also stores nearby. Definitely returning.

Tasty American themed Diner placed in a nice downtown in Sainte Ghilan. I find the options to be…read moretypical of a diner with a Belgian twist. Burgers, hotdogs, salads, fish options, ribs, and chicken options for food. Drink menu consist of well drinks, American soft drinks, and shakes. Starters are listed as Tapas. They have jalapeno poppers, mozzarella sticks, onion rings and various other options. We had burgers (Mexican burger, Bacon cheeseburger), a chicken skillet (almost like a fajita) and a kids meal. Shakes are standard and also alcoholic based. I find the shakes to have tasted very good. Service is above par for Belgium. Prompt greeting, quick return from time of order to table. The atmosphere is very 50's diner. Reservations are a must because they fill up fast. Make sure to try if in the area. Definitely recommend.

This buffet is really good. You pay about 11 Euro for all you can eat. If you want to add all you…read morecan drink, then its 16 Euros. We started off with some soup - there were two different kinds. Next up was the sushi. It wasn't a large selection and there wasn't tons of it but there was enough. This was followed by some noodles and different meats and vegetables. Next, a stir fry wok plate of food. YOu just put whatever fruit and vegetables onto a plate, bring it to the guy running the wok and he cooks it seasons it up. And of course the important part is the dessert. For this, you can make your own crepes, although I think in a microwave, just heating some up. I went for the ice cream, as always. There was a choice of about a half dozen different flavors. Also available were several types of cakes/pastries and some fruit. the Tiramisu was great. What I did notice but didn't rry was that you could cook your own meat and vegetables on a flat grill. You just cannot beat the price and the food was delicious.

We were heading to a soccer game in Boussu to see the local team, Francs Borains play. Well you…read morecannot go to a game on an empty stomach, so we spotted this place on the way. The frites looked pretty good but I have had a week of frites, so opted for just the pita sandwich. Well, I assumed it would be wrapped in that flat bread but nope, it was a full sized baguette (French bread) so lots more to chew. I had samurai sauce on it. My buddy had some chicken brochettes. Like most friteries (if not all) the food is all thrown into boiling fat. Not great for the arteries but not bad tasting either. Drinks wise, we had a Jupiler beer each. Other than that beer, there is also water and some soft drinks. There is also a big television in the place, so could be good for frites and football/soccer!

I heard about another Asian restaurant right next to this one through a friend. When we arrived at…read morethat other one though, it was about to close, so we went to this one. (You following me so far?) This place does a buffet all-you-can-eat. Now I heard about the sushi at the other place, so that is why we were heading there. This place had a bit of sushi too, but very little, so not the ideal place for what I was after. They did have just about everything else though! I think it was about 18 Euro something per person, which is somewhat more expensive than the other one (that was about to close). Still, for that price and what we ate, it was money well spent. Now I'm not going to go through what was on offer because I don't know what most of the stuff is called. Take my word for it though; it was delicious. I mean everything was delicious! You could also order a "menu" with drinks, but since I only planned to have just the one, I didn't bother with that. Up to you! But I will go back to this place. Well, maybe I'll try the place that I wanted to go to originally but was about to close, first!
