Found this restaurant by accident even though it was in the tourist guide! Didn't know there were…read morebranches in London. Anyway back to the food which I have to say was a delight after all the tourist joints in and around the Grand Place, Brussels. The bread is superb and not only does it look good but I'm pleased to report that it tastes good. Seating is cramped sit in the outside if tables available. The staff are helpful and the menu is straight forward and available in several languages. A mix of salads and quiche main courses with simple but delicious desserts which are on display in the shop window. Even though it was packed you didn't feel that you had to give up your table as soon as the last gulp of espresso went down. Well worth a visit!

I struggle to define Au Pain Quotidien (very roughly translated as The Daily Bread), because it's a…read morebakery chain-cum-cafe-cum-coffee-shop. It's the sort of place everybody loves to have around the corner on a Sunday, so you can throw some clothes on, mosey up, buy a newspaper, sit down and order some food and a fruit juice, then buy bread and some cakes to take away to eat later at home. It's a large chain of Belgian cafes with one key feature - the scrubbed pine tables. There are usually some small individual tables, but if you're on your own and fancy sharing elbow space with others, pull up a stool to the big scrubbed pine table. There's no absolute guarantee someone will talk to you, but it does give the place a very friendly and companionable feel. And the food is wonderful, and inexpensive - big hunks of quiche, the best bread you've ever tasted and elaborate little chocolate and gold cakes can all be yours for under EUR15. And thank heaven there are some branches creeping into London, else I'd be properly homesick for Brussels!

We have ordered (2 weeks ahead) for over 400 euros for our team lunch. Delivery between 10:15 and…read more12:15 arrived before 13:00. We were ok with loosing 15 mins of our lunch break (worse case scenario) but not the whole one. There is no phone number to call. From 11:50 we tried any number we could find online, finally got the Delivery Manager on the phone but learned nothing from her... I have no idea how this rude person still holds her job. I've sent them an email asking for the estimated time of arrival... got a response at 12:18 that there is traffic and manifestations. Exki is about 5 mins away from our office. If I have known they decided to cruise around the whole city I would have gone grab the order myself. The veggie plate was not fresh, it was made 1 or 2 days ago. The sandwiches were ok'ish but definitely not made today. It's just not worth the price and the hustle. Sad.

I ordered a matcha frappe for 3.85 euros. I don't know how much matcha was put in there because I…read moregot a milk frappe. It mostly tasted like whole milk. There was a very slight tint of light green and a few green specks. I watched the barista pour the frappe from the blender into my plastic cup, but the top was too foamy so it was making a mess as she tried to put a lid on it. She gave up and dumped out a bit of the drink, put the lid on, and wiped the side of the cup. There was minimal effort wiping the cup because when she handed it to me, it was still really wet... So little care into my milk frappe and I don't like milk that much ); Besides the fail frappe, the inside is cozy and great for waiting for the train.
