I got the yogurt flavor. It was wonderfully smooth and creamy, and tasted like tart frozen yogurt. This location is at the corner of a street that meets Place Flagey, so take your ice cream to the square and enjoy while people watching.

Sensitive ears and sensitive people, especially those with hidden disabilities: this place is to…read moreavoid. I used to love going to this place a few years ago. I went back yesterday, and the music was very loud, not the kind of music you play in a place where people eat, drink coffee, or work. I couldn't eat inside, so I ate outside. The food was not what I had ordered. Please ask for all the ingredients when you order your food. The fruit in my order was frozen, and I couldn't eat it. I asked someone who was working there if they could microwave it. The person laughed (or appeared to laugh) and told me it was supposed to be like that. I said I couldn't eat it like this and that I didn't want to waste food. She did not respond. I was left with my food and had to throw it away. The staff does not make you feel welcome and talks back in an unfriendly way.

We ordered both an iced latte and a café latte and both were quite watery and left a lot to be desired. If you're just looking for a nice place to meet, this would be fine, but go elsewhere if you're looking for a good cup of coffee

I love ordering one of the coffee-based offerings in the cafe along with a bifana and a couple pasteis de nata or rissois (croquettes). At the bakery, I order some rissois or pasteis as well, or torta de laranja if they have it. I just wish they had the names of different offerings in the bakery so I could look them up and try it, but the service has always been friendly in both locations. So grateful we have this so one could get their Portuguese pastry/snack fix on!

The waiter was busy answering orders and prepare take-away while the barista padded hiss shoulder and say I'll take this one. That very mmoment is sweet. A bit crowded because tables are small and close to each other. Ordered the golden milk and sweet pancake. Could it be any better to share laughters with friends and sweets in a cold winter afternoon?

A nice person saw three hungry looking ladies and was so kind to take us in, even the the restaurant was about to close. I took the chicken while the others took the goat meat and let me tell you! Everything that an African restaurant should be in my opinion: classy, super tasty. They had this powder pepper that uplifted the meal without being too strong. To this day I'm looking for that pepper. The waiter completely accommodated us. The kitchen is open so we saw how our food was being made. The meats were melting in our mouths. So well seasoned! I loved the presentation! You could see that they put thought into it and it just appealed to my visual mind. Honestly, you can't do wrong with this restaurant. Did I mention the interior? It's everything my interior design loving self loves!

The ambience of this location really makes it special. I was really looking for a Hallmark movie themed experience and starting here was perfect.

There's an option to pick a box or tin and fill it the cookies of your choice. The waffles themselves are something I can make at home and save the €15. I ordered the basic powdered sugar waffle, liege style. My husband ordered the Belgian style waffle which was topped with macerated strawberries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Again, the waffle and strawberries weren't warm so it was like eating a dry stale cold waffle with cold strawberries and a scoop of ice cream. Disappointing to say the least. I'd pass on this place and stick with the street vendors where you can watch them make it in front of your eyes and served warm.

If you've never had these types of pastries, I would highly reccomended you try. They are often very petit, with intricate twisty shapes. Very different from something like a French pastry. We stopped in on a weekend trip. It is right near the Grand Place, so mark this spot on your itinerary around the palace. The shop is like a scene in Harry Potter. The pastries look magical, glittering with different colors. Sits perfectly in with the surrounding architecture. The shop keeper was very nice and efficient. She spoke to my boyfriend in French and me in English. I bought two pastries. I round pastry with pistachios, and a pastry similar to a fig newton, but with dates. Both were amazing!

You can easily make a meal for two by getting just the kif assortment and eating a lot of bread. But instead we got the kif's, a couscous AND a tagine for two! We were so far from finishing the meal it was comical. House wine is very nice and goes well with the meal. The desserts look good, but as you can see, we did not have room to eat that. The staff are extremely friendly. I saw them accommodate an old man who just wanted to stop in for a dessert. It started dumping rain after so they gave him an umbrella! They also told us we can wait out the rain, but instead we got impatient and just got really wet. (naturally, the rain stopped as we reached the tram station a couple blocks away.) Highly recommended for anyone visiting this part of Brussels. It is hard to escape from the high rent low value touristy areas if you are visiting. Make a point of visiting this part of Brussels to get a different perspective of life here.
