Took about 30-45 minutes to get my sandwich and there were about only 4 people in front of me. My…read morebrother told me to come try this place out. I can see why it takes so long. The owner is so passionate and friendly and tries to strike up a conversation with every single customer, no matter where they're from. I thought the customer service was next level. As for the sandwich, I want to preface that I don't eat regular sandwiches. I'm super picky and usually just get meat and cheese. NOTHING else. So his sandwiches weren't really my style. They looked very good but I know I wouldn't enjoy it if I just ordered off the menu. He puts a ton of fruits and cheeses into your sandwich and asks a bunch of questions of what you like before putting it together. I went for a blue cheddar cheese and since I wasn't getting anything else, he cut a gigantic chunk for my sandwich. The only downside is I think the only meat he uses is small salami slices. He put in triple the amount he usually puts but the cheese still took over the whole sandwich (I ended up buying more meat from the grocery store to fill it up). Every sandwich he makes is the same price and comes with a drink. I wanna say that his normal sandwiches are probably amazing. Mine was okay after I added all the meat into it. I also didn't eat it right away. But I think the customer service itself should receive 5 stars.

Be prepared to wait. I mean it. You can get there and only see a few people in front of you. You…read morewill still wait. From my review, you can clearly tell it is worth the wait. There were 4-6 people in front of us. It took us about an hour waiting. I hate to keep harping on the wait time but setting expectations is key. There is even a story posted on the window about the wait time. So why the wait? Tonton Graby provides individual attention. You can order off their limited menu or just talk to him about your feelings, likes, and dislikes. From there, you get a tailored cheese sandwich exceeding any expectations you might have built up. You don't pay until you've at least tasted it - even if you opt'd for take out. "If you don't like it, I'll eat it" the owner will tell you. You might opt for fruit or veggies on top. You can add meat. There is a small area to eat in if like us you were in no hurry. A sandwich with meat ran 9 euros as of this writing. They accept credit but prefer cash. Enjoy!

We opted to go with a few slices of cheese and a baguette, and it was so delicious. There is an overwhelming selection of cheese, and we really had no idea where to start selecting cheese to buy. The woman behind the counter picked two cheeses for us, a cow's milk and a sheep's milk cheese. Both were great and we finished them while walking around Brussels. Our lunch was a little pricey, but totally worth it, along with experience of buying local cheese in a lovely setting.

We had grabbed a baguette from Charli and he even let us borrow a knife to cut and spread our cheese while we sat out in the square. We went back again later in the week to try their sandwiches (the sell out so get there early in the lunch hours) and they were great as well. They take credit card so no concerns there either.

The coffee and chocolate croissant were delicious, but my favorite item I tried was their smoked salmon sandwich, with a special cream-cheese spread and sprouts.

I wish I had known they close early and on weekends just because I would have liked to order another sandwich before leaving! Can't beat the prices, quality, and taste. I just wish they opened later than 3pm!They also have wifi which they will be happy to give you if you ask!

This location is at the center of a lot of the major tourist attractions and is therefore great if you're looking for a quick, on-the-go breakfast or lunch without having to sit down (though that is still an option). Panos is a chain bakery/sandwich shop and was recommended by one of the aunties. Stuff you can find here includes sandwiches, wraps, soups, sweet and savory pastries, individual loaves and rolls, salads, coffee, and hot chocolate. Super basic, but high-quality stuff compared to a lot of other chain bakery places we saw as we traveled through Europe. Some of those sweet pastries were just really fancy looking for what's supposed to apparently be a very basic place, while even the basic stuff tasted really delicious. Their croissants were also super delicious, and I thought the raspberry croissant was particularly interesting. This particular location is on the street branching just off Grote Markt (Grand Place) and just across from the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert's southern entrance. It was near where we were supposed to meet up with our tour group, so we dropped by very quickly to grab some breakfast. My chief memory of that morning was that their waffle honestly made me feel better about the first half of the day.

The thing is that I probably should eat the waffles, but seeing them piled high with delicious cream and a multitude of fruits, they are hard to resist. So, I decided to get one from here.

Needless to say the waffle was okay, not actually not hugely fantastic - I guess like in a lot of cases my eyes ended up being much bigger than my stomach.

So which is it Break Point? When visited the place the first time, I was looking for a place where I could eat pasta: which is incredibly hard in the city center. I ordered the salmon pasta to the kind waitress. My order arrived shortly. I enjoyed it although I had to adjust the spices a bit *I haven't found a restaurant who just gets it right with the spices, why is everyone so afraid of salt?* The interior is very nice, very open with a comfy nook in the back. There's also the possibility to eat outside but it wasn't appealing to me. There's oil on the table (excellent for the pasta). I used the restroom which was modern and very clean; like they all should be, right? Their position is also ideal, it's in one of the side streets of Anspach. I recommend the place if you're looking for a quick bite to fill a hungry stomach.
