In “The secret of the Unicorn” Tintin buys a model of the famous boat at a flea market. The scene takes place on the Place du Jeu de Balle, Hergé particularly liked this place.

A beautiful design hotel right in the heart of Brussels.

Asian haute cuisine. Highly creative with a very nice natural wine selection. Love this place.

Nice little bar with a pretty diverse crowd, where you can play ping pong while having a beer. Simple but lovely food to go along with your drink. The only downside is the limited beer choice.

One of my favourite gastronomic restaurant in town. If the the old facade (former butcher shop) looks a bit random, you'll find a friendly atmosphere inside and great creativity in the plate — the wine pairing menu is a must.
