This is my favorite place to go to – to escape the city quick – in nature. I love the Braem Pavillion a lot – built by Antwerp architect Renaat Braem in 1969.

Amazing Tibetan food in Antwerp's Chinese district. Try the laaping!

To recover from my Heideggerian confrontation with "das Sein-zum-Tode", I visit this small town. Right across the market square, there's a bakery that sells the best comfort food in the world. My tummy already hurts from looking at all those real Belgian chocolate treats. Legendary!

No they do not serve schnitzel, it’s next to  Veranda one of the best low key gems in Antwerp... Creative clever dishes, without too much hocus pocus. Natural wines.

Stroll in this beautiful park while visiting an outdoors museum.
