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.

Almost every day at lunch-time I visit the local grocery store. They sell a lot of fresh vegetables and are very friendly towards children. Visiting this shop is like going on holiday.

They have a really nice natural wine and beer selection. Music is very good selected as well.

Perfect place to have sex.

Right next to the art academy of Antwerp, this small café is a terrific place to sit down and enjoy the view of people passing by. Their coffee is very good and they also have a variety of ways to prepare it, if you're into that stuff.
