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.

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 ramen place in town, with a limited choice but well-executed recipes. Also one of the very few restaurant in Brussels where you can sit by the bar. Rare bonus: they serve Uijin from the tap!

One of my favorite places. No reservations though but great food and homey atmosphere.

The most quiet and freshness place you can find.
