Out - Premium brasserie in Brussel: La Quincaillerie


A spanish friend of mine, who loves eating and testing new restaurants, worked in Brussels for many years. He told me to go to La Quincaillerie if I had the opportunity to go to Brussel. That opportunity became reality last week because of a business meeting that took place in this city.

Two days before our meeting, we took a reservation with Patricia, a very nice person from the online customer service. I ensure she is a very nice and patient person cause I had to change the time of our supper two times (and two times I received a very polite answer).

The menu is typical from a Brasserie and also presents some interesting dishes: les Huitres creuses de Normandie, Espadon roti, saute de legumes et brochette de tomates cerise grillees, Steak de boeuf grille au piment d Espelette et beurre a l ail ou le Tartare de saumon et concombre, sauce soja (the one I tried and enjoyed).

The restaurant is placed ten minutes from the center by taxi (10 euros from La Grande Place). Here are the details.....and don't miss this place: Rue du Page, 45, B-1050 BRUXELLES, Tel. +32 (0)2 533 98 33
