Candle-lit bar with a remarkable hostess. Difficult to explain, you have to experience it. Not exactly cheap but you'll see that one drink easily takes an hour.

Belgian dishes in an amazing old warehouse setting. A bit on the pricey side and staff can be arrogant, but if you love architecture, you should go 😀

My favorite neighbourhoods

For now, just one: my own! (the rest of my favorites are spread out over the city)
I love my hood! Admitted, it is a bit on the rougher side and not the cleanest if places but I adore the social mix op people and places that come with it. For drinks and/or food, go to Treck * WOEST * Cafe Congé * Superkelly If you are looking for some culture: Check the program of social-artistic hub Bij' De Vieze Gasten for live music, theatre or other kinds of performances * De Koer for more alternative/experimental performances and activities In for a walk in pure nature? 1km away from the house, you find the nature park Bourgoyen-Ossemeersen.
